This years expected #1 draft pick in the NHL was traded today from the Generals to the Knights. Looks like the Knights are the odd on favorites to win the Memorial Cup.

Tavares traded to London

John Tavares won World Junior gold in Ottawa last week. He hopes to add a Memorial Cup to trophy case in June.

To bolster that quest, Tavares was traded Thursday from the Oshawa Generals to the London Knights on the eve of the Ontario Hockey League trade deadline, which falls at noon Friday.

The Knights, perennially among the top teams in the OHL as well as the Canadian Hockey League, are in a pitched battle with the Windsor Spitfires for the top spot for the best record in the OHL, as well as the top seed in the Western Conference playoff race. Entering the weekend, Windsor held a five-point lead for the top spot.

Along with Tavares, the Knights receive defenseman Michael Del Zotto, the New York Rangers' 2008 first-round pick who has 33 points in 34 games with the Generals this season.
