This is the Jeff Merrick Show on the Sports Net Radio Network.

All right, welcome back to the program.

The hour of Bill Armstrong, the general manager of the Arizona Coyotes, who today

announce they have acquired Jacob Vorachek, who will not play, and a six-rounder for Columbus in exchange for net miner John Gillies.

7.8 million cash remaining on the deal and there is insurance coverage for his injury.

Okay, in the meantime, speaking of the Arizona coyotes yesterday, they dealt Jacob

Chikrin to the Ottawa Senators and a very tidy deal specifically for a Pierre Dorian general manager of the Ottawa Senators.

We know some of the key players have asked for help, and if you look at the last two games,

again sort of Tread Red Wings. They have certainly earned it.

Presto boom last minute Jacob Chickren is going to play for the Ottawa

senator so it's it's fantastic the city is buzzing here in Ottawa Jeff
