More tweets have went out since the initial ones. Things could get interesting...

BallHock @BallHock
Brian Burke in #Philadelphia right now. Currently in a private one-on-one with Paul Holmgren #Leafs #Flyers

Pro_Puck_Talk @Pro_Puck_Talk
Something is stirring up in philly. #Flyers #Leafs. Schenn may be joining his brother in the city of brotherly love

Pro_Puck_Talk @Pro_Puck_Talk
Just received confirmation that Burke has recently contacted Holmgren about a trade

Pro_Puck_Talk @Pro_Puck_Talk
@BallHock I'm hearing this as well. #Flyers love Schenn

BallHock @BallHock
@Pro_Puck_Talk Toronto is very very close with Philly. If Holmgren declines, look to Columbus

I can't vouch for their credibility but it at least appears the meeting is actually occurring at the moment.

FLYERS ROSTER UPDATE: Flyers have loaned Tom Sestito, Ben Holmstrom and Harry Zolnierczyk to their AHL affiliate, the Adirondack Phantoms today.


Is this just for the All Star break or do they expect Jagr, JVR, and Briere to be ready shortly?

I don't believe "loaned" is the correct term there. It's probably being done to save some pennies off the cap. The AHL is also on an All Star break so these guys won't be playing up or down.

What's the best dish you make?
- bradleyc4

I know it sounds funny, but I've had people ask to come over and get lessons making meatloaf. So I suspect it is that. My grandmother was a professional cook (women weren't called chefs then) and taught me to make good old-fashioned farm food. Chicken and noodles with noodles from scratch. And my old asst taught me the tricks of good Indian food. There's a really good lamb curry that's mild but complex that gets good reviews.

I don't ccok so much any more. Mostly eat my main meal at lunch so cook dinner only for Sundays.

harsh for the Sharks not to have told Nitty he was on waivers - found out via media. Good luck to him elsewhere.

only thing more popular than current backup goalie? the backup goalie from 4 years ago.

A quote I saw on Twitter showed he had a very common sense view of what was going on though. Respect that.

I thought Sestito had to go through recall waivers though. #amiwrong

It wouldnt be recall waivers since he would be going back down, but I dont know if he would be exempt if it was just a loan, or if he was sent down after a brief recall, but regardless its interesting...

If they were trying to just save pennies on the cap, then they could have also sent Schenn, Bourdon, and Rinaldo down... Something is going on.

I'm sure for the ASG. I think Jagr will benefit from the week, but I'm sure they don't know about JVR and Briere. They often send rookies down for the break to keep them rolling.

Joining Jason Farris at Rotman's tonight to discuss his book Behind the Moves. A well researched book! The book’s foreword is brilliant!


unless this is just a cover up for some mega deal that is going to go down!

Is there a "no trade" zone during the AS break, like Christmas? If so, I could see where teams might want to get a deal done now and give the players some time to move to their new teams.

Nah, you can look it up yourself.

Also, I heard the talk between the Flyers and LA (which Eklund talked about) has to do with the future considerations that LA sent to Philly for Legein.
