The Dallas Stars and the Pittsburgh Penguins. Both are hurting in the defenseman department.
I was a little surprised when I heard that the Stars and the Penguins made this trade. Sydor might just be what the doctor ordered for Dallas Stars, who are underachieving big time. The Pen's get Boucher, who can help run their powerplay, which is key since they lost Gonchar and Whitney. Of course, health is always a concern for this guy so they are taking a chance.
Both teams win with this trade though. They are both excellent defenceman who will both fit in reasonably well with their new teams. I think the fit will be a little quicker with Sydor as he has played the majority of his career with this team.
I however do have high hopes for Boucher, who has been under performing for my last place fantasy team. With the help of Crosby and Malkin, he better rack up those points on the power play.
