I confirm Andy's rumour involving San Jose and Toronto. There is little doubt that teams are ramping it up tonight. Little doubt at all...

some sources are telling me that they were hearing there was a possibility that Jokinen would not play against the NY Rangers tonight. He is playing.

The Canadiens are confirmed a player for Brad Richards.

Making the strongest late surge for Sundin is Detroit, who is also in a battle with Nashville for Vaclav Prospal

I have also heard more and more involving Ryder and the Dallas Stars.

Also I have heard that the Canucks are showing interest in Phil Kessel.

I am working on a blog update of all 30 teams, but news keeps coming in. I will hold a late night Rumour Live Podcast arounf 11 pm tonight stay tuned for the exact times.

I also hear that Forsberg is not thrilled with his progress at this point and is growing very close to just throwing in the towel.

The Rangers are interested heavily in Boyle and McCabe.

I also heard that a western conference team made a pitch for both Martin St. Louis and Brad Richards.

The Flyers are considering Ryan Suter and still waiting on Forsberg. Carter will NOT be dealt I am told.

The Oilers are also in on the Hossa sweeps as well as Richards. There is also a rumour ivolving a "serious young star" on the Oilers for Olli Jokinen.

more as the night goes
