To Flyers: Poni and Kaberle
To Leafs: Carter and 2010 1st Rd Pick
To Bruins: Kaberle, Kardi, Poni, and 2nd Rd Pick
To Leafs: Savard, Ryder and 1st Rd Pick (from the Leafs)
Unfortunately, the following are just "Proposed" Trades without "basis" from a die-hard Leaf Fan:
1) Send (D) Kaberle to LA Kings for prospect Brayden Schenn plus a 3'rd rounder. Schenn is a First rounder last year (#5 overall)
2) Kaberle (D) to Vancouver (Ya Right !!) for prospect Cody Hodgson plus a 4'th round pick (Hodgson was a high First Round pick) won't happen but it would be nice
3) Kaberle (D) to Pittsburgh for prospect Eric Tangradi LW 6'4" - 220 plus a 2'nd round pick
4) Ponikarovsky (LW) to NY Rangers for a 2'nd Round Pick plus prospect Evgeny Grechiev - 6'4" 215 (taken in 4'th round)
5) Ponikarovsky (LW) & Exelby (D) to Edmonton Oilers for Dustin Penner (RW) plus a 4'th round pick
6) Ponikarovsky (LW) & Grabovski (C) to Edmonton Oilers for Dustin Penner (RW) plus a 2'nd round pick

"Ponakarovski and Kaberle to Tampa for St.Louis and future considerations" DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE

February 07 2010
To Philadelphia
Sheldon Shouray, Sam Gagner
To Edmonton
Ray Emery, Claude Giroux, conditional 2010 draft pick
February 06 2010
Ponakarovski and Kaberle to Tampa for St.Louis and future considerations
February 05 2010
Heard a source close to the Leafs mention that Tomas Kabarle was close to becoming a New Jersey Devil. This makes sense as they just landed Kolvalchuk, and are obviously going for a cup run, however need to update their cast of no-name defense.
Who wrote Finger for Alfredsson? How stupid could you be?
Fire the bruins
To Tampa Bay:Ryder and Morris
To Boston:Downie,3rd rounder
To Pittsbrugh:O'Sullivan,Grebeshkov,Moreau and Horcoff
To Edmonton:Staal,Eaton and 5th rounder
February 04 2010
To Ottowa= ponakorofski, Finger
To Toronto= Alfredson, 3rd round pick in 2011
Kovalchuk rumor red hot now. Boston not only back in the race despite saying too high of a price but due to horrid lack of offensive punch the Bruins feel they simply have no choice now.
Tornonto 1st pick not involved but Bostons might be. Heard Lucic may be part of the deal as well. Tune in the deal is about to be finalized.
Boston also trying to move Ryder in a seperate deal to shed his $ 4 million salary.
Has boston got a good chance to land kolvolchuk i say wideman n ryder for him
Kotalic, meyers, moss for carter and 2nd rounder
sarich dawes lundmark for weber 3rd rounder
February 03 2010
Avalanche get Kovalchuk for svatos and a first round pick.
Kris letang posibility trading to columbus for rj umberger
*
toronto = kovalchuk
atlanta = komisarek, finger, stepniak
*
February 02 2010
Boston apparently not in panic mode yet but still looking for a top 6 forward and a top 4 d-man. They want a few games with a healthy line up before a final decision is made.
Forget about Kovalchuk as he is too expensive and would create too many holes in the line up in a trade.
Look for a smaller deal ( if any ) that would bring in maybe Whitney and Ward from Carolina also pending on how they do in the next couple of weeks.
Rumblings are that they may raise the white flag and choose to dump a few players and hit the free agent market July 1st.
The bruins would be crazy to trade their either of their first rounders for kovalchuk. U don't trade your future away for the short term. Look at the leafs as a prime example
Crosby for Ovechkin hahaha
New Jersey - Kovalchuck
Atlanta - Broduer, Langabrunner
Detroit - Gretzky and Kurri
Edmonton - Yzerman and Fedorov
Edmonton - Boyd, Lundmark
Calgary - The entire Edmonton Franchise
(BAD TRADE FOR calgary)
February 01 2010
Dion Phaneuf traded to Toronto?? Calgary better get someone really good. Sad yo see Dion go.
I got information from an Ottawa Senator indsider today that the Sens are very interested in a package deal with the Atlanta Thrashers that would send Colby Armstrong and Maxim Afinogenov or Slava Kozlov in exchange for Brian Lee and San Jose Sharks second round pick. When I asked when a deal like this could happen he said probably after the olympic break so GM Don Waddell can see where his team is in the playoff race.
Another deal I heard from the same insider said that the Sens could make a deal with Carolina Hurricanes very soon regarding Matt Cullen and/or Scott Walker or Aaron Ward in exchange for San Jose's second round draft pick as well as either Johnathon Cheechoo or Chris Campoli
Do the leafs have new golie
Toronto has had serious discusions with Pittsburgh to aquire young centre Jordon Stall. The deal may involve Alexi Ponkrovsky and a prospect.
January 31 2010
To rangers: stajan
to leafs: lisin, 3rd
OK guys, Ovechkin will not leave Wash and CRosby aint leaving Pitt. Who thought of that is not a fan.
Id like to see the Oilers though go after some strong scoring talent. Get rid of Horcoff, Moreau, Pisani and they could throw in one of the young top talent there.

January 26 2010
I over heard Bob Gainey talking with someone (not giving any names) about a possible deal involving Jeff Carter going to Montreal. The deal was, from what I heard, Tomas Plekanec, Paul Mara, Jaroslav Halak, and a 1st Round Draft Pick in 2010 for Jeff Carter and a prospect. The conversation was quite serious. He said if it was made it would be closer to the trade deadline.
January 24 2010
Phaneuf for Kovalchuk and 1st rounder
People ont the HFboards are mostly idoits thinking they know hockey.Picks and young players are good although there value is not higher than a NHLER WHO PLAYS REGULARLY AND DOES FAIRTLY WELL. About 15% of the players drafted make it to the nhl.Futhermore oner player wanting to win will always dissagree with teammates who show they dont fucken vare on the ice it is one thing to talk the talk walk the fucken walk.I ALWAYS HAVE A GOOD LAUGHAT HFBOARDS THEY MUST BE WANNABE CANADIANS!
It is been a very dissapointing season as an edmonton oiler fan and i think it is time they change some of there defence like grebeskov and Gilbert who turn over the puck all the time and souray who really wants to go.
Also some forwards need to go to becasue they have had a very dissapointing season and are pretty good just need a fresh start.
The oilers are not going to make the playoffs everyone knows that with the amount of inguries they have so they should trade for the future and tank the season so they are daed last.
With this they could get the 1st or 2nd draft choice.
But what they should to do come trade deadline time is go after a number one center. like Jeff carter, Jason Spezza or Thomas Plekanac. They could trade players like souray codliano and o'sullian for one of these players services.So that come next season we have a guy for hempskey and you draft choice to play with cause lets face it horcoff it not that good anymore.

With the oilers in last place in their conference DON'T be surprised if they make a hail mary for KOVALCHUK........they went after every other big fish
Big names would have to go..but the only way I see it happening is a 3 way trade because of the cap issue.............oilers have a ton of young talent and an owner that wants to win now so...KEEP an eye on this soon because edmonton has little time to spare
To NYR:Sidney Crosby,Kris Letang& 1st Rd.draft pick('12);To PGH:Brandon Dubinsky,Chris Higgins,Enver Lisin&2 draft picks(1st Rd.-'11&3rd Rd.-'12)

Rumors running wild about Kovalchuk and his status with Atlanta. Sources have indicated that the Bruins are assembling a package to land the superstar. With Toronto slowly crawling up the standings, Bruins feel they can part with the number 1 pick they aquired through the Kessel deal. Package may include:
Blake Wheeler
Dennis Wideman
Zach Hammil ( prospect )
Toronto 1st round pick 2010
December 22 2009
Montreal trade to chicago cam barker,dustin byfuglien,brent seabrook and patrick sharp for markov,plecky,halack,augie and first rounder then montreal still got to shed 3million maybe trade the brothers some where like the blues or oilers or l.a for prospects or drafts picks
Atlanta trasher's and it's big star Ilya Kovalchuck were talking about the top player contract and the cost was 11 millions a year. so their not gonna sign him... who's gonna get the superstar???
December 21 2009
If the Ducks can get #1 Draft Choice 2009 and #1 Draft Choice 2010 + Luca Sbisa + Joffray Lupul for Pronger no chance they will trade Niedermayer for a #2.
If they trade him at all at trade deadline look for two #1's or a #1 and a prospect.
December 20 2009
Bob gainey should have traded for stall from carolina now he is tearing up the league to late boob boy you suck at your job i hope the fans wake up before it to late or let you run this team and finish last then fire you because we know you would pick some french player instead of hall or segin
Kovalchuk to be traded to Vancouver for Hodgson,Cory Schneider,and Bieksa. Then a second round pick going to the Aneiam Ducks, for Scott Niedemayer to Vancouver.
December 18 2009
Maybe they should trade price and fire bob gainey because they both suck at there job and the fans suffer because of this
December 17 2009
I heard that the Manchester Monarchs AHL wanted to sign ex nhler Shawn Bates.He had to clear waviers. As of today hes not on the Monarchs roster. Any idear where he may be

