Look for Montreal to jump into the Brendan Shanahan sweeps today....He is reportedly asking around 5.2 per, and that is getting tough for Boston given their current position....A day after RJ Umberger filed for Arbitration the Flyers have signed the talented center. I like this move, RJ is a star in the making and may surpass Carter and Richards in points this year...not the boldest of statements, but you heard it here...In goalie news....The Kings pick up of Cloutier could turn out to be a better deal than people expect. I like the move for both teams. Dan may surprise some people...I hope he does, because he is a great guy who needed a change...goalies have been known to go for change. Word on the street fromthree sources, is that IF the wings re-sign Shanahan, look for them to trade for Giguere. Apparently, there is a deal to be made, but it would require a forward from the Wings that depth-wise they can not lose unless Brendan were to return...I will be holding a Chat today at 4pm ET for all season ticket holders...So come on by....
