So what's this about the Penguins looking at Annaheim and Vancouver as team they'd trade Letang to? Apparently their intrigued by our prospects. Per Rossi.

I wouldn't read much into it.

It would take a significant roster player, as well, both to clear cap, and also because of the fact that some teams could offer their top two prospects and it would probably be a more attractive offer than the Canucks' top 10...

Chompsey asked me to throw this out as he is on vacation

Throw this out there.....

Seattle is looking for a goalie and a familiar face to sell in the market upon relocation. It is rumored that they would trade for Luongo and some picks for a salary a second tier prospect......

"for a salary a second tier prospect......."

I've read that 10 times and I still can't figure out WTF it means.

lol. Either we take salary back from Luongos contract or we take on a crap contract, I think.

That guy wants to be paid in gold bricks. Where do we get the money for him... unless they want Lu, perhaps?

I dunno. Edler plus Jensen/gaunce/1st? Luongo and Ballard off the books. Just spit balling. Maybe he's asking more from the Penguins because he isn;t happy with them, which is rumored.

Even $7m a year is too much. Can't be done. IMO, Letang isn't a game breaker. He's a guy that plays well with game breakers.

Please add regular season to your location. Don't want anyone thinking you won the real deal playoff pool.

Luongo, Booth, Ballard and the prospect they covet for Letang, Kunitz and Fleurie

Schneider for 1st overall

Kesler for 3rd overall

Bieksa for rights to Bozak and 1st

Gillis should call Jim Basillie. Lock up Luo for the Hamilton team

Is Tanev not re-signed yet because he is trade bait?

that situation is quite confusing. Possibly the best prospect in our system and hes nowhere to be seen. And I believe hearing a few days ago that the two camps having even talked........

Didn't Esplen do a piece where he didn't even have Luongo going to Socchi? I think he rescinded shortly after that though...Luongo is going to be the Brodeur of this Olympics. Play until you falter and then the up and comer plays. Question is who is the up and comer?
- docmorgan


It'll depend on the start to the season, but probably Price, Crawford or Smith.

Tanev was originally going to represent himself and last week(?) ended up hiring a local guy to be his agent. Talks are in process, expect he will get signed.

They have talked but Tanev just picked up an agent to help negotiations. Apparently being your own agent isn't such a good idea.
