Gagne Traded To Tampa Bay- Flood Gates Unleashed

In the wake of Kovie's signing, Philadelphia Winger Simon Gagne has been traded to the Tampa Bay Lightning for Matt Walker and a fourth round pick. The move was clearly a salary dump by the Flyers, and the trade is just another in a series of excellent actions by rookie Tampa GM Steve Yzerman. Gagne adds depth, scoring, and experience to this roster that is beginning to look like it could vie for a playoff berth.
