This Day In Hockey History (9/19)

Here was a big trade in the NHL from 20 years ago.  That is right, I said 20 years ago.  It is almost fun to see these trades because when veterans are moved like this, it is usually for high end prospect talent.  This case was sort of part and parcel here but now the time is here to see just what this transaction involved today on “This Day”.

So is this what a Viking funeral feels like?  For Edmonton fans, it really was.  This moment happened 19 years ago today.  The burning flame did not come up with this one.
