Talk:Canes trade for Recchi/@comment-101808-20060310105743

Carolina really needed another big forward after Cole went down. They have been one of the best if not the best teams in the new NHL, and they probably gave up a bit too much for a player on the downside of his career, but Recchi will fit in nicely and should put some points on the board. Pittsburgh, who signed all of those free agents after winning the draft for Crosby, has been a huge disappointement. They need about 6 Crosbys to start showing signs of life. At least they have the Steelers to cheer about.
