Todd Fedoruk Claimed Off Waivers by Wild

From the Dallas Stars,

The Dallas Stars announced today that left wing Todd Fedoruk has been claimed off re-entry waivers by the Minnesota Wild. The Stars and Wild will split Fedoruk’s salary (signed one-year deal for $875,000 in off-season) for the remainder of the 2007-08 season.

added 5:10pm, Tom Lynn, Asst. GM for the Wild on the Fedoruk pick-up via Russo’s Rants,

“The general manager is not happy where we are right now, so he’s made this move (Fedoruk). Some guys will have to step up or there will be other moves.”

He added, “In order to compete against some of the teams in our conference that we need to get ahead of, we need a grittier, more committed physical team. Fedoruk, we didn’t get just to come and fight. He makes us a tougher team.”

Probably the single best thing ever to happen to poor Todd.

If only because it means boogaard won’t destroy him again.

Lamaire will make good use of Fedoruk.
Pick-ups on re-entry are a great bargain, and Todd is just reaching his prime at 28.  He could really surprise us with the right motivation and coaching.

But they already have the immortal Sean Hill to provide toughness!  Didn’t you know he can walk on water?
