Eklund: AM Rumors. Iginla, Flame Like Laich(e3), Jokinen to Habs/Yotes, Flyers D.

FIRST

Hey Ek,

Any Leaf rumors this morning ?

Any draft discussions that you can share ?

I think your talking about the SJ Sharks regarding a major blow up ?

Oli was useless in PHX the first time

The Coyotes aren't Calgary where they get the band back together when it didn't even work the first time around

Is Tim Thomas on the move?

One of them, to give extra toughness and grit, could be Gill.

I never thought I'd see those words and that name in the same sentence.

Laich for Iginla doesn't sound like a fair swap to me.

.... forget about jokinen on the yotes before?

Reading a little too literal are we?

If they trade Iggy they may as well trade Kipper...

Hey Ek, have you heard the rumours of John Davidson coming to Calgary? Ken King would cover the business side of things with JD in charge of hockey opps?

Calgary will blow it all up.

Thornton (2 years left on contract) for Mac, Franson and Connolly...similar to his orig trade when he was better (Sturm, Stuart, W Primeau)....

Lupul Thornton Kessel

NO NASH!!

3 scrubs for Thornton?

I hope the Flyers are not looking at Gill. We don't need anymore old, slow d-men. Why not give him 5 years to smooth his cap hit so we can keep him on the books??? Rather have Murray or stand pat.

Calgary will blow it all up.

Calgary fan or not, you have to admit that they're aging, and it should be time for a proper rebuild. You've got some valuable assets that will speed up the process. Iginla, Kipper, JayBo, Regehr, etc, all will get good returns to start the rebuilding process

* I am currently talking to sources with another Western Conference team who looks to be readying themselves for their most aggressive summer to date. More on the details and the team in my next blog, but let's just say "If you aren't going to fire the GM or Coach you have to fire the players. "


is he talking about Van maybe??? Could be interesting to see if they look to trade some big names (other then Lou). Maybe Kesler, Burrows, Beiksa, or maybe the unthinkable the Sidens?

This. Except for Regehr plays for Buffalo...

So what do you think we'll get for Regehr?

I guess Dadidson has an out clause with the change of ownership. Let King go run(screw up) the Stampeders & work on the new building.

Now that would be sweet, Davidson & his wife have a lot of family ties in Calgary. Whipper:
A lot of signs pointing to Iggy moving on buddy & I agree, may as well trade Kipper too. New jingle Skiddin for Mackinnon.

Great trade. More size up front and another leader in the dressing room. Kessel would surpass this years numbers easily with Jumbo Joe up the middle

Not Vancouver IMO. I have learned from Ek that he likes to leave clues. Look at the photo he used with his blog. Not one word re Chicago in the blog, yet he has a Chicago ice girl as his photo in the actual blog. Look to Chicago as being the team he didn't name (e4).
