Was just going to point out that both had NMC. Will either of them waive is the question

NMC really have never stopped a player from being moved just limited where they are moved too. If the team wants you out its best to waive it and move on, but you can say I don't want to go there I want these teams and only these teams.

So basically any other team in the NHL other than Florida.

Marleau and Thornton are here to stay.

They JUST signed contracts with the Sharks, with NMC.

The only change we'll see will be Boyle and Havlat gone.

And here I thought the Panthers would be in this.

I could see trading Joe but not Paddy...he's a player, Joe's a choker!!

I'm sure Patty would be real excited to waive his NMC for Panthers or Islanders....2 Stanley cup contenders

Joe should go to Edmonton or Florida. A couple teams that would be psyched to make the playoffs. Thornton will get you there for sure. Cant promise much more than that

will be a compliance buyout.... easy decision for Sharks

Not sure what Thornton has to offer that Z at Datsyuk don't. 3 top line centers is nice unless they are all in their mid 30s and taking minutes away from our budding young players.

I also don't think Thornton would help the Wings get over any particular hump besides a 24th straight trip to the post season, especially considering what would have to be given up to land him. Pass

Both have NMC and both JUST signed their extensions to cap friendly deals so that they could build the team around their deals. There is no way either of them get traded. That's exactly why they were both given full NMC.
