Marc-Andre Bergeron traded to the New York Islanders for Russian prospect Denis Grebeshov

Does this mean Lowe is selling at the deadline instead of buying?
Or is he freeing up money to sign Smyth to a $5 mil-a-yr plus long term contract?
Maybe a bit of both .....................
The trade deadline is now a mere 9 days away.
Lowe might be working on something bigger, or maybe not. You never know.

Sad to see Bergeron go, as mistake prone as he was, he will be missed by quite a few Oilers fans.
I myself tended to rag on him more this season than in seasons past, but it's fair to say I also cheered him on just as much, and praying he would learn from his mistakes.
Thanks for the all the great hip-check memories, thanks for all the goals and effort you gave to the Oilers.
Good luck with the Islanders Marc-Andre "troll" Bergeron. :(
