The Oilers have been heavily scouting Hatcher and look to be seriously considering him. I know many of you may have issues with this, but this is coming from several VERY strong sources. Hatcher gets a bad rap for being slow. Bottom line on Hatcher is has been 100% better this year than his first year in the new NHL. I talked to Hitchcock about Hatcher earlier in the year and Hitch said something that was very true. "Hatcher is a force when a team has the lead. He can still shut down, kill penalties, and make players pay."

Problem is: In Philly, Hatcher has played on a team that rarely gets leads to shutdown.

I Just talked to a source and updated the Chart..

New rumors at this hour:

The Kings and the Wild are now the two teams interested in Petr Prucha since Nagy is heading to Dallas.

For all you Canucks fans, the Canucks are finally leading on my chart for a player...Marco Sturm...

And everyone agrees that Rob Blake is likely to stay in LA and mentor the mighty Johnson, however the newest team considering making a pitch is the other Metropolis in the US. There is word that the NY Rangers (e1) are considering this possibility.

Also, a lot of players, agents, and various team affiliated people are asking how they can get access to the chart. (After I email them back and ask them, "You won't pay twenty bucks and you make how much?:)"

In all seriousness, my theory is that if you or someone you represent are personally on the chart you should be entitled to see it. There is a code I have been giving to industry people and players. Email me and I will give you the information. Agents, team reps, and players, etc. can email [email protected] and I will set you up. Please include a contact number or someone I may contact to verify you for obvious reasons.
