STUART TO DETROIT

The Detroit Red Wings acquired defenseman Brad Stuart from the Los Angeles Kings for a second-round draft pick in 2008 and a fourth-round draft pick in 2009.

What does it give the Detroit Red Wings
For Detroit the key is depth and healthy talent. Stuart is a high-caliber talent who just hasn't quite found consistency in the NHL yet. As the third overall pick of the 1998 draft, he certainly has the goods to be a regular for the Wings.

What does it give the Los Angeles Kings
More high-quality prospects, eventually. The Kings have done a superb job of building with youth in recent years, and the draft picks will yield players who will probably eventually become solid contributors for them.
