GM and Head Coach Dave Fyvie announced a trade today between the Flames and the Dallas Stars. Coming to Calgary is Cranbrook BC native Brad Lukowich (pictured) for Flames' prospect Doug Lynch and two 5th round draft choices (2005, 2006). Lukowich is a 28 yr old stay-at-home defenseman who previously won a Stanley Cup in 1999 with the Dallas Stars.

"Brad is a Western Canadian kid who plays the right way. When we lost Michalek it really exposed a lack of depth we have at the blueline. We hope this trade addresses that." Said Coach Fyvie.

It seems doubtful that Lukowich will be given the type of minutes who has become used to in Dallas, and will most likely play on the third pair with Tom Preissing. Lukowich will sure to become more of a fixture on the team's penalty kill.

Going the other way is Doug Lunch, a two-way defenseman who has spent the previous 3 years toiling in the American League.

It is not known if Lukowich will be dressed for the Flames game against the Blues tomorrow night in St.Louis.