I heard from a close friend who is close to flyers team and they have a lot of interest for montreaal goalie Jaroslav Halak. Mtl need a top 6 forward.The Jeff Carter name was involved in this trade rumor but phili will not give Carter for Halak,Mtl need to put other players,like D'Agostini,Mara,2nd or 3rd rd pick.
Halak and D'Agostini for Carter
December 13 2009
By the way plechanek 2.75! Hamrlik 5.75 andrei 3.25 and sergei .8 that's close to 10 million of cap and lecavalier 9 so do your math buddy!!
December 12 2009
Lecavalier to Montreal very plosable? Have you ever heard of a salary cap? Do you honestly think you would be able to keep ALL of Camalerri, Giointa, Gomez, Plekanec? Dream on buddy.
Halak has been put on trade market and i seriously think that he would be trade very soon.
The young 24 slovak goalie has prove that he could be the 1st goalie in some team in the NHL.Gainey will try to trade him for a guy who can play has top 6 foward.
St-Louis are not in the race to get Halak.The top teams who will try to get Halak are: Chicago,Florida,Detroit,Flyers and TBL.In the same trade,we could see kostitsyn brothers leaving too.
Halak for Sharp
Halak,Kostitsyn brothers for sharp and Versteeg
Halak and Kostitsyn brothers for Franzen and prospect
Halak and 4th rd pick for Horton
Halak,S.K,Mara and Gomez for Brière and Gagné
Halak and Gomez for Lecavalier and 3rd rd pick
Halak trade to philedelphia for carter
Hey there once again people. Id like to address on a couple of rumors ive been hearing. First i heard rumor of tampa offering philly mike smith for either giroux or vanreimsdirek. Ha ha are you serious? Really? Mike smith fell second to nittimaki who reminder was a goalie philly didnt think was to par to resign. So u offer a back up to him for very possible and capable players of 80 points? Give your head a shake tampa. I heard montreal will be strongly persuing lacaviler if tampa should move him. I like the fact the fifty goal scorer will be coming to canada, however its almost certin his play is on a down side due to the fact hes going through a divorce. Both franchises are acting like vultures and should give him personal space till the man can get his life back together. Also i heard talk of cogliano going to ny for dubinsky. This is a good deal but being neither player has stepped up to there capability of play, i think its best both teams wait to see how there young guns play out. Mattg
December 11 2009
With tampa bay And superstar vicent lecavalier getting close to a divorce don't be surprise to see the habs get involved to add a very needed top 6 foward. Even thougt Tampa has solidified their defense chore with guys like ohlund and hedman the habs would be tented to move veteran defensman roman hamrlik and propably a prospect like dagostini or even maybe the kostityn brothers to help fill Tampas hole that the loss of lecavalier would do. Wouldn't the habs look more dangerous with a first line with plechanek- lecavalier-cammalleri and pouliot-gomez-gionta!? This trade is verry plausible and expect the habs to be agressive on the vincent lecavalier case.

Kovalchuk to Boston for Torontos 2010 1st round, David Krejci and Byron Bitz
I love how most of these rumors people write in are just wishfull - thinking. So on that note here are some real rumors floating around the league...
+ Canadiens GM Bob Gainey seems to be fairly fed up with his team's performance so far this season and is looking to make a trade, reports the Ottawa Sun.
Gainey met with his scouting staff before Friday night's win against the Washington Capitals and it's believed he is trying to trade Andrei and Sergei Kostitsyn in a package deal.
The Ottawa Sun claims that the Edmonton Oilers are interested in both the Kostitsyn brothers, and various reports have linked forward Andrew Cogliano going the other way in trade talks.
Both the Kostitsyn brothers have underperformed so far this season, and Sergei has spent the year in the AHL, must to his displeasure.
+ Disappointed with the play of Peter Mueller so far this season, the Phoenix Coyotes appear to be shopping the young center.
Mueller, 21, has only registered one goal and three assists so far this season. He has a cap hit of $1.7 million and the Coyotes are supposedly looking to trade him, according to CBC Sports.
During Saturday night's "The Hotstove" segment on CBC's Hockey Night in Canada, it was briefly discussed that the Coyotes are looking to move Mueller, though nothing is set in stone.
Coyotes pro scout Peter MacKinnon attended Saturdays Maple Leafs game in Toronto.
The Leafs have been actively looking to make a move and could show an interest in Mueller. The Coyotes, meanwhile, are looking to add some scoring punch and bolster their blueline.
+ Maple Leafs GM Brian Burke and his staff are believed to be aggressively scouring the league trying to find a trade partner or two.
According to various reports, the Leafs are willing to add a high-priced player to help a team with some cap relief.
It's believed around the league that the Leafs are in talks with the Chicago Blackhawks for defenseman Brent Sopel, and CBC reported Saturday night that they may be willing to add Sopel if the Hawks add a high draft pick.
Blackhawks assistant general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff and scout Ryan Stewart attended Saturdays game against the Washington Capitals.
In total, 12 teams had representation at the Leafs game; Anaheim, Boston, Calgary, Chicago, Ottawa, the New York Rangers, Phoenix, Pittsburgh, San Jose, St. Louis and Vancouver.
The Leafs have also been scouting the Ducks this season, while the Coyotes are believed to be looking for help at both ends of the rink.

I dont know why they think BOB GAINEY knows any thing about being a manger he sucks big time 20 games in and still know scoring help even i know you need more than one line he thinks markov going to get us to the promise land even if we had OV the best player in the league it not enough just making to the play offs to be bouce out in the first round is not aceptable he made so many mistakes with drafting,trading,letting everybody go for nothing and not signing the players early before july 1st and i cant believe you want to charge your fans to watch this team play if they played in ohl i would not bet they could win the cup in that league MOSLON BROTHERS PLEASE GET RID OF BOB GAINEY HABS 59
+ You may have heard that the Panthers are trying to trade Nathan Horton and that they wouldn't mind trading Rostislav Olesz either if it helps them acquire a big centre. The Maple Leafs are interested in Horton. But according to the paper, the Panthers would have to take Jason Blake and his $4 million cap hit to make a deal for Horton, who's making $4 million a season on his six-year deal, work. Panthers GM Randy Sexton was asked if he had been actively shopping Horton, and or Olesz and he said the rumours were "absolutely not true."
+ Sources say that Brendan Shanahan, who announced his retirement yesterday, may be in line for a position with the NHL
+ Maple Leafs GM Brian Burke would like to make a few changes to his roster, but he isn't about to rush into a trade. It has been widely reported that veteran Jason Blake could be dealt at some point this season, while Alexei Ponikarovsky, Matt Stajan and Vesa Toskala are also believed to be on the trade block.
+ According to the Chicago Tribune, the Blackhawks are set to sign stars Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews to contract extensions, with an announcement expected this week. It's not yet known as to the type of contracts Kane and Toews will receive, though many anticipate a deal in the eight-year and up range.

Now that Forsberg staying in Sweden look for the Bruins to target an elite goal scorer. Kovalchuk not likely as this would create too many holes that the Bruins won't be able to fill.
Boston will target more so a guy like Sharp or Hornton who will flourish along side Savard. Another option for Boston might be Selanne. Selanne still can put pucks in the net and would be a cheap pick up to end out this season and also would flourish with Savard feeding him the pucks.
+ An NHL general manager says Peter Forsberg is going to stay in Sweden this season. Mike Gillis of the Vancouver Canucks was considering signing the former Colorado star, but said he learned that Forsberg wanted to stay in his home country. Forsberg, who is playing for Modo of the Swedish Elite League after 12 NHL seasons spent mostly with the Avalanche, has dealt with nagging ankle and foot problems for several years.
+ The Rangers have held trade talks with the Habs about forwards Sergei and Andrei Kostitsyn because New York could be without centres Chris Drury and Brandon Dubinsky long term. Drury’s status is uncertain, while Dubinsky is gone 4-6 weeks. Oilers GM Steve Tambellini is also looking at acquiring Sergei, who was a linemate of Edmonton centre Sam Gagner when they played junior together with the OHL’s London Knights. Montreal GM Bob Gainey would love to move Sergei, who is currently with AHL Hamilton.
+ Jaroslav Halak, probably the Slovaks’ starting Olympic goalie, will move on as a free agent in July if the Habs don’t trade him at the deadline.
+ The future of Islanders goalie Martin Biron remains up in the air. There’s no timetable on when goaltender Rick DiPietro will return from injury, but the belief is he could be back soon. League sources say the Kings have looked at the possibility of bringing in Biron to lend support to Jonathan Quick. A more plausible scenario is that Biron will end back with the Sabres to back up Ryan Miller.
+ Phoenix Coyotes general manager Don Maloney travelled to San Antonio Friday November 13 to scout 47-year-old defenseman Chris Chelios, who will be lining up with the Chicago Wolves. "He's there, he's savvy and he's in great shape," Maloney said. "(But) I don't know. The pace of the NHL game is so quick." The Coyotes have not talked with Chelios yet.

