You gotta love this Rudy! Your beloved Lubo has been traded to the Ducks!!! What a wondrous day!
And all for Ryan Whitney. Great trade for the Ducks since Lubo will actually shot the puck.

<p>One of the more revealing quotes comes from former Ducks and current Toronto goaltending consultant Francois Allaire regarding Vesa Toskala, who came to the Ducks with Jason Blake for Giguere.</p>
<p>"Vesa is not a guy who likes to build relations with coaches," Allaire told the Star.</p>
<p>"He preferred to be by himself. To do that, to say, `I’m okay by myself, I know what to do,’ you have to be really good in this league in 2010.</p>

<div class="description"><p>Jonathan Willis at Hockey or Die! <a href="http://my.thescore.com/hockeyordie/archive/2009/12/31/the-toughest-division-in-hockey.aspx">runs some numbers and concludes</a> that the Pacific Division is (still?) the toughest division in the NHL.</p>
<p><i>"What does it mean? Well, some might quibble the Ducks’ inclusion in that list, but consider this: outside of their division they are a very respectable 12-8-4. Meanwhile a team like the Capitals, vying for the Eastern Conference crown, are a comparable 16-8-6 outside their own division."</i></p>
