Former Terrier Kevin Shattenkirk was traded by the Avs to St. Louis last night, in a deal that will send himself and Chris Stewart to the Blues for Erik Johnson and Jay McClement. Shattenkirk, who has 7 goals and 19 assists in 46 NHL games this season, will be looked upon to replace the gap in the Blues D-core left by Johnson...
The Bruins were busy on the trade front yesterday as well. They dealt former UDenver forward Joe Colborne, a conditional pick and a first round pick to Toronto for D-man and power play specialist Tomas Kaberle. They also dealt Blake Wheeler and Mark Stuart to the Thrashers for Rich Peverley and Boris Valabik. They also acquired forward Chris Kelly from the Senators earlier in the week. Both Kaberle and Kelly played for the Bruins in their 4-2 win over Ottawa last night...
BU travels down to PC tonight to finish off their home and home with the Friars. As QuackQuack already reported, the Terriers beat the Friars 2-1 at Agganis last night behind a two point effort (1g, 1a) from Matt Nieto. Coach Parker was less than pleased with his teams effort, however, and he let his displeasure be fully known in his postgame press conference (you can find it below). He said that he wasn't sure who would be dressing tonight due to some "stupid plays", which of course is a reference to the scrum that took place towards the end of the game and resulted in 4 penalty minutes each for Alex Chiasson and Wade Megan. Our guess is that either Megan or Chiasson will sit and and sophomore Ryan Santana will play. There's a chance Parker sits both players, but that would mean playing freshman Matt Ronan, who's only seen time in exhibition games. Dave Warsofsky also had a less than stellar game last night, but unless Parker is REALLY pissed off, he'll probably play over freshman Patrick MacGregor...