Sources say that Jaroslav Halak and Sergei Kostitsyn could be traded for a top 6 forward and defencemen in the up coming weeks.
Limited cap space next season could make it difficult for the Canadiens to re-sign center Tomas Plekanec, who's eligible for UFA status next summer. The Canadiens presently have over $45 million invested in 14 players for next season and if the salary cap declines from its current level of $56.8 million next season there might not be enough room to afford Plekanec, who's due for a big raise, and still leave enough space to re-sign other players like goalie Carey Price.
Anaheim checking forward Todd Marchant is said to be available to any team needing a veteran center. The Ducks are looking to make a move after a slow start.
November 17 2009
Ducks season has crashed. Need to rebuild:
1) Niedermayer to Kings for Jack Johnson and
Kings #1 draft choice 2010. Niedermayer is
perfect for teaching young King defensemen and
leading them into playoffs
2) Bruins look like they really miss Kessel.
They have no big time scorer. Trade Blake Wheeler
and Toronto #1 choice 2011 plus Bostons's 2010 #3
for Bobby Ryan. He is the goal scorer they will need
and he is being paid this year less than a million.
3) Vancouver is looking for a center, trade Saku Koivu
for 2010 #2 and #5 draft choice.
4) Selanne deserves another shot at cup before he
retires. Has 9 goals so far this year so he still
has some punch. Trade him to San Jose for San Jose
2011 #2 and #4 draft choices
5) Keep Giguere as he is not playing well and is paid
too much to move. Instead move Hiller who is
making 1.3 million to Detroit, Chicago, Philly,
or Washington for 2010 #1 draft choice or 2011
#1 and #3.
November 15 2009
Source out of Boston saying that there is going to be a push for Kovalchuk if the Forsberg sweepstakes don't pan out. Package yet to be determined but sources indicate about five roster players on the block in Boston including Krejki, Ryder, Wheeler, Sturm and Wideman. A combination of two or three of those players plus either high end draft picks or prospects is rumored to be on the way to Atlanta.
November 13 2009
To toronto, sharp, to blackhawks,ian white
November 12 2009
Gilbert and Nilison from edmonton for Horton
November 11 trade proposal is crazy.
San Jose gives up Boyle, Pavelski + a 2nd round choice
for three useless piles of dog..... in Avery, Redden, and Roszival, those three NY dogs aren't worth a 7th round 2020 draft choice
November 11 2009
Get the Krejki line together and leave it togehter. That was our best line for a good portion of last year. Trade for help for Savard. Here is my proposal:
Boston - ( D-man )Andrew Ference ( $1.4 MIL ) and prospect ( Zach Hammel ? )
FOR
Chicago - ( RW ) Patrick Sharp ( $4 MIL )
Works because Chicago looking to dump salary and wanting an experienced defenceman
November 09 2009
Coaching rumor's around the league indicate that Tampa Bay may have an interest in bringing in Mike Keenan to motivate the underachieving group in Florida,retaining Rick Tocchet as an assistant.And whisper's out of Carolina that Ted Nolan may resurface replacing Paul Maurice.
Price to chicago
November 08 2009
Look for the Chicago Blackhawk's to adress their goaltending situation by making a deal for either the Isles Dwayne Roloson or Vancouver's Andrew Raycroft sometime in the near future. And the possibility of Pheonix Coyotes defenceman Adrian Aucoin or Ed Jovanovski being dealt to the New York Ranger's. The St.Louis Blue's would entertain the possibility with the Ranger's as well in regard's to Eric Brewer. The Ranger's would also be in the loop in attempting to to make a deal with the Oiler's regarding Sheldon Souray.
The New York Ranger's may trade defenceman Micheal Roszival to the Vancouver Canuck's for defenceman Shayne O'Brien. Then make a deal with Tampa Bay, sending Chris Drury,Artem Anisimov, Bobby Sanguinetti, and cash, to the Bolt's for Vincent Lecavalier. These deal's would structure the Ranger's with player's that fit John Tortorella's system that he is more comfortable with due to past success in Tampa Bay.
November 07 2009
With Vincent Lecavalier looking unhappy & bored in Tampa, look for him to be reunited with his former (and sometime embattled) coach john Tortorella in New York. In exchange the Ranger's would send Tampa, Brandon Dubinsky,Artem Anisimov,Micheal Roszival and Bobby Sanguinetti.

Bruins fan checking out the rumors this morning and seeing that Chicago looking for a deal to make some cap room. I would love to see Sharp in our line-up, A right handed shot that we need to play along side Savard when he comes back. Chicago looking for an experienced d-man so lets ship Ference $1.7 hit along with either prospect ( Hammel ) or Boston 1st round pick 2010. Anyone happy with Recchi this year? About $1 million hit that we should dump.
If Chiarelli would listen to me this is what we could go into the playoffs with:
Sturm Savard Sharp
Wheeler Krejki Ryder
Lucic Bergeron Marchand
Paille Begin Thornton
Chara, Morris, Wideman, Stuart, Hunwick, Boychuk

RE: Chara to LA for Johnson & Brown
If your goal is Cup this year then yes not a good
trade for Bruins but I get the feeling that Bruins
GM is more interested in keeping the Bruins GOOD for
years to come then he is winning cup now ( as in Kessel trade). Over the long term getting a Johnson and Brown for Chara & #1 Bruins get two good YOUNG hockey players and save on cap. Which is it, are Bruins more interested in winning cup NOW or is it they would rather stock pile young players and draft choices and have a good team for years to come ?
October 31 2009
Price & Pleckanec to Vancouver for Luongo
As a Bruins fan I am not liking this rumor that is curculating. This is what I heard:

If bob gainey makes a trade to hawks and they want to get huet and bob trades price bob needs to be fire for being the stupid and dummest GM ever he traded huet for 2 round pick and now huet is over paid and sucks more then ever I am thinking bob really dont know what he is doing just fire him give us fans a break
Does anyone know what the time frame looks like for the potential trade between toronto and chigago or t.o. and l.a. nothing else to look forward to.
October 29 2009
There seems to be a deal done between the canadians and the blackhawks that would ship Carey Price and a conditional draftpick to Chicago for Cristobal Huet.
October 27 2009
Hawks are looking to dump salary so reported rumour is.
To Toronto Maple Leafs:
Brian Campbell - 7.1 cap hit
Patrick Sharp - 3.9 cap hit
Total Cap Hit = 11 million
Leafs have about 4 million available in cap
this trade leaves about 2 million.
To Chicago Black Hawks:
Jeff Finger - 3.5 cap hit
Lee Stempniak - 2.4 cap hit (expiring contract)
Jamal Mayers - 1.4 cap hit (expiring contract)
Jonas Frogren - 1.07 cap hit (expiring contract)
Total Cap Hit = 8.4 million
2010 - 2011 cap space available + 5 million
To Toronto Maple Leafs:
Alexander Frolov (top 6 winger)
To Los Angeles Kings:
Garnet Exelby (top 5 d-man / EXPIRING CONTRACT)
Vesa Toskala - 4 mil salary (back up to Jonathan Quick / EXPIRING CONTRACT)
Daryl Boyce (prospect/ current 4th line player/AHL)
Ryan Hamilton (Prospect/current 4th line player/AHL)
LA needs a back-up/number 1 due to them making a strong play off push. As well as they need a top 4 or 5 defensemen. Two prospect thrown in make the deal look equal for both teams.
Toronto Needs Offense, Frolov is the answer for 25-30 goals a season.
Potential Line-mates:
Ponikarovski - Grabovski - Frolov

