Eminger to Florida for Welch

Tampa Bay has traded defenseman Steve Eminger to Florida for Noah Welch.
Tampa Bay gets: a defenseman with potential, but never really had the chance (like they had in Eminger).
Florida gets: a defenseman who has had a strong campaign, while giving up a rearguard whom they weren't using.
Fantasy players impacted: Eminger's value goes way down. He is buried in Florida's system, whereas he was a top pairing d-man in Tampa.
Welch, on the other hand, will finally see some NHL ice time. He may be worth a flyer in deeper roto-leagues and I would think that 10 points is possible from him going forward.
