Contrary to prior reports Patrice Cormier has been traded to the Atlanta Thrashers, not Mattias Tedenby.
Patrice Cormier, Not Tedenby, Traded To Atlanta
TSN’s Bob McKenzie has confirmed the return, with Cormier included in the package.
What’s interesting about the trade is that Lou Lamoriello recently stood up for the Devils prospect after he was suspended for elbowing an opponent in a Canadian Juniors hockey game. The Devils G.M. stated that that the franchise stood behind Cormier, who was captain of Team Canada in the World Junior Championships.
Now, Cormier is an Atlanta Thrasher.
