The Trade Deadline Rumor Chart is now live. Now with 41 players. So far today I have updated Blake, Semin, Roy, Kostitsyn, Carter, Raymond, and Perry, and Jack Johnson...

Start here......

I just spoke to a guy I have been a big fan of for years and he told me "The Trade Deadline is Back this year!" This is great news for fans like us who live for, and love discussing the possibilities of it all..Here are a few to start you off today.

*The Hawks, a team with cap space to use, are interested in Kings d-man Jack Johnson... It is curious to me if there is a fit there for LA however. The Kings want a top 6 forward and a d replacement (not of jj's caliber of course). One source told me he expected there to be "another team involved and I wouldn't e surprised if it was a three-way deadline deal...the kind we have seen the Kings get involved with before."

*Corey Perry to Vancouver rumors are once again surfacing, although I have been told the Ducks are strongly considering getting out of the sell market..Perry, if available, would of course be sought after by every NHL team...

*Semin is a player the Kings are targeting in a big way, however I would still lean towards Detroit (e3) were I asked where Semin will sign.

*The Calgary Flames look to be the most likely team to make a play for Jeff Carter...

*I continue to hear Rick Nash's name mentioned/connected with the Maple Leafs..I have hard time imagining the Jackets would trade both Carter and Nash, but I don't doubt they would trade either for the right deal.

*Mason Raymond rumors are EVERYWHERE today. I have heard four teams Detroit (e1), Toronto (e2), Columbus (e1), and Nashville (e2)

more to come...
