Hemsky On The Trade Block
The NHL trade deadline is February 27th. It is two and a half weeks away. One of the big name players who is likely to be moved is Ales Hemsky of the Edmonton Oilers.

Why trading Ales Hemsky is a bad idea
If you live in Edmonton, it’s hard not to turn on the radio, check twitter or read most blogs without seeing someone demand that Ales Hemsky be traded and a list of trades, that person has come up with inside their head.

Ales Hemsky traded? Not yet, but soon.
Goodbye Ales Hemsky. Ok, that statement is a few weeks premature, but Oilers fans should start getting used to the idea of Hemsky playing for a different club. As the NHL trading deadline of February 27 approaches, it is a strong likelihood, given his woeful play this season, that the Oilers will part ways with streaky forward. Hemsky has managed only a meagre 11 points this season...
