Sources all agree on one thing...Guerin is likely moved in the morning to a contender in the east...

Hockey Night in Canada is reporting that Bill Guerin is heading to Washington and I don't blame them.....until about 20 minutes ago I had that as an e4...because people on the inside are definitely saying that to be the case...

However, our own Andy Strickland has eliminated Washington, NJ, and Boston. I eliminated Philadelphia from the mix. When it comes to ex-Blues like Guerin, Weight and Pronger I would be very careful not to bet against Strickland.

and now sources are telling me that the team may indeed be the Montreal Canadiens and that the reason it won't be announced until tomorrow is that the team was playing tonight as well...

However, my source also cautions here that there are factors that need to fall into place, adding that the Canadiens have at least three deals available to them, and two of them are in play here.

One of them may be the Habs moving a top six forward to Calgary in conjunction with the acquisition of Guerin...

What really needs to be noted here is that Guerin is one hell of a good soldier for allowing the Islanders to make this move. Billy is very comfortable where he is and I imagine will sign back in NY. Isles fans take note of your captain making the ultimate Captain move here.
