All indications are that the Vancouver Canucks are getting the closest right now to landing Jay Bouwmeester. VERY close. I will tell you when it happens...(one source put it at 90% done)

The Blues are once again very seriously considering making a run at Pronger. Could happen this weekend.

The Islanders may have a serious surprise in store for their fans tomorrow night. One source in Montreal has told me that the NHL will get whoever (Tavares) is picked #1 out of Montreal as quickly as possible so that he can jump on a private jet and fly to the Island where he will be introduced to the 15,000 plus!

Also, there are some players on the Canadiens who are hearing that some of their teammates are being prepared for the possibility of being moved to Tampa.


more to come...

The "Chance They Could Be Traded" Chart...

This is a little bit different than the RUMOR CHART. Essentially, I will keep track of this for the next week or so. Where the RUMOR CHART tells you "where" they could be traded, this will tell you if I feel they will be traded and how that is trending...

Chance They Could Be Traded

Bouwmeester: 100% (Up 5%)
Lecavalier: 85% (Down 10%)
Heatley: 80% (Down 10%)
Kessel: 40% (even)

Quick hits will come real time today and through the weekend...as I get them..so expect several short blogs...

*QUICK HIT RUMORS AS UPDATED ON THE RUMOR CHART:

*Everywhere I turn this morning I am hearing that The Rangers are working on a "huge deal."

*Heatley to Boston is now "much more likely due to a deal that the Bruins have on the Table." I believe the deal would send Kessel to Anaheim or Minnesota. Heatley would love to play for Chiarelli again.

*This really feels like the day we will see Bouwmeester dealt. A source told me that late last night all possibilities of Bouwmeester returning to Florida "are no more."

*Reggie Lemelin is out as Flyers Goalie coach. replaced by Jeff Reese. I really liked Reggie. Quality person.
