Flames, Coyotes trade Ritchie brothers
According to NHL stats, it is the first trade ever involving two brothers.
"I think they kind of got leaked out so they were laughing by the time I called them," Flames general manager Brad Treliving said. "It's unique. If for nothing else, we're unique. It just worked out that way. I think it's going to give Brett an opportunity there. We get Nick, give him an opportunity. First time for everything. It's a little unique, and I had a chuckle with both of them while we were talking."
At least their Mom will not have to get new sweaters....
