removed from the later rounds of the draft)
A couple of trades were made prior to the dispersal draft. The
Philadelphia Wings traded Geoff Snider to the Calgary Roughnecks in
exchange for the 8th overall selection in the draft. The Wings used
that selection to draft Ryan Boyle. Snider, an All-Star transition
player and faceoff specialist, won a league-best 295 faceoffs last
season.
On Thursday, the Boston Blazers traded Brenden Thenhaus and their
first round selection in the 2011 Entry Draft to the Buffalo
Bandits in exchange for the sixth overall selection in Friday's
draft. Boston used the selection to draft John Orsen.
