Hawerchuk Trade: Winnipeg Lost Star, Buffalo Gained Hero

Published 2 days, 1 hour ago
Description

Dale Hawerchuk, the star center for the Winnipeg Jets, was traded to the Buffalo Sabres in 1990, marking the end of his decade-long tenure with the Jets. The trade, which included Phil Housley, Scott Arniel, Jeff Parker, and a draft pick, was sparked by tensions between Hawerchuk and new coach Bob Murdoch. Hawerchuk continued to produce in Buffalo, while Housley delivered defensive punch for the Jets. The trade is now seen as even, with both teams acquiring hall of famers, but Buffalo gained the emotional centerpiece, while Winnipeg mourned the end of an era.
