Newsbreakers
July 5, 2008
Craig Rivet was traded to the Sabres, not because the Sharks were unhappy with his performance, but because of salary considerations, according to the San Jose Mercury.

Our View:The Sharks added Dan Boyle and Rob Blake which not only made Rivet somewhat redundant in terms of blueliners, but also too expensive at $3.5 million. Rivet should continue to be a nice depth defensemen in Buffalo after a solid '07-'08.

Defenseman Craig Rivet, and a seventh-round pick in 2010, have been dealt from the Sharks to the Sabres in exchange for second-round selections in the 2009 and 2010 drafts, according to TSN. Sabres' GM Darcy Regier said, "We are very excited to add such a quality veteran player to our roster. He is a great character player that will provide our club added leadership and experience."

Our View:Rivet became expendable to the Sharks following their acquisitions of Rob Blake and Dan Boyle. He should prove to be an asset to the Sabres, as he contributed five goals and 30 assists over 74 games for San Jose in 2007-08, with 104 penalty minutes.

Craig Rivet was in the Sharks lineup in Game 4, despite appearing to be injured after a Brenden Morrow hit on Tuesday.

Our View:The defenseman is expected to be available for Friday night's game 5.
