The Calgary Flames have acquired defenseman Ladislav Smid and goaltender Olivier Roy from the Edmonton Oilers in exchange for forward Roman Horak and goaltender Laurent Brossoit.

Smid was originally drafted in the first round of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft, ninth overall, by the Anaheim Ducks. He was acquired by Edmonton on July 3, 2006, with Joffrey Lupul and draft picks in exchange for defenceman Chris Pronger. Smid has played 474 games in the NHL recording 65 points and 391 penalty minutes. The 6’3”, 209 lbs rearguard has become known has one of the league’s top shot blockers and typically plays against the opponents top offensive players.

Martin Brodeur wants to lead the Devils back to the postseason. But, if his Devils are not a playoff contender, he'd at least consider the possibility of accepting a trade. 

The goaltender told the Newark Star-Ledger on Tuesday that he'd consider waiving his no-trade clause if the Devils were interested in making a deal.

"I hope it will never happen, but if there is a situation that could be really fun for me and really good for the Devils, why not? It's not like I'm going to play 25 more years here," Brodeur told the Star-Ledger.
