Seals acquire:
Roberto Luongo, Sean Couturier, Eric Johnson, Jannik Hansen and Radim Vrbata
Senators acquire:
Mikko Koivu, Ryan Getzlaf, Ryan Wilson, Jussi Jokinen, Michael Grabner and the Pens' 2012 3rd round pick
Analysis - Blockbuster Deal!!! Once again, the Oakland Seals have gone all in, giving up two 2010 Olympians in Koivu and Getzlaf, along with some solid young pieces in Wilson and Grabner, to secure the #1 NHL team's starting goalie...for now. While the Sens secured some excellent starting pieces for next year, they also gave up some young talent in Couturier, Johnson and Hansen. The key to this deal may be how long the Coyotes' run is in the playoffs, given that Vrbata is an impending UFA.
