ARTYUKHIN TO ANAHEIM
The Anaheim Ducks acquired winger Evgeny Artyukhin from the Tampa Bay Lightning for winger Drew Miller and a third-round draft pick in 2010.
What does it give the Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks love the hitting game, so Artyukhin should fit right in. He'll likely play a bottom-six winger role and become a nuissance around the Western Conference.
What does it give the Tampa Bay Lightning
The Bolts will probably use Miller in a checking capacity, so the key to this trade could very well become the third rounder in next June's draft. Artyukhin never developed as a scorer.
