Peter Schaefer heading out of town!

I've just received an e-mail from Eklund stating that a deal has been made trading Peter Schaefer to Boston for Shean Donovan.

Donovan is 32 and has 100 goals in 774 career games along with a -81 plus/minus rating.

Schaefer is 30 years old and has 89 goals in 493 games, including 53 in four seasons with the Senators (47 in the last three years.)

Is this going to be a great trade for the Sens? Time will tell - as always - but it seems that this is a money trade, saving Ottawa a little under $1.2 million in cap space.

A prelude of things to come? Here's hoping!