LEAFS ARE EMBARASSING AND WILL BE THE WORST TEAM IN THE NHL OVER THE NEXT 5 YEARS GUARANTEED
RE: Savard / Bruins
Being on the west coast I don't see the Bruins every night but observing Peter Chiarelli from here I see Savard being traded at the trade deadline unless he is signed or the Bruins are hiding high, very high. Chiarelli looks to me like the type of GM that will get something back before he allows a valuable asset to get away for nothing.
October 22 2009
Oh crap. Savard out 4-6 weeks. Well, if there was ever a time for Bergeron and Krejki to step up to their full potential it is now. This stretch could make or break the Bruins for this season.
Wednesday NHL Rumour Notebook: Savard to Leafs as UFA?, Chiarelli continues Boston shake-up
Marc Savard is an unrestricted free agent next summer and it’s not going to be easy for the Bruins to re-sign him with their cap issues. It’s why there are plenty of whispers around the league that he is Toronto-bound. There is some logic to it – he is a perfect fit with Phil Kessel – but the true determining factor will be the readiness of Toronto’s young forwards. If Brian Burke feels Nazem Kadri or Tyler Bozak or Mikhail Grabovsky or someone else can mesh with Kessel like Savard did, any of those players is a younger (and cheaper) option. If not, than Savard – assuming he does not re-sign – would be pursued. [CBC]
+ Less than 48 hours after trading struggling forward Chuck Kobasew for draft picks, general manager Peter Chiarelli is at it again, trying to shake the complacency out of the Bruins. Chiarelli traded a third-round pick and a conditional fourth-rounder in next spring’s draft to Buffalo yesterday in exchange for forward Daniel Paille. [Boston Globe]
+ Recent talks between Atlanta general manager Don Waddell and the agent for Ilya Kovalchuk suggest the Thrashers are doing all they can to get a contract done as soon as possible for the star winger, who is in the last year of a five-year deal that will pay him $7.5 million US this season. "My agent is talking and we'll see," Kovalchuk said. "We'll figure out something. I just want to focus on the game because I think it will be a big season for us." There is also talk of interest from the KHL in Russia, which is not limited by a salary cap and may wish to make a statement signing a top NHL star. When asked about the KHL, Kovalchuk only said: "It's a great league. We'll see what happens." [Canadian Press]
+ After seven games, it looks like the Cory Murphy Experiment has come to an end. The 31-year-old defenseman, whom the Devils signed for the NHL minimum of $500,000 during the summer, was placed on waivers yesterday, after failing to score a point in any of his three games this season -- all Devils losses. He had a minus-2 rating. [New York Post]
+ The Blue Jackets have acquired defenseman Michael Ratchuk from the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for winger Stefan Legein. [Columbus Dispatch]
Leafs and Hurricanes
Alexi Ponikarovsky for Tuomo Ruutu
Leafs and Panthers
Mikhail Grabovski for Nathan Horton
Each deals players are close in points with each other. In the deal with the Hurricanes the Leafs will get speed and the 'Canes will get size. And with the Panthers . . the cats will get a skilled, young , fast (still unproven) but good forward and the leafs will get another large force on the team with good offensive skills. Dont cut these possible trades down. . research and see that they would work for both teams!
October 21 2009
If Minnesota only gets a 6th round pick for Harding
then Fletcher should be canned immediately. Hell with helping the father. Cliff should have used his head
before hiring Burke, now he has to beg ?
Ok guys let's use our brains when making rumors. Let's face it iginla pronger heatly thorton are all untouchable players and saying there gonna be traded is grade 3 rumors at best. Look around the league very few star players are gonna be moved this season. Trade deadline would be the best case sinairio and even then your looking at 65 to 70 point players at best. Look for players like frolov Horton halak and other players along those lines. Not luango or gaborik. Now don't go me wrong I em an edmonton fan and would like to see big name players come but it aint gonna happen. Not soon anyways. My top three picks for trades this week are as follows. 1 Montreal who are in desprite need of solidity in defence will make moves. I could see them looking into teams that need a boost in promising young talent. Montreal trades plekanik and subban to nashville for hamues and 2nd rounder in 2010. 2 I think Toronto will look to try and bring in more offence. Difficult yes but Burke has ways. I think shanahan would help if you get his thoughts off of newyork. Doubtful I know. But it wouldn't take much money. 1 I hate to say it but I'm goin with Toronto again. What about kaberla and ponikorosky for Horton out of Florida? Florida is lookin for defenceman to replace bowie and alexie adds a lil more to sweeten the deal. Till next time Matt G

October 17 2009
If bob gainey trade plekanis for a defenceman he needs to be fired on the spot he has screwed this franchise and they keep letting him make the deals this team is done for cause his trades sucks when is one of the moslen brothers going to say bob we will tell you what trades to make now on now we lost 4 in a row time to play halack
October 16 2009
Wilson+kaberle for babcock
October 15 2009
The following should be the line combinations in Boston. I wish coach Julien could see this...
LW C RW
Sturm Savard Wheeler
Lucic Krejki Ryder
Recchi Bergeron Kobasew
Thornton Begin Bitz
At least until we trade for Kovalchuk
So long as Sturm is moved back to LW. Ryder or Wheeler up with Savard and things will be better. In Chiarelli we trust. Go Bruins.
Philadelphia Trading for Marleau doesn't work.
First Phiily does not have a 1st Round draft choice
in 2010, it belongs to Anaheim. Second, Marleau
makes 6 million and Philly only has one million
in cap space. Third, if Philly has a need it will
be a goalie unless Emery has turned his life around.
October 14 2009
You know i have been really thinking about this and it sounds like a great deal to me. the deal with is with san jose. San jose gets james van riemsdyk and a 1st rounder for patrick marleau. Why san jose does this is because marleau is getting old and he just got stripped of his captaincy in the summer so i think this is a great idea.
Dallas / Anaheim Jan 1, 2013 Interesting. Living in Anaheim I can tell you that they would have the Stadium as Anaheim Stadium where Angels play
is one mile away. Big problems are (1) Two big events
already in Southern Cal on Jan 1, Rose Bowl and Rose
parade and (2) ya won't see any snow. Nice thought
though. How about Rangers / Devils ?

FLYERS:
The flyers are looking to be a playoff team so they need to add some goaltending. Here are some goalies that are avaliable next year as unrestricted free agents.Marty Turco and evegeni nabakov are the best free agent goalies next season. As for The offense Kovalchuck is who the flyers should look to add next season. I think this would be a great addition. Possible other players the flyers could add are Marc savard from the Boston bruins, saku koivu from the Anaheim ducks, and olli jokinen from the Calgary flames. Possibly another player with great offense they could add would either be Ryan kesler or Eric staal

October 11 2009
The way the Boston looked against the Caps & Ducks,
they should forget about thinking about Toronto which
they have no control over and work on their own game,
which they do have control over. No doubt Boston will coast in their own little division as TO, BUFF, Mont and Ott are weak. Big question is how will they fare
against Wash, Pitts, Philly. Keep this in mind every year there are team(s) that play much better then expected and there are teams who play much worse than expected. Boston has the talent to go all the way but
if they start believeing their press clippings that they are a lock, well you figure it out.
October 10 2009
I think bob needs one more goal scorer like patrick sharp if he cant make this deal now offer mike pecca 500,000 send max and augie down they need to get tougher in mind and body one line cant do it all

Pronger to Edmonton ? Yep, I am sure Pronger's
wife will go for that she was the driving force
of getting him traded FROM the oilers the last time
he was there. Philly just gave up a ton to get him
from Anaheim and then signed him for 5 more years.
I have better odds of Nicole Kidman or Cindy Crawford
asking me out on a date than this happening.
-Sheldon Souray,Christian huselius and Marc Andre Bergeron could end up being signed by Montreal
-David Booth will eventually get signed by Dallas
-Tavares should sign in Detroit
-I wish the stars would trade for Luongo to
-Kessel should of went to Pheonix

David Booth to Dallas
jarome iginla to Columbus
mike ribiero to Calgary
Jason Arnott to Vancouver
Chris Pronger to Edmonton
Zach Parise To Calgary
Eric Staal to Calgary
Montreal should be signing Marc Andre Bergeron very soon. Or they could also be looking into reacquiring Sheldon Souray in a trade involvinh the Kostitsyns and draft picks. I don't believe that Montreal is that interesting in Brisebois and Dandenault...
October 02 2009
I would like to see Shanahan in Toronto. I think that would be best fit for him at this stage. Toronto needs his leadership and could really help mentor Kessel.

