According to a source who is among those attending the BOG this Week, At least one owner has told his GM and team people to give "whatever they need to" to get the Penguins #2 Center......

The source told me that the deal would consist of one top three winger one top six forward and two #1 picks....

UPDATED: The source just gave me some clues to follow up on. I believe the team to be an eastern team...which does make this more complicated to say the least.

I am also told the owner cut short a family vacation to discuss this, so that is another big-time clue that I can follow

Also Blake Wheeler has signed on with the Bruins...

more if I get it....

Patrick Marleau- Possibility of getting moved: 30%...Teams interested Ottawa, Florida, Buffalo, Boston, NJ, and Columbus

Ray Emery-Possibility of getting moved 60%...Teams interested inlude...Washington, Chicago, LA, and Carolina.

Olli Jokinen- Possibiltiy of getting moved 25% (but on the rise) Teams interested: Calgary, Edmonton, Vancouver, Columbus, and Toronto. Yes folks Toronto. One source said to me: "Remember Fletch made his mark on a BIG deal with Calgary...A ton of players involved...Gilmour being the center piece..Well Olli could be that Gilmour."

Hossa's Rights-Possibility of getting moved 70%...teams looking at this, Montreal, NY Rangers, and Boston.

The Senators are discussing a move with the Kings to get the #2 spot. The Kings would essentially get the first three rounds of picks from Ottawa to go with the copious amount of picks they already have. They may turn and try to give them all to Tampa to get the#1...It doesn't appear that Tampa will move that pick at all.

The Hockeybuzzcast will be live at 4pm today, The Rumour Cast will return tomorrow. I honestly don't see a way I can do it today with all the calls to make. The Monday before the draft and it's insane!

stay tuned......
