on Jay Bouwmeester ...

Hearing the Islanders are now leading the pack for Jay Bo. However Boston could get interesting if the Flames were to take Tim Thomas' contract.

On Tim Thomas...

As an aside, long before the draft Thomas signed away his NTC unconditionally so the Bruins can move him anywhere they can.

On Getzlaf...

Hearing Ottawa and Toronto, but I am not convinced the Ducks aren't keeping Getzlaf but attempting to show Philly they have other options besides Bobby Ryan. The Flyers are currently still far apart from the Ducks asking price..maybe if they fear the Ducks move Getzlaf instead they up their offer..

Luongo...

Not as close as others are speculating per my sources. Also heard a Tampa rumor today that Gillis may be getting so frustrated with the low offers he may be re-considering a deal that would send Lecavalier to Vancouver for Luongo..Yzerman would do this deal I was told.

On the Hawks..

hearing they may be turning from the Luongo sweeps (they were remotely in anyway) and trying to make a trade to bring in Bernier.

On Shea Weber...

One source, well placed, told me 70% Weber never plays another game in Nashville..unless something drastic were to occur.. Only one source, but as I wrote before..I believe the Preds real hope rests in dealing Weber.

On Doan...

There may be another extension for Glendale..was supposed to be the 9th, now might be the 15th.. Doan is currently a domino for Nash, Ryan, and to an extent Semin..

On the Canadiens..

Hearing they are talking to Chicago about "a top 6 forward".