Anybody know what's going on with Rangers and Sharks.
One week until the season opens and Rangers have only 16 players signed with 6 million cap space, Sharks 15 players signed with 4 million cap space left. Sorta cutting close aren't they ?
September 23 2009
Really ?
Huge investment on a player who has had cancer and shoulder problems. That shoulder will now be a little
weaker than before the injury and in case you didn't know, cancer reacures and considering he got it at a
young age, not a good sign. You want to make that bet with two #1's a #2 plus the trading away of a number #2 & and a #3 in 2011 to get the #2 used in the trade ?
At a stretch I can maybe see this if the Leafs had a snow balls chance in hell of winning cup and he is the missing piece but they don't. They will need a lot of "new" players to get there not just one. For the same money they could have gotten a potential 30 goal forward in free agency and kept the draft picks. True
it may turn out ok but if it doesn't the Leafs are screwed.
September 22 2009
I wouldn't exactly call a guy injury prone because he had Cancer. It's not like scott stevens caught him coming over the middle with his head down and rather then laying him out decided to inject him with cancer! Plus there is also the fact that after coming back from cancer he scored 36 goals! Please think about what your writing before you post it.
September 21 2009
The more I think about the Kessel trade the more I dislike it from Toronto's part. Think about it.
They did not give up (2) #1, and a #2, they gave up
(2) #1's, a #2 and a #3 ( remember that they traded their 2011 #2 abd #3 to get back a 2010 #2 which went to Boston, so they really gave up 2010 #1 and 2011
#1, #2 and #3. Next, if July rumors were right they
could have gotten Kessel for their #1 in 2009 and Kaberle.
If that is right then what we are saying is that they gave up their 2011 #1 -#2 and #3 to keep Kaberle.
Next, Burke has spent his way to the top of the cap,
just like he did with the Ducks before he skipped town.
Next he has traded away a lot of future draft choices just like he did with the Ducks before he skipped town.
What did he get back (1) a young player with a lot of talent who he cannot use first half of season. (2) A young talented player who has had one good NHL season.
(3) A young talented player who my be injury prone.
(remember he had cancer). Why didn't he just sign Mike
Cammalleri (Montreal) and keep all those draft choices ?
September 20 2009
Don't see Toskala going to LA. I do see either Hiller or Giguere of Anaheim going there. Hiller is a UFA end of this season and look for Ducks to trade him by trading deadline if they can not sign him to extended contract. If they do resign Hiller then Giguere will go. Giguere has a no trade clause but if Hiller plays well enough to take #1 spot, most likely Giguere will wave that becuase he doesn't want to spend the rest of his hockey life as a backup. On the other hand with a no trade clause he will get to pick where he goes.
Philly if Emery doesn't work out ? His home town Montreal and be a mentor to Price ? LA since he won't have to sell his house and move ? Washington, great team but suspect goaltending, who knows.
Kessel deal finally done. Nicely done ( Boston ) Peter Chiarelli. No panic and got a very good return. Team still looks good and you have future galore.
September 19 2009
Heard leafs were trying to get Doug Rome to sign
Toskela to LA makes sense LA has been rebuilding for 10 years, and now when they picked up Ryan Smyth, you know they are going to make a run. And they have nothing spectacular in net
In Toronto, the Leafs didnt pick up Joey Macdonald to play in the minors, therefore they could go with The Moster and Macdonald
Kessel to Toronto.
Strange trade, why not take the risk and sign him to a offer sheet and forcing Boston to match or get a #1, #2 and #3 instead of (2) #1's and #2. Burke blinked.
Also, Leafs out of cap space, Burke has done the same thing to Leafs as he did to Ducks, spent up to top of cap and strip the team of future draft choices, remember he gave up a 2011 #2 & #3 to Calgary to get 2010 #2. To boot Kessel is out the first 2-3 months of the season. Burke would have been better off signing one of the forward free agents in July and keeping the draft choices. With no top draft choices the next two years and no cap space, he will have to dump forwards next spring to bring in higher quality. Boston almost got as much for Kessel as Anaheim got for Pronger.
September 17 2009
L.A in need of some vetern depth in goal and foward
Ersberg, Schenn to Toronto for Toskala, Poni and Mayers
Toskala can push Quick this year while Bernier gets one more season in the A, and Poni and Mayers add scoring, muscle and penalty killing to a young foward group. L.A has enough young prospects that they can afford to trade one or two for vetern help
September 15 2009
I overheard something interesting being discussed. There is a possible trade coming up involving the Edmonton Oilers and Los Angeles Kings. It appears that Sheldon Souray has asked to be traded to Los Angeles so he can be closer to his kids and in return, Mr. Canada ......... Ryan Smyth is set to return!

Yes i agree Mr gainey should be fired but he could not trade the team before the dead line that would have taking alot of BALLS and we know that only genius would pulled this off you imgine the draft picks they would have got in bell center the fans would have seen a mircle with all those picks even trades well easy to say after the fact
Ok enough talk about that bum heatly. Let's face it edmonton will be a better team with out another disease. Oh and san Jose don't be shocked when he wants out in 3 years due to personal reasons (ya he's a cry baby). I think e town should really push to sign zherdev. A forward capable of 30 goals he just needs motavation. Florida has had interest in penner so send him for a 3rd and 6th round pick. Really were not losing much ha ha oh 17 goals won't hurt. Now rumor has it Boston is intersted in picking up a mobile defence with out making kessel part of the deal but who do you part with? Sheldon? Lubamir?tom? That's a tough choice but rumored to be for savard Ryder or bergeron. I couldn't tell you who I would send I'm just thinkin throw nilson in there before you get the deal done.

Former Columbus Blue Jacket GM Doug Maclean has been signed on to Jim Balsillie's camp in hopes of having some type of influence in landing a Hamilton franchise.
The problem is, most people remember Maclean as a poor hockey executive, and most recently an out of touch radio personality.
As well, MacLean doesn't seem to have any credibility as for months Maclean has been blasting Ballslie on the air waves, and now has become a turncoat...just because Ballsile has now offered MacLean a job.

You guessed it, the Toronto Maple Leafs !!!
I dont know how bob gainey still has a job all that money and look at the team he give the fans i heard thee guys talking how bob fire guy and how bad this team was that he made so he knew he was getting rid of everybody why not trade everyone for draft picks before the trade dead line this would make more sence to me
Rumors heating up in Nashville that Kessel is coming. Latest rumor has Tootoo and 1st round pick in 2010 going to Boston in return.

Toronto will send an offer sheet to Phil Kessel
Kessel is on his way to the leafs, still think burke should go after brayden schenn out of L.A. but it would take an armful to pry him out of lala land...
September 06 2009
Doug Wilson or Brian Burke to pull the trigger on the Phil Kessel offer sheet.... If it's burke expect to see Heatley in San Jose. Kessel will not play for Boston this year.
September 05 2009
Just talked to a source that says the Brad Richards to new York rangers deal is still alive. The rangers would offer higgins and kotalik.
September 04 2009
I like Thomas from the Bruins but I agree, Tuukka Rask is ready. $5 million per season for Thomas was a mistake. They could have gotton someone like Gerber or Biron for much cheaper who with the Bruins could have done just as well. Tim had a good year but it looked better because everyone else was having a sub par season and Luongo and Broduer missed too many games or one of them would have taken home the Vezina.
I honestly don't think the Bruins offence will suffer without Kessel because I see Wheeler playing along side Savard and in doing so will put up 35 to 40 goals for sure. The return of Sturm will then pick up the rest as he is a 25 to 30 goal man himself. I think Kessel is gone, just interested in what the return will be.
Crosby to Montreal for camallari,gomez, and gionta.
September 03 2009
Bruins should trade Tim Thomas and give Tuukka Rask the ball to run with. This would free up money to get Kessel signed.

Interesting. boston does have enough pieces to make that kind of deal happen and i think they can do it without disrupting the chemistry of the team. heatly can return to 50 goal form so long as boston keeps savard to feed him the passes. i also think this could and should happen.

Mathieu schneider to sigh in vancover
Roy want back in nhl as a starter in new jersey
With the loss of Sergi Zubov, the Dallas Stars do not have any puck moving defensemen. In fact, on paper the Dallas Stars defense looks more like an AHL roster. With limited ice time that can be distributed between centres RiBerio, Richards and Modano, look for the Dallas to flip Brad Richards to the Toronto Maple Leafs for defenseman Tomas Kabarle. This also helps Toronto as they have 9 NHL defensemen and absolutely NO star power in their forward ranks.
August 24 2009
Boston Has a real problem with Kessel. It boils down to
A) Sign and keep him but then they would have to dump one or two others to get him under the cap. B) Trade him for draft choices but then they have a hole in their line up or C) Trading him for other players doesn't work because anybody they get back if he is any good will also cause Boston a salary cap problem.
Here is a possible solution. 1) Sign Kessel to a 3 year contract at 3.5 years. 2) Trade him to Anaheim for Bobby Ryan who is making 765K this year + bonus.
Ryan is going to be a big time goal scorer and will fill the hole Kessel leaves BUT Boston will have to give up more than Kessel since 1) Kessel is damaged goods and won't be ready until December at the earliest. 2) Anaheim is taking on aboout 3 million extra salary cap. Figure Ryan to Boston for Kessel and Boston's #1 Draft choice in 2010 and 2011.
Remembers Boston's #1's will be in the very late 20's so they are not that valuable. Boston gets a goal scorer to make their run for the cup. Anaheim gets a young Kessel + 2 #1 choice to continue their rebuilding
August 23 2009
As a Bruins fan I like that Heatley and Fischer for Kessel and Savard deal but the dollars still don't make sense. I would let Sturm or Kobasew go though if it meant clearing cap room to bring in Heatley. Boston needs that type of player to put them over the top. We saw that last year vs. Carolina with Staal. Too much attention payed to Staal and the Bruins game filtered and couldn't get anything done. Heatley is a game breaker pure and simple. Would love to have him.
How about keep Savard and give up Kessel, Sturm and Kobasew for Healtey. Boston has enough depth to fill those spots quite easily and we would have our difference maker that we need so bad and then we could probably keep Savard after this year. What do you think ?

