I am posting this from a blackberry. Just wanted to get this up quickly. I have this from two sources. Sens are very close to signing UFA Jason Williams. Williams spent last season in Chicago. If this is the case and the Sens can get him cheaper than Antoine Vermette, I wonder if Vermette will be a Sen by the end of the summer. It sure would be nice to have both of them as top six fowards though.

***Updated at 3:06pm, he has signed but I am also told Sens are closing to trading Chris Neil. This would free up cap space and Neil is a UFA in a year. Plus with Ruutu and Bass in the fold, Sens are fine in the muscle department. With Yablonski in Binghamton signed, he could be called up if need be.***

***Updated at 3:21pm, Predators and Blackhawks are after Neil, with Murray looking for a defensemen in return.***
