Campbell Sent to Left Coast

The Great Escape from Buffalo continues ...

Fitting that Brian Campbell gets shipped off to San Jose - Montreal was in this deal to the end _ today. Campbell is a real comer on defense, a guy the Flyers would love to have.

I don't think Campbell will sign a long-term or short team deal with the Sharks. I think he will wait until the summer and look at his free agetn options. If that happens, the Flyers are a likely destinition given the Buffalo connection of Danny Briere and Marty Biron.

Great move for San Jose which remains a legit Stanley Cup contender.

Steve Bernier and a first-round pick went to the Sabres.

**

I don't expect any major moves today from the Flyers because Campbell and Dan Boyle are now done and Peter Forsberg went to Colorado. I see a smaller deal coming today for another forward.
