This blog is inspired by the band playing in this year's Super Bowl halftime show.

So as there is a week before the Olympic Break and the trade freeze, hockey fans around the world all have the same question: Who's Next? Fans will want to know who the next big player is to be moved but you can guarantee, it won't be someone named O'Reilly.

No one really knows what it's like Behind a GM's Eyes but we try to speculate. This is the time of the year where GMs are Getting in Tune with the other GMs around the league. A time where they try to look for a Bargain that will help their team.

The first questions that fans and GMs must ask themsevles is "Who are you?" If he knows who your team is and what it needs, he Can See for Miles and find the best trade out there. If he doesn't You Better You Bet he won't make a deal for the good of his team. Each GM much figure out who The Real Me is otherwise he'll get hosed at the table.

Now there are some teams out there that should know that The Kids are Alright and he won't need to make a Bargain. However, for some teams there is always a Real Good Looking Boy, such as a Scott Niedermayer, that will help their team get to the playoffs.

Some deals are Pure and Easy but every GM knows that Love Aint for Keeping. Sure It's Hard to make a deal these days with the salary cap but if you can find the right Tommy, you Wont Get Fooled Again.
