It's not everyday you can trade for a first round draft pick and give up very little. Who is Kerby Rychel and why did the Blue Jackets sell so cheap?
While the cleaning crew started working hard after the First Niagara Center on the second day of the draft, the Leafs and the Blue Jackets made the deal that brought Kerby Rychel to Toronto.
Kerby is the son of Warren Rychel, a journeyman NHL player who was more enforcer than anything else. He swung by the Leafs for one season, playing a small number of games, but was soon on his way to the Colorado Avalanche in 1996, where he didn't play much but did win the Stanley Cup.
