Puck Daddy’s 2013 NHL Trade Deadline Live Blog, Hour 1

8:00 a.m. EST -- OK, so Jaromir Jagr was traded. And Jarome Iginla and Jay Bouwmeester. And Brenden Morrow and Douglas Murray Ryane Clowe and Michal Handzus and Jordan Leipold and Derek Roy and Robyn Regehr. It doesn’t mean the NHL trade deadline is going to move at a turtle’s pace or be a tedious marathon of inactivity. There could be, like, an Ian White trade.

Sigh …

Here's how things will work today on Puck Daddy: As per usual, we will have live blog posts going up every hour, on the hour. Trades, news, analysis, observations or general pithiness will be published on top of the most recent information in the post, so it'll end up reading in reverse chronological order. In other words: Hit refresh and check the top of the post. A lot.

Once again, we'll have our Chatterbox up and running with the Twitter feeds of beat writers and news breakers around the NHL.

On Sportsnet and on Puck Daddy, it's the return of a deadline favorite: The Milbury Scale, in which we rate a trade's fairness and effectiveness with floating noggins featuring perhaps the most inept general manager in the history of the NHL.

For those of you who are new, here's how it works:

One Milbury: A fair trade that helps both teams, both in the short term and in the long run. No winner, no loser: Just a solid deal founded on smart financial and hockey needs. Think Brad Boyes for Dennis Wideman.

Two Milburys: A trade that could, down the road, burn one team in a big way. We're talking a trade of blue-chip prospects for a rental, if the team that's renting clearly isn't going to win it all this season. Joe Morrow for Brenden Morrow? Two Mulburys.

Three Milburys means a clear winner in a deal at the time of the trade. Someone got a little too desperate, or someone just got hosed. The Jarome Iginla trade? That's a 3-Milbury special.

Four Milburys! Bertuzzi, McCabe and eventually Jarkko Ruutu for Trevor Linden! Roberto Luongo and Olli Jokinen for Mark Parrish and Oleg Kvasha! YASHIN! DISASTER!

So there's that. What are your predictions for deadline day?
