First, Eric Fehr was traded to Toronto along with Steve Oleksy and a 4th round pick for Frankie Corrado. This is somewhat surprising, since Fehr just cleared waivers today, but there may have been a concern about the Maple Leafs staying under 50 contracts, thus the Pens springing for Corrado, a player oft-healthy scratched by the Leafs.
