Not as well as you. I had the first 4, you had the same but got Ruff right.
Must be on the old thread.
Florida and Vancouver swapped some players...
Florida gets Todd "Bert is Evil" Bertuzzi, goalie Alex Auld, and d-man Bryan Allen.
Vancouver gets Roberto "I've never won anything for you guys but you should give me lots of money" Luongo, d-man Lukas Krajicek, and a 6th round pick.

Some interesting notes:
The Calgary Flames made a move to bolster their offence on Saturday, acquiring winger Alex Tanguay from the Colorado Avalanche in exchange for defenceman Jordan Leopold and a second-round pick in Saturday's NHL draft.
The Toronto Maple Leafs made a move to bolster their netminding core as they traded for Boston's Andrew Raycroft. In return for the 2004 Calder Trophy winner as the NHL's rookie of the year, the Leafs sent the rights to prospect Tuukka Rask.
In other draft-day trades, the Minnesota Wild acquired forward Pavol Demitra from the Los Angeles Kings for forward Patrick O'Sullivan and No. 17 pick (forward Chris Stewart).
The Atlanta Thrashers shipped centre Patrik Stefan and defenceman Jaroslav Modry to the Dallas Stars for centre Niko Kapanen and a seventh-round pick.
The St. Louis Blues did the expected and drafted defenceman Erik Johnson first overall Saturday in Vancouver.
While there was speculation the Pittsburgh Penguins would trade the second pick, they selected Jordan Staal from the Peterborough Petes. Staal now joins a Penguins roster that already boasts an impressive array of young players, including the incredibly gifted Sidney Crosby and incoming star Evgeni Malkin.
With the third pick in the draft, the Chicago Blackhawks took centre Jonathan Toews from the University of North Dakota.
The Washington Capitals then selected Swedish centre Nicklas Backstrom and the Boston Bruins rounded out the top five by taking American centre Phil Kessel.
