Sabres, Caps, Coyotes make smart moves

Although it's difficult to disagree with media wags dubbing yesterday's NHL trade deadline -- dudline -- I think a couple of clubs did very well.
Sabres adding Raffi Torres was a smart move while Capitals got some grit in Scott Walker that will help in the room and down the stretch to the playoffs. Coyotes grabbing Wojtek Wolski was also a good move for a club that could be playing elsewhere in the future.
Leafs?
Unloaded some contracts, that's about it, although I think Luca Caputi (remember him in the OHL?) could help sooner than later.
Looks like Burke is pretty much committed to blowing up the team and starting from scratch.
(When does the cycle end?)
Last Stanley Cup, 1967. Next one? Not in sight.
