Maple Leafs Acquire Versteeg from Blackhawks

The Toronto Maple Leafs announced Wednesday night that they have acquired right wing Kris Versteeg and the rights to left wing Bill Sweatt from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for left wing Viktor Stalberg, center Chris DiDomenico, and center Philippe Paradis. I'll have analysis on this trade tomorrow, as I have to get up very early, but needless to say, the Maple Leafs got a good scoring winger in Versteeg and a decent prospect in Sweatt. The Blackhawks loaded up on prospects in this move, as Stalberg, DiDomenico, and Paradis all have lots of promise and could help keep the Blackhawks competitive foryears down the road.
