No not the Danny Syvret trade.
Today we say good bye to Danny Kristo, who was traded for some reason to the Rangers for Christian Thomas. Essentially we traded the Count for what looks like another Corey Locke... But in winger form.
Can't say I'm thrilled. In fact, I'm rather annoyed. They could have at least tried to get Boo Nieves!
Also, what the fuck. You just killed my Danny Kristo/Louis Leblanc reunion tour.
Why did they do this trade? I have no idea. Kristo is only 2 inches taller than Thomas. Thomas is more of a scorer but I really don't know why the swap was necessary. And Bergevin threw around the fact that Thomas has "tremendous character" again.
Next time we acquire players, please don't use that tag again. I'm getting sick of "character"...
