Holy chit, seriously holy chit, lol

To start I highlighted in bold what I felt to be the high points of the deal for both sides.
I wanted to keep Crosby till basically he retired or whatever however, I need to have a 2nd goalie past this year, I need youth and security for years to come to make runs at the title not just in 2013.  As Tyler once mentioned you have to build for more than just one year, thats why its called a Dynasty League.   For starters having Shultz this year and next year at 0.2m is awesome...I get a the goalie duo, and a fantasy point god in Cally and I get over 2m in cap space to help with next years cap drop or free agents if I make it as far as I plan on this year...This is a crazy deal that literally took almost a month, LOL

Way to go Jared for riding this deal out for so long, wasn't easy but we got it done.

What happens with your other swap of 1st rounders?

Being a pens fan Crosby is like my trophy wife.  Did I need her, no but she is one sexy ride.   

In the end , i probably gave up too much especially a goaltending duo for the blues, but I was super heavy on the RW with Brown, Perry and Callahan plus a few up and comers. 

John moore takes the sting out of losing schultz. 
Thomas still gives me a starter for this year.  Hopefully one of my youngins will step up for next year.

that can be erased since I am now in possession of both picks.
