Trades

7:17 PM ET: In a surprising trade, the Los Angeles Kings have sent Mike Cammalleri to the Calgary Flames in a three-way deal. The Kings received the Flames’ first-rounder this year (17th overall) and gave it to the Anaheim Ducks, along with the 28th overall pick this year in exchange for the 12th overall selection. - JC

7:19 PM ET: The Florida Panthers have traded team captain Olli Jokinen to the Phoenix Coyotes in exchange for a pair of defensemen - Keith Ballard and Nick Boynton, as well as the 49th overall pick in this year’s draft. (2nd round) - JC

7:43 PM ET: The Montreal Canadiens have acquired Alex Tanguay and a 5th round pick in 2009 from the Calgary Flames in exchange for the 25th overall pick in this year’s draft (first rounder) and a second-round pick in ‘09. - JC

7:56 PM ET: The Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Islanders have swapped first-round picks. Toronto gets to pick 5th overall; the Isles 7th. However the Isles also get one of two combinations pending on the drafts of both teams - The Isles will receive either the 60th overall pick in this year’s draft and a 3rd rounder from this year also or the 68th overall pick and a 3rd rounder in next year’s draft. Confusing, I know. - JC