Do you know who finished 10th in scoring last year? Shocking....the leafs. With a D-man on the out soon Toronto should expect a 1st or 2nd line center coming there way shortly to add to their scoring prowress. They got stronger in net and tough and large on D. Laugh as you might but some of Toronto's dimunitive forwards will be spending much less time peeling themselves off the boards and a lot more time putting pucks in the net. They will make the playoffs, but we don't know the starting roster yet.
Nathan Horton to Buffalo for Drew Stafford in a package deal. Per WGR550, Sabres radio network.
Andrei Markov, Roman Hamrlik, Tomas Plekanec, Jaroslav Halak for Alexander Ovechkin this would never happen one teams don't accept alot of players for one b/c of there limit on roster another gainey wouldn't get rid of his best defender. Also washington would never give up ovy

Does anyone know for sure what kind of money Phil Kessel is seeking ? I have heard anywhere from 3.5 to 5 + million per year. Could someone narrow that down to within 500 grand either way instead of 2 million.
If Kessel is seeking 5+ million then I would trade hime but if he is around 3.5 to 4 million max I would hang on to him in case someone goes down with a long term injury then Boston could then sign him without trading anyone to make room.

Savard for Kaberle ? C'mon. Boston is trying to build a cup winner and I am pretty sure that will include Marc Savard. Here is a list of potential movers on the Bruins roster but also keep in mind no movement will happen until the end of November as Kessel won't count against the cap until then, but of course he needs to be signed first. If he doesn't sign then I guess we don't need to worry about the cap. Kessel / Wheeler / Sturm / Kobasew / Bergeron / Ryder will be battling for jobs and weakest player will be moved. Period.
July 31 2009
Savard for Kaberle? Boston is over the cap and still needs to re-sign Kessel. Savard's contract is up at the end of the season and Boston will have a tough time getting him signed to an extension. Savard is set to make $5 mil while Kaberle is a $4.25 mil for the next 2 years. From what I'm hearing, we could see a Savard/Sturm/Glen Murray's Cap Hit($1.38 mil/1 year) for Kaberle/Ponikarovsky. Toronto takes on some extra money, and gets a #1 center in the process, while Boston gets a great puck moving defenceman at a great price for the next 2 seasons. This would free up $3.5 mil in cap space, to help the B's re-sign Kessel.
July 30 2009
For the guy who said Kaberle to van for Kesler etc. Are u on cloud 9? Pogge isn't even a decent ahl netminder so nobody wants him. U must have forgot to put Schenn and 10 1st rounders in (just kidding) But Kesler is more untouchable in Van then Schenn is in Toronto. They without a doubt if u know anything about hockey will not give Kesler up Straight up for Kaberle. I think Kaberle is a great defenseman, but he's no where near Pronger lidstrom, Chara, Green etc. he's a number 2 defenseman. here's what to expect for Kabs. Bernier and Schiender or Kab's along with a 1st or 2nd rounder for Kessel, or Drew Stafford and a 3rd (or prospect) Burke has made a mess of the leafs. Who is gonna score, they r tough but they r out of cap room.
July 29 2009
The Toronto Maple Leafs are pursuing UFA Brendnan Shanahan
Lidstron for crosbey
July 28 2009
Tomas Kabarle, Jiri Tulsty and Alex Foster

July 27 2009
Yet another good move by Boston. Look I said before,
it will be forwards battling for jobs to see if Kessel stays or goes or someone like Sturm or Wheeler etc. That is where Peter Chiarelli will get the money to sign Kessel. As far as Ward, I liked him but his injuries are getting the better of him and at age 36 will only struggle more to stay healthy. Derek Morris is a good defenceman, just turning 31 and even though not greatly superior to Ward, he is still better and that is what it is all about, becoming better.

July 22 2009
I see what Chia is doing in Boston. We won't see changes until training camp. We are going to see an actual fight for starting roles and we will only then see who will be traded. Don't get me wrong, you will see Savard and Lucic and Chara and some others for sure but your Sturms and Kobasews and Wheelers and of course Kessels will need to bring there A game. I think that is where Boston sits right now and if you have names like that fighting for a job, well that isn't a bad place to be sitting.
At the end of the day I still think Kessel is the one that will be gone. Sturm and Kobasew both 20+ goal guys who can play both ends of the ice well and Wheeler has more upside potential than Kessel in my opinion. Bigger and just as fast as Kessel and I think given the same passing of Savard would score even more than Kessel and is more solid defensively. I like Kessel but everyone else brings that two-way dimension that typical Bruins need.
The Leafs and Panthers have a deal on the table
Tomas Kabarle, Alexi Ponkarosky, Mats Stajan, Jiri Tulsty for Nathan Horton and Adam Keefe

Why dont bob gainey sign morris then later worrie about keeping him 4million 4years then trade the hammer
July 20 2009
Multiple rumors suggest that a kaberle deal to vancouver is all but done. I wonder what the return is. No way Van moves a roster d man and toronto doesn't need one. And Bieksa and Edlar are better anyway. Edlar not yet but has better upside and Bieksa is more rounded. C Hodgson and Kesler are as untouchable to van as scheen is to toronto. Soooo, a deal must be centred around C Schinider. possibly with Hansen/Raymond and a 3 rd or 4th rounder. THis way Toronto gets solid prospects and flips a goalie and maybe a higher pic for Sharpe? Schinider and a 2nd and 4th for Sharpe.
Mats Stajan to Buffalo for future considerations

Habs and Bruins will never trade with each other. At least not since Boston traded Ken Dryden to the Habs for squat way back. I don't see Savard being dealt unless the team struggles for whatever reason. I stated before that anything short of a cup this year and there will be several high end players gone from Boston next year. Savard, Sturm, Bergeron and maybe even Chara. Those 4 players alone are 20+ million.

Bruins. Once Hunwick is signed, that gives the Bruins 3 puck moving defencemen in Chara / Wideman and Hunwick. Round out the other side with Ward / Ference / Stuart and Boychuk. If Boston rids Kessel for a D-man, I think they should go after Doughty from Los Angeles. This kid ( only 20 ) is already a phenominal defensive guy. That is a guy I would package Kessel for along with either Ward or Ference or Prospect Zach Hammel. Yes Doughty is that good. Kaberle is overrated.

Tomas Kaberle trade is imminent. Likely he's going to either Boston, Chicago, or Vancouver.
Jeff Finger may be traded as he is the odd man out with the recent Beauchemin signing.
Leafs still have one defenceman left on their radar coming from the Western conference. Possesses a good shot like Kubina and can fill in the offensive gap that losing Kaberle would create.
Pogge and a conditional pick (Versteeg signs or not) to Chicago for Versteeg
The Minnesota Wild are close to a short term contract with Manny Fernandez for the teams backup role. Expected to be roughly over $1 million per.

The Boston Bruins have re-signed forward Mark Recchi to a one-year, $1 million contract.
This just in. Trade between Boston and Tornonto finalized.
To Toronto : F - Phil Kessel / D - Andrew Ference
To Boston : D - Thomas Kaberle
Three-way trade possible involving Leafs, Hawks, and Sharks. Key components are Hawks getting a defenseman, Leafs getting a young physical forward (most likely from Chicago) and losing one of their goalie prospects (most likely Pogge), and Sharks losing a defenseman. Cheechoo and Kaberle are believed to be not involved in the trade.
To Toronto:

Saku Koivu down to two teams, Anaheim and Minnesota. Selanne is trying to persuade him to sign with the Ducks however his brother Mikko plays for the Wild. If he chooses Anaheim, don't expect his contract to be a lengthy one.

