For Sydor? Not sure how reliable this site it. Boucher was off to a slow start. If Boucher can get back to his old form, this will be a huge steal by Shero. Can't wait to see him in a Pens uniform. Both make $2.5 million a season.

That site sucks. They reported Modano signed with us back in the offseason after the lockout. And it never came true.

But, this time it is correct. TSN reports...

I'm really happy about this trade. Even though Boucher hasn't been the same player since his injuries last season, I'm hoping he will regain it now that he is on one of the best teams in the league. Can't wait to see him play on Tuesday.
