Ex-King (Ex-Wing) Kyle Quincey back in Detroit
Yzerman trades for Kyle Quincey then flips him to Detroit. Tampa gets an extra first round pick in 2012. Detroit gets a great defenseman I wish the Kings still had. That pick is a lot to give up for a rental, since Quincey is a pending UFA; but of course, Quincey will re-sign in Detroit. Who wouldn't?
Source -- Detroit Red Wings land Kyle Quincey in three-team trade - ESPN
The Detroit Red Wings have landed Colorado Avalanche defenseman Kyle Quincey in a three-team deal with the Tampa Bay Lightning, a source confirmed to ESPN.com's Pierre LeBrun. In exchange for Quincey, the Avs received Lightning right wing Steve Downie and Detroit sent minor-leaguer Sebastien Piche and its first-round pick in 2012 to Tampa Bay, the source said. Quincey, who has 18 assists and 23 points through 52 games this year, is on pace for his second-best season since entering the NHL on a full-time basis in 2008 with Los Angeles. Detroit originally drafted Quincey 132nd overall in 2003.

Quincey was a great catch
It’s too bad the Kings had to give him up to get Smyth. He would still be the Kings’ best defenseman.
The best team in the league just got that much stronger.

No love for Brandon Segal?
Yz will turn him into a 20 goal power forward next season.