Gionta in montreal
Bob gainey pee off all the ufa;s they dont want to stay then he over pays for a centermen now he needs to go away and stay away before he screw the team for good
I hate Montreal but I hate more the constant complaining abiout Gainey. He did alot of moves and contrary to popular belief, these moves make the Habs better which is what you wanted. First off even though he paid alot, he got people who want to play ( huge ). I am a Bruins fan and am a bit scared of this line up Gainey has began to assemble.
Steve Begin ? Really ? Not really seeing logic in this Peter Chierelli but at least he is cheap. Does this mean you let Recchi walk ? That is too bad, I liked him and he fit in here. Hopefully a replacement for Axellson or Yelle even though I liked them too but Begin can do the same job and is younger and more affordable. Just bugging you Peter, bigger moves to come later, right ?
Boston and Pittsburg on verge of blockbuster:
To Pittsburgh : Savard / Kessel / Wideman
To Boston : Malkin
I'd be surprised if Bryan Murray traded Dany Heatley at this point.
Los Angeles big need is a veteran defenseman, but they are going to have to overpay for one of the last big fish out there at this point if they want to make the playoffs, and rumour has it they've sent offers to Adrian Aucoin, Derek Morris, and Nick Boynton.
Robert Lang to Pittsburgh (2 years/$2.5 million per year). Pascal Dupuis and Casey Pierro-Zabotel trade to LA for Jack Johnson rights.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are still after at least one quality winger, but the wingers may not necessarily come through free agency. Toronto has 10 defensemen under contract who either played for the team this past season or held a regular roster spot on another team (Komisarek and Exelby), and it's believed that Ian White would be most likely among this group to be dealt in such a trade scenario.
Kurtis Foster is entertaining offers from Columbus, Tampa Bay, Toronto, and Vancouver. Minnesota is also eager to re-sign him however they won't address the need until they sign a key UFA forward they are seeking.
Jonas Gustavsson will sign with the Dallas Stars, Antero Niittymaki will ultimately end up in Toronto.
Minnesota and Tampa Bay are talking trade, key pieces are Josh Harding and Ty Wishart.
Colorado's tendem for next season is Andersen and Budaj. Avs are done shopping for goalies.
July 01 2009
The Leafs are interested in LA goalie Joanthan Bernier
Mike Komeserek to join Flyers tomorrow July 1. I hate Philly but I heard this rumor today from my wifes cousin who works in the Montreal organization who is friends with Komeserek.
Glen Sather just fleeced Bob Gainey. Sure, Montreal fills their void at center on the first line, but Scott Gomez' contract is absurd for a team that needs to fill a lot of holes this off-season, and in no way should he have given up Ryan McDonagh to take on his contract.
Vancouver is making a run for Tomas Kaberle, offering a roster player, a prospect and a pick. The prospect is believed to be Taylor Ellington.
Calgary hopes to sign a 2nd and 3rd line forward and a top 4 defenseman this off-season, however, they will only have just under $5 million in cap space to play with. Despite rumours, Calgary will not part with Dion Phaneuf, however there are teams believed to be interested in Daymond Langkow and Cory Sarich, both tradable (beneficial for Calgary) due to their salaries.
June 30 2009
BOB GAINEY did not get his trade now watch him over pay to get players to play on this team god i dont know why he has a job the molson boys should kick him to the curb before he makes many mastakes vinny is not the olny centermen if your going to trade whole team get kopitar i hope bob dont ruin us
June 29 2009
NYR Rosival and Zheredev for Heatly

