So they bring in Hossa to replace the injury prone Havlat, only to learn Hossa has a long term injury already so they send him to Minnesota just like Havlat...

Yeah but they either pull the trigger on those trades or they only sign one of toews, kane, and keith, maybe two, definitely not 3.
Also given the surgery would only put him out till december it's not going to be a very long term solution to cap problems.
