The Devils made an early splash today during what is a sort of Christmas like atmosphere for hockey fans; the NHL trade deadline.  I mean, this is the day I would cut college classes and take off for work for.  Just so I can constantly refresh my link to TSN and a few blogging websites.  Yes, I was, and still am a loser. 

But alas, the Devils traded Cam Jansen to the St. Louis Blues for defenseman Bryce Salvador.  Salvador is a defensive defenseman who has blocked 90+ shots this season and is a +12 on the year.  Considering the Devils are the best team in the East, this is a solid move, adding some depth to their blueline.  Expect Salvador to be paired with Colin White when he gets into the lineup.
