from Marty Henwood at Hockey.com,
All it took were a few dreaded words from a concussion specialist Tuesday for the Philadelphia Flyers to subtly slip into full-blown desperation mode.
Moments after completing a trade that sent Jim Vandermeer west to Calgary, the Flyers learned they will be without forward Simon Gagne for the remainder of the season.
Not exactly welcome news for a team that hasn’t won in eight games.
Update 4:02pm ET: (alanah) Marty contacted us acknowledging the error in his original article, and made the correction which we’ve also reflected above.
(*Hey, we all have “blonde moments” where we accidentally invert some vital information—I’m just happy it wasn’t me for once!)

I thought he had that trade going in the wrong direction!

Oh Marty, you’d hold more weight if you understood that the Flyers traded away Vandermeer to Calgary (http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/20080221_Flyers_Gagne_done_for_the_season.html look at the bottom) and not traded for him, although, if Calgary gave up more than a bag of pucks for him they overpaid.
