The 6-4, 254-pound winger also averaged 10:40 time on ice (TOI) per game and 14.8 shifts per game. Originally selected by Tampa Bay in the third round (94th overall) of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft, Artyukhin has played two seasons with the Lightning (2005-06 and 2008-09).

In January 2003, he helped Team Russia capture gold at the 2003 World Junior Championships in Halifax and Sydney, Nova Scotia, recording 1-0=1 point and 10 PIM in six games. Miller, 25 (2/17/84), appeared in 27 games with Anaheim last season, scoring 4-6=10 points with 27 PIM. He played in all 13 Stanley Cup Playoff games with the Ducks, earning 2-1=3 points with two PIM.

The Lightning have acquired LW Drew Miller and a 3rd rd pick in 2010 from Anaheim in exchange for Evgeny Artyukhin.

Haha that's exactly what I was thinking.
Also, the Tampa Bay Lightning have announced on their Twitter page that the deal is Artyukhin to Anaheim for Drew Miller and a 3rd round pick.

F*ck him. Good riddance. And who is Drew Miller? Oh wait, f*ck him too.
This better keep Zenon in the lineup. There's no excuse not to. The guy will actually fight and enforce...and Fedoruk will be doing the checking. The Arty era is overwith. Talk about a cluster****. |

Oh my gay!
Even with Artyukhin's negatives, I really didn't want to see him get dealt unless it involved a returning tough guy. This sucks, but Arty will probably thrive in the Ducks organization.

Yay! We might as well give up Vinny too! As long as it gives Zenon Konopka shot
For reals though, Tocchet probably hated him, but I was looking forward to see if he could improve. No matter where his career goes for him, he'll light up the building and will be an exciting plaer to watch. fml. |

Think about it though. Fedoruk will be making over a million, so was Arty. Who could be more effective....someone who'll actually back up their **** on accasions (or protect teammates), or someone who won't score, take STUPID penalties, will throw huge checks, yet won't have anyone to protect him once the middleweight/heavyweight comes calling? Arty probably wouldn't of done sh*t this year anyway.
Bye bye. Go back to Europe. |
