Reports and rumors are rampant today...

My sources are telling me the deals are getting a bit better and that a Kaberle deal could be in the offering..

The latest team to be jumping to the front of the line may be the Anaheim Ducks. Rumors this morning that the Ducks may have a deal on the table. If their deal is the actual, "Deal to beat" that I have been told exists is uncertain.

What does still appear certain is that Kaberle is far more likely to be traded by midnight tomorrow night than he is to remain a Leaf.

Right now, the Ducks, Caps, Bruins, Kings, and Sharks are the leading teams in this hunt. There are other teams as well.

Other hockey insiders have been weighing in on twitter...

EJ Hradek, from ESPN/XM announced yesterday that no team had asked permission to speak to Kaberle about an extension.

Darren Dreger today stated "One team presented an interesting offer. A player and a pick IF Kaberle signs an ext. If Kaberle becomes a ufa, the Leafs send a pick back. The Leafs declined the offer."

Names I am hearing coming back are all over the map, with the most interesting possibility being that of Bobby Ryan. Of course this deal would require much more than Kaberle were it to be the case...I have also heard Joe Thornton's name mentioned...I have been hearing this off and on all summer.

I don't usually do predictions, I simply report rumors, but there are so many rumors surrounding this player that I am just going to note that my gut is saying he will be a King...and Wayne Simmonds will be heading to Toronto. Again, that is just the one scenario I have heard more than most and based on what both teams need I could see it happening.

But like everyone one else in the hockey world, predictions will be changing on the hour as this story continues to evolve and as I hear from new sources I will either update this blog or I will start a new one...

I will continue to update throughout the day and night on this ongoing story...and once it does go down we should see quite a few other moves as well....

So my question to you is...

WHAT DO YOU THINK WILL HAPPEN WITH KABERLE?

cheers.
