Big Buff is Coming to Atlanta
Welcome to Atlanta, Byfuglien!!!!!!! Oh yeah, and the others as well. I'm thrilled to have all of the new Thrashers, but if you follow this blog, you know I am a HUGE Buff fan...and he's mine(ours) now!!! Did you hear that? That sound is Roberto Luongo saying prayers of thanks.
In this trade Atlanta gets Dustin Byfuglien, Ben Eager, Brent Soppel and prospect Akem Ailu.
Now for the sad part :(
We traded Marty Reasoner. I love Marty Reasoner. He's awesome. I was thinking he might make a nice captain. Farewell Marty, you will always have fans here.
Also lost in this trade is Jeremy Morin. While I feel sad to see Marty go because I like him, I'm sad to see Morin go because I think he's got a good future. He had a great season and helped lead Team USA to a gold medal in the World Juniors.

I am so excited to see Big Buff coming to Atlanta, not so happy about the loss of Reasoner, but overall, Thanks Kovy, we are really racking up, and it all started with him! YES!
I think it's going to be such an exciting season. Thanks for spotlighting this.
Good point, Michelle. I forgot to mention (in my Buff hysteria) that another part of the deal is giving Chicago our first round pic we got from the Devils in the Kovy trade. (24th pick overall)
