Paille Traded To Boston

The Buffalo Sabres traded left wing Daniel Paille, to the Boston Bruins for a 3rd round pick and a conditional 4th round selection in next year's draft, according to ESPNBoston.com.

Not much to say about the winger, except that he has a cool name to hear Rick Jeaneret call when he scored a power play goal, which in itself was a rare feat. Maybe he'll find a niche playing in Milan Lucic's spot while Lucic recovers from finger surgery.

A little did you know here: Paille was the first round selection for the Sabres in 2002, a pick that origininated in New Jersey, but they traded the pick to Dallas as part of the Randy MacKay/Jason Arnott for Jamie Langenbrunner/Joe Neiuwendyk deal in 2002, Dallas then traded the pick to Colombus who finally dealt it to Buffalo.
