nix after being dealt at the trade deadline last season to the New York Rangers for Dmitri Kalinin, Petr Prucha and Nigel Dawes. The Coyotes get him back for just a fourth-round pick in 2011.

hink this was a pretty even deal.
New York Rangers trade Dmitri Kalinin, Nigel Dawes and Petr Prucha to Phoenix for Derek Morris.
-New York made another splash on deadline day with this big deal for defenseman Derek Morris. Russian defenseman Kalinin has been on the hot seat for the Rangers this season for the most part, scoring just one goal in 58 games. He is heralded as a highly-offensive defenseman, but things have not worked in his favor this season. Dawes and Prucha have also been on the hot seat this season (almost like the entire Rangers roster), but are still considered very valuable players to be dealt. Morris on the other hand has played well enough this season, being one of the top defensemen for the Coyotes. Despite his -13 rating, he has played against top lines and looks strong under pressure.
