{allcanada} CONCERNS ABOUT FRASER'S HEALTH COULD VOID SMYTH DEAL

There could be yet another twist in the trade that sent Ryan Smyth from the Los Angeles Kings back to the Edmonton Oilers. a

The trade was initially held up because Gilbert Brule, who the Oilers were originally sending to the Kings in the deal, was injured and therefore unable to be bought out upon completion of the trade.

Forward Colin Fraser was included instead, but sources tell TSN that there are now concerns being raised about his health and the ability of a buyout to be executed on his contract.

The Kings could petition the league to void the deal, but if that move was successful, they would have Smyth's contract back on their books, limiting any moves they can make in free agency.
