Crazy day today as I have been chasing a trade all afternoon...
I will have a major update right around dinner time on a big trade rumor I am tracking this afternoon between one Canadian team out West, and a team in the Southeast Division.. (I could tell you who is involved but I would have to kill you:) In all seriousness I will have an update for you on this one...just was told to keep it hush until this evening..
*I am hearing more and more info that the Habs are closing their interests in on Phillips and the Rangers on McCabe...however San Jose and Chicago are still sniffing around in those waters..
*The Hawks are playing better of late, and there are people out there who do believe they are "toying with the idea" of a major defenseman swap.
*The Blues meanwhile are getting some interest in Barrett Jackman, which is kind of surprising, but he could add some depth to the right team. There are some who say a deal could go down with Jackman tonight...so far I don't believe this to be the case.
*The Flyers are also talking to a few teams about picking up a depth defender. Foote has been mentioned.
*I loved the Pegula press conference. Sabres fans are finally in GREAT hands. You all must be fired up.
more to come...
