William Hartmann @boom was traded form the Edmonton Blizzard to the Toronto Northstars just before the deadline. The Northstars window is certainly open, and the abilities of a rental Hartmann bodes well for a team with a very uphill postseason battle. The trade was leaked before the day's game, so Hartmann was allowed to play in the game and the GM (himself) didn't pull himself out of the game for health or injury reasons.

The media team snuck Julio into the back of the press room in a trenchcoat (the best sneaking attire) and told him to ask his questions when things cooled down.

Julio didn't know that Hartmann was being traded, so overhearing the real journalists ask their questions about the move made Julio very upset. He thrives on being improvisational, but his questions were only ones like:

Why are you leaving?

Do you not like it here with us? In Edmonton? Are you mad at us?

Is it something that I did?

Is Tony Pepperoni coming back?

Why do people always leave me?

If you're moving to Toronto, can I borrow your snow tires for the rest of the season? if you remember, i lent them to you as a rookie, and you kind o never paid me back, but i if i could use them for the rest of the season, that would be cool, i'd call it even.
