@TheFourthPeriod:

Sens highly unlikely to trade Michalek. Explored market on him (and on some other guy) but pending UFA Michalek likely sticking around.

I'm interested to see who gets Marty Brodeur

@theScore:

Both the New York Rangers and Ryan Callahan are reportedly unwilling to budge in their contract negotiations. http://t.co/6fbjcH8BMC

But why would anyone want Brodeur? Five years ago I could see it. Now? It's time for...

8:44AM: “As someone from the team said, today either brings what could be the deadline’s biggest blockbuster or nothing at all.” [ame="http://twitter.com/LightningTimes/status/441207106570842112"](Damian Cristodero)[/ame]

8:42AM: “He has a chip on his shoulder, if I were Steve Yzerman I would say that you are giving me Chris Kreider, Ryan McDonagh or Brady Skjei.” (Pierre McGuire on TSN)

Maybe Skjei, nobody else.

They also have a high price on him.

Just being real! Look across the river, Awaz, and I'll tell you about having a stable goalie...

Awaz: "How's it going to be Eloco, we gonna get a goalie?"
Eloco: "yeah, Awaz, we're finally gonna get a goalie."
Awaz: "When we gonna do it?"
Eloco: "Gonna do it soon. He's gonna have a good glove hand and...

I actually believe this one...I think a certain owner probably doesn't like all this talk of rebuild, and trading Kesler would basically be accepting that going forward.

@DarrenDreger:

Told Ottawa is among the teams interested in Hemsky. Good look at his upside last night. Best on the ice for the Oilers #TSN #bardown.com

@NYP_Brooksie:
Not quite stepping out on limb here but told it could go either way with Callahan. Tampa asking for young guys with Callahan for StLouis.

I think the Canucks are trying to re-tool rather than rebuild (I mean, the Sedins are under contract for four more years, they are going to be as tough to move as Luongo) and quite frankly, I don't think the Pens have what the Canucks are looking for (which is likely a top-end prospect that plays center).

I swear I've seen just about every player in the NHL being mentioned and hardly any activity.

Vanek and Moulson need to be traded, then the floodgates will open.

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

9:26AM: As of right now the price on St. Louis is too high for the Rangers and a deal is “unlikely” unless the price comes down. [ame="http://twitter.com/SportsnetSpec/status/441218058783555584"](Mark Spector) [/ame]
