Update: The Iginla to Bruins is almost confirmed, awaiting formal confirmation. Look on the other sites to find more info, I will probably post my opinion tomorrow.
The Dallas Stars have traded forward Brendan Morrow and a 3rd round pick in the 2013 NHL Entry Draft to the Pittsburgh Penguins in exchange for defenseman Joe Morrow and a 5th round pick. Brochu's take: It may be a lot for an aging Morrow, but the Pens leveraged a deep prospect pool to get a player that will help in the playoffs.
The Penguins also acquired defenseman Douglas Murray from the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a 2nd round pick in the 2013 Entry Draft and a conditional 2nd in the 2014 Draft.
The Carolina Hurricanes have re-signed forward Alexander Semin to a 5-year, $35 million contract extension. Brochu's take: Semin has the skills of $7 million player, but the head of an AHLer. And the NHL wonders why there are teams with cap trouble.
The Ottawa Senators have signed free agent forward Buddy Robinson to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Carolina Hurricanes have placed forwards Tim Wallace and Jussi Jokinen on waivers.
The Boston Bruins have claimed forward Kaspars Daugavins off waivers from the Ottawa Senators. Brochu's take: Now he can do his shootout move to someone other than Tuukka Rask.
