Dead Line Passes: Outcome – Fantastic!

DERS fans REJOICE! The surgical operation to remove the malignant cancer, that is chris simon, was a complete success. I am simply flabbergasted at the fact that not only a team was interested in acquiring this disgrace, but that they were willing to give something up for him in return. I was prepared to offer him and a few million dollars to any team willing to take this {expletive deleted}, but I digress.

It was not a great day of movement for the DERS but it was good. Simply the departure of simon made this transfer season a successful one, however there were more managerial maneuvers made by the DERS in an attempt to facilitate in the rebuilding of the great dynasty.

Looking at the moves that were made, I feel that we are at least attempting to make strides in the right direction. With the acquisition of Rob Davison and departure of simon and M.A.B. we have really bolstered up our defensive ability. We lost a defensive liability and gained something the team desperately needed: a defensive defenseman, who is not injured.

Also the addition of the third and sixth round pick in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft is a nice bonus that can really only help the DERS. Many people may say “Its a third and sixth round pick, who cares?” All I have to say to that; Henrik Zetterberg – seventh round.

Although no big deals were made, like trading Satan or even TANK, I am still happy that we purged ourselves of that abomination. With that trade alone I no longer care about the fact that we will lose to Ottawa in the first round of the playoffs this year.

GO DERS!
