Ridiculous Trade Rumor!

Hockey Trades NHL Trade Rumors

Trade rumors continue to surround the Chicago Blackhawks and Marian Hossa for the 2011-2012 NHL offseason. Hossa had a good start last season and then suffered a setback from nagging injuries. He came back in time for the playoffs but offensively he accomplished little.

The right winger makes $7.9 million per year and seems to have slowed down and become injury prone at the age of 32. The Blackhawks are looking to shake up their team after their disappointing playoff loss to the Vancouver Canucks.

Hossa is being shopped to the New York Islanders, Nashville Predators, Colorado Avalanche and the Winnipeg Jets.

No solid source or credibility, but I like it. Has anyone else, maybe local to these clubs, heard anything substantial?

I like Hossa, but LOL @ 7.9mil

Well played, sir. Well played.

I'm sure it's pretty clear how the Penguins fans feel.

Haven't heard Hossa to the Islanders at all. If Garth makes a deal it will probably be for a defenseman because he actually said that's what he intends to do.

Those teams mentioned are very...well, off the map for these type of deals. Be very interesting to see it happen though.

the teams mentioned are the just the ones still under the floor, that might possibly need to take on a retarded contract like Hossa's.

Hossa next to Yashin is terrifying for opponents.

Well if the Hawks are willing to trade him for Trent Hunter & Dipietro, I'm all for it.
