Damien Cox Giveth the Kubina ~ Armstrong Trade, Then Taketh Away

Toronto Star sports writer Damien Cox writes a blog he calls The Spin on Sports and I subscribe to the RSS feed. Earlier this afternoon, here's the update I got in my Google Reader.

I also follow Damien Cox on Twitter, where he's @DamoSpin. Here's his tweet shortly thereafter.

The deal Damien Cox was reporting was Pavel Kubina going to the Atlanta Thrashers in exchange for Colby Armstrong. It's a deal I dig, but if you go to Cox's Spin blog now, there's no sign of that entry. It's been deleted.

The deal could still happen, but it hasn't happened yet. It's been one big Cox tease and quite premature.
