How about Minnesota? They may have soured on Vanek with his play these playoffs and Iginla won't command the term Vanek would want.

I wonder if they are getting close to really contending? Is Backstrom pretty much finished? They do have guys like Granlund, Coyle, Brodin, Neiderreiter, and Haula really coming into their own to add to Parise, Koivu, and Suter. Maybe they're still a piece or two away but it might be enticing enough for Jarome if they can fit him in. Heatley is gone, so that'll help make room.

Just don't see Boston fitting him in with the bonuses carried forward and the guys they have left to sign. Unless they trade a guy like Marchand, which would be for some cap relief/team makeup kind of thing, as he was terrible in the postseason.