Why would gainey waste his time on Vinny there young and bigger centermen out there sign our free agents and get them for less money and then sign sedin twins jordon stall is the man we need not a over paid french player come on BOB trade for jordin show us fans that you know how to make a winning team
TAMPA BAY has suck for 2 or 3 years vinny is over rated look it the players on that team he plays with to finish that bad season in and season out and being over paid as well i think montreal should stay away from him i would go after a younger centermen a kopitar or stall and the sedin twins habs59
The original rumor had Kaberle along with Toronto 7th overall pick this year to Boston for Kessel. Later was determined that Toronto was offering Kaberle but it would be Kessel and a draft pick going to Toronto. Not sure if it was Bostons 1st round pick ( Jordan Caron )but assuming so. So as a Bruins fan I loved the first deal rumored but now seeing who they picked along with Kessel I would not do that trade. Jordan Caron is a big centerman who plays with edge like Lucic. No deal.
Here is what the Bruins need to do.
Let the following players walk via free agency :
Axellson / Yelle / Hnidy $ 4-5 million
Sign Kessel / Recchi / Bitz $ 5-7 million
Trade Ward or Ference or both ( $ 5 million ) along with prospect Zach Hammel To Toronto for Kaberle ( $ 4.25 million )
Bostons defence would then = Chara, Kaberle, Wideman, Hunwick, Montador, Stuart + prospects that can work into the system
Possible trade brewing between Toronto and Atlanta. Thrashers want Kaberle and are offering one of Lehtonen or Pavelec and a prospect. Toronto won't commit to the trade as they are awaiting Jonas Gustavsson's decision as to where he will sign along with hearing other teams offers. Kaberle will not be traded until July 1 at the earliest.
Calgary, Dallas, Minnesota, Toronto, and Vancouver are believed to be interested in acquiring Johnny Oduya's rights, however New Jersey are believed to have presented a 3yr/$11.5 million offer to re-sign him.
June 27 2009
WHAT IS THE lEAF TRADE? WITH A PICK FROM tORONTO OR A PICK FROM bOSTON?
To Toronto:
B. Schenn
5th round pick (#125) from LA
To Ottawa:
N. Kadri
O. Moller
A. Frolov
2nd round pick (#35) from LA
To Los Angeles:
D. Heatley
2nd round pick (#50) from TOR
June 26 2009
Heatley and Spezza to NYI for 1rst pick overall 2009 and 2010.
Gilbert Cogliano 10th overall and next years 2 rounder for Heatly your thoughts?
I also heard Nilsson for Tootoo which makes no sense to me an Edmonton fan but we are talking Nashville
I don't like seeing trades involving Kessel out of Boston. I really think they will find a way to keep him. How could you think of trading a 21 year ols with mountains of potential still ahead of him and WANTS to stay in Boston. I think they make moves but this would be utterly stupid. Just my opinion. Sturm would bring interest and has $3.5 million per year he can take with him. Don't trade Kessel !!!!!
June 25 2009
The Los Angeles Kings are the most interested in Dany Heatley than any other NHL team who wants him. If the Kings GM Dean Lombardi does get Heatley, he would trade Kings forward Alex Frolov, Kings defencemen Jack Johnson, and a fifth round draft pick for Dany Heatley.
June 24 2009
Lecavalier and St-Louis in Montreal before thursday!
Tampaa Bay trades 2nd Overall pick to Nashville for Shea Weber
Jay Bouwmeester signs with the Dallas Stars On July 1st
June 23 2009
Hemsky part of the three way deal because he is unhappy in Edmonton. Boston interested in him because of his $ 4.1 million per year contract which is affordable and has a couple years left on it. Heatly $ 7.5 Miilion can be gobbled up by Edmonton and Kessel projected to make between $ 5 and $ 6 million which the Bruins can not really afford because they have others to sign as well so Ottawa very interested in obtaining Kessels goal scoring touch that will fill the void when H
23 June 2009
The Kings have the cap room to absorb Heatley's contract. The Kings have would be thrilled at Heatley and Kopitar playing together. This could push the Kings back into the playoffs with the addition of some young talent that will make the team this year.
Kings would send Oscar Moller, Kyle Quincey, Colten Teubert and their 2009 1st RND draf pick to Ottawa. Kings would recieve Danny Heatley, Cody Bass, Mattias Karlsson and Peter Wiercioch.
June 22 2009
If Heatley is not staying in Canada he will be going to San Jose for Joe Thornton. San Jose is ready to try something new with Thornton being a dissappointment once again this playoff season. Thornton is 30 and Heatley is 28, this deal makes sense.
June 21 2009
This rumor is no pipe dream. Ottawa wants the young forwards because they are as if not more affordable than Heatly and they need to make up the scoring that leaves when Heatly goes. The puck moving D-man you and everyone else will be seeking is available July 1 and goes by the name of Jay Bouwmeester. Every team involved in the 3-way deal either gets better on the ice or remains status quo with the exeption of having a more affordable product. Check out the salaries ( perfect sense ).
Major four-team trade: Heatley from Ottawa to L.A. for Kings first round pick; Briere from Philly to Tampa for Lecavalier, then Lecavalier from Flyers to Ottawa for the Kings pick while Briere sent by Lightning to L.A. for Jack Johnson and picks. T.B. also gets prospect from Ottawa.
Phoenix needs a big, # 1 center, Phi needs a good young goalie to work with Emery, so:
Phoenix: Mueller, Montoya, Dawes
Philly : Carter
Phoenix gets its big center and Philly gets a good young goalie (from the area) and 2 young forwards.And now Briere and Richards center top 2 lines and Philly also gets some cap relief.
Kaberle Yandle
Mayers Dawes
2010 1st rnder (from Calgary)
Spezza Stajan
Lee Kubina
Ponikarovsky
Ottawa gets to start over with Spezza's overpriced salary gone to TO for an offensive D with size and some
depth up front. Burke gets the big # 1 center he covets
who is a better player than Tavares will ever hope to be.
Bob gainey could offer koivu 2.5 or 3 million least sign one player and offer #27 3 or 3.5 and tangauy 4or 4.5 million least or do something soon before it to late or he will over pay later then he can sign the twins there tough enough and 80 points a year thats better than the three people that are on this form and maybe trade for jordon stall and sign chris neil
Montreal Canadiens is sold to the molson brothers good now we can make our moves congratulations molson brothers now that being said make us proud again a winning team good luck with this
Flames talk with Sens for Heatley.
Just the rumor that I have heard from a source inside of the Flames Organization that a proposal has been made and it is being seriously considered by Ottawa management.
Ottawa would send Danny Heatley and Anton Volchenkov to Calgary for Greg Nemisz, Adam Pardy, T.J Brodie, Leland Irving and Calgary's 2009 1st round pick.
June 20 2009
First off, Ottawa needs a puck moving D-man, so the thought of them trading Heatley for a pair of forwards is a pipe dream. So no Hemsky, or Kessel to Ottawa for anyone. If the Oilers want Heatley, it would be for a sniper winger to go with Hemsky.
Gilbert or Smid, Pisani and Schremp plus a pick for Heatley and Campoli.
Phx: Jovanoski Phi: Briere
Mueller Coburn
June 18 2009
Alright this is getting exciting. New rumor has a three way deal involving Ottawa, Boston and Edmonton.
Ottawa to get F Phil Kessel and F Sam Ganger
Boston to get F Ales Hemsky and F Nick Foligno
Edmonton to get F Dany Heatly and F Marco Sturm
Makes perfect cap sense for everyone as Edmonton has the most cap room and can absorb Heatlys $4 million bonus. Looks like a Win Win Win for all three teams.
Shawn horcoff to san jose for patrick marleau heard from a close friend in the oiler organization
June 17 2009
HEATLEY FOR TOEWS AND BARKER!
June 15 2009
Kessel, Bergeron, Sturm
for
Heatley, Fisher and Foligno
Pronger to LA for Jack Johnson
Dany Heatley and Chris Phillips to Edmonton for Hemskey , Smid.
June 13 2009
Wild rumor out of Boston has Chara returning to Ottawa along with Phil Kessel for Dany Heatly and Chris Phillips. Rumors persisting that now Heatly would prefer a canadian based team however his ice time issue would not be an issue in Boston and he would be the main piece on the first power-play unit. Rumors claiming then that if that trade would happen the Bruins would persue either Pronger or Bouwmeester to replace the big man ( Chara ).
Montreal should get rid of mr gainey he had the job for five years and look at how close he been at winning the cup he made countless screw ups come on you should have sign some other players during the season now they can wait for a better deal or drive up there price because they can get more from a nother team you should learn from your mastakes but every year you screw up and give false hope to us fans
June 10 2009
Gainey will not do much because he is a joke and the rumor is he wants to give #27 a big raise he nuts if anything 4million is plenty for that player
Now you hear philly making this deal or that deal the truth is there screw olny if other teams take on there mistakes they can make trades but if your going to help them you should ask for richards or carter not little beire or some other high price player off there team they got greedy now let them pay
Do you think gainey sign the sedin twins and#27 and higgins tanguay naw I dreaming he not that smart
Dany Heatly requesting a trade from the Senators. I have a guy with the Senators organization who is close to Heatly and he says he wants to go to Boston. Figuring in on a package deal that would likely include Phil Kessel going to Ottawa. Salary cap obviously a factor so we'll see. Rumors will likely heat up in the next few days.
June 05 2009
THE BOSTON BRUINS HAVE RE-SIGNED RESTRICTED FREE AGENT DAVID KREJCI TO MULTI YEAR EXTENSION DEAL!!!! TERMS OF THE DEAL NOT DISCLOSED
Toronto go get braden scheen he is the face with luke
May 30 2009
If gainey give kovy a big raise he is the biggest idiot in the league why don't they just fire him and pay someone else 7 million dollars
May 28 2009
I see Gainey must have read my idea about Boston signing away Kovalev because he apparently has offered a deal to Kovalev and even is going to make him captain if he signs. That is ok. Peter Chirelli knows what he needs to be better including not over using players ( Chara ) and having everyone a 100% and not caring about where they place in the standings because obviously, that don't mean anything. Place your bets Pronger ? Bowmeester ? coming to Boston via however.
May 27 2009
Boston guy here. I think we need to make a deal to create space for...wait for it...Alex Kovalev !!! NO I am not on crack. Think about it. Power play. On line with Savard and Lucic. Marquee player who Julien could get alot of mileage out of this gut at least for one year. Most important, he wouldn't be playing against us. How much more would Boston have dominated with this guy out of the Habs line up, never mind injected into ours. Just not sure who to move. Have Axellson's spot maybe. Let Thornton, Axellson, Recchi walk ?
May 19 2009
IF bob gainey traded for daniel beire he needs to be band from hockey he is to expensive and to small cant gainey figure it out you need size I wish he would watch the rest of the playoffs maybe he would learn something about winning as a manager as a plaYER he had a good coach and the desire to play hard to win
After hearing the Toronto Maple Leafs trade rumors with the Tampa Bay Lightning I was highly doubtful the Brian Burke would ever dream of dealing his 2 star defense men for the likes of gritty Ryan Malone and a shot at landing John Tavares at the 09 entry draft. If the Islanders were to draft Tavares over Hedman, the leafs would be landing just another rookie defense-man perfectly equal to youngster Luke Schenn. This compares to gambling at the casino if you know what I'm saying but Brian Burke has put these rumors to rest
May 18 2009
Toronto trade kaberle and white to tampa for there 2nd pick
Toronto trade's kubina kaberle and schen and 7th pick for tampa 2nd pick and gets stamkos
May 16 2009
I wish montreal would sell the team so they can replace BOB GAINEY
My Bruins are done but I gotta say; for a team that was supposed to struggle to even make the playoffs, you ( Bruins ) have made huge strides this year. Keep your heads up, you showed a ton of heart in the final three games and I know you WILL improve next year. Looking forward to it.
May 13 2009
Gainey please quit you suck as a coach and GM that was the team to win the cup boy that shows you what you know one more week the team would not been in the playoffs step down please
May 11 2009
If bob was smart he would stay away from a vinny trade and tell everybody he is not interested and then this team can move forward we need to get bigger all around up front and back
May 10 2009
Where is the Wizard of OZ when you need him ? Boston Bruins need Heart and fast. Is it possible to take a team that litely that you would put yourselves in a 3-1 hole. Boston still has the players to accomplish a series win against Carolina and do it this year but they need a serious injection of Heart. Kessel seems out of it but at times Boston can dominate and then just collapse like thier mind is on somthing else. Wee, against the wall and the Hurricane is rising to catagory 5, lets figure it out. Go Bruins Go !!!
May 09 2009
Do or die tonight for my B's. Forget games 2 and 3 and play the way that got you to #1 in the East and through the first five games. Forget specific matchups. Roll 4 lines, focus like never before and giver snoose. Go Boston Go !!!
Boston logo " We Want It " . OK what exactly is it that you want ? It sure isn't the Stanley Cup. Where is the Heart ? What the Hell is going on ? This is real goddamn emberrasing. Totally lifeless. What a stink fest. Listen up ! Bench the following Kessel ( heartless ), Montador ( sucks ), Recchi ( too small and slow ) then put Wheeler with Savard in Kessels place and Bitz on the left and put Lucic with Krejki and Ryder to jump start them. Sobotaka in for Recchi. Couple other Providence boys to round things out. GO !
May 08 2009
Rumours are that Montreal is working out a trade With Toronto.
The Deal includes rookie Luke Schenn and Montreal's PK Subban
More to come about that deal
May 07 2009
How is the Chara vs Staal matchup Claude ? Chara and Montador are costing Boston this series. How many damn give aways have to happen Big Z. Shake up the damn lines. Wheeler is struggling and would be better suited with Savard and create a little more offence. Lucic can play anywhere. Montador flat out sucks. Bring in Bitz and Hnidy and throw Axellson on the blueline as he has fit in there before. Forget the damn matchup and just go play your ass off.
