Buffalo picks up Raffi Torres from Columbus
The Columbus Blue Jackets traded winger Raffi Torres to the Buffalo Sabres for Nathan Paetsch and a 2010 second-round draft pick on Wednesday.
Torres has recorded 19 goals and 31 points in 60 games for Columbus this season. A smooth-skating, gritty left winger who can log minutes on the power play, three of his 19 goals are game-winners.
