I guess it could happen. The NHL is like that, after all.

I’d still rather see an aggressive trade…but then I suppose real life isn’t like video games, either.

You can’t trade coaches in NHL 09 – I looked everywhere. My Pens are 3-9-2 after sending Beech to waivers and promoting Jeff Taffe to fourth line center. I’m getting owned.

Er, I meant a player trade, like the (pie-in-the-sky, most likely) Staal + Whitney for Heatley trade someone mentioned awhile back.

Oh I know what you meant, I was just saying – I’ve always wanted coach trades or extreme management to that level. I’ve prayed to trade my coach in NHL 09 but then I realize it’s me. Gulp. I suck.

I wouldn’t be opposed to getting rid of either of those guys in some sort of package deal.
