What a tremendous move. I won't lie at all, it's a move that can't be bad in ANY way whatsoever.

Because of the respective FA statuses, it has more chance to be nothing for us and something for Colorado. Not great.

We will have an advantage in resigning Anderson if he does well here. I don't think Elliott can be #1 here.

Elliot didn't fit into the plans moving forward (we need someone better), so he wouldn't have been here next year one way or the other. Maybe Anderson plays terrific and likes the city and we get him on a decent 2 or 3 year deal. Like someone else said, we can't lose in this trade.

Do you remember last year's playoffs where they caught him checking out an ice girl in a commercial break and the Sharks scored about 3 seconds after that?

I think we may have found our 1B goalie for next year. Such a solid hockey transaction.

At the very least, things are interesting. Nothing wrong with that.
