2:55 p.m.: Pittsburgh has acquired Hal Gill from Toronto for a second-round pick and a fifth-rounder. Trades coming in fast now, so I'll come back for analysis as soon as time permits.
4:33 p.m. Analysis: Gill, 32, is a rangy, physical defenseman who Toronto typically used against opposing teams' top players. He has 20 points in 63 games this year, but don't count him to provide the Pens with much offense.
This is a good supplemental move for a team that is going for broke in this year's playoffs. Toronto's not going anywhere, so they were smart to pick up a couple of picks for a guy they would have lost in free agency anyway.
If you're keeping track at home, Pittsburgh today gave up its first, second and fourth round picks in this year's draft. Guess they're done rebuilding.
