My guess is something got messed up in the files, and Drew made the trade to correct it. Bouwmeester was drafted by the Sabres and has never been traded away (no matter how many times he is asked).

That's correct - Harrison was involved in a trade from Buffalo to Toronto, and Drew inadvertently entered the wrong "Jay" defenceman... this move just corrected that error.
