slow news day, and no big surprise but all the major NHL insiders are now reporting it:
Chris Nichols @NicholsOnHockey
LeBrun: I do think, from my info, other teams have phoned #Flames to see if they'd move a Wideman or a Russell. Those are names out there.
Chris Nichols @NicholsOnHockey
LeBrun: Yes, he's talked to teams. Yes, he's interested in making a trade. But he's not going to do one for the sake of it. #Flames
McKenzie, Dreger and Friedman have said very similar

McKenzie claims Wideman is the most likely tradebait and the Flames would prefer not to move Russell and re-sign him.
Claims a lot of teams have interest in Russell.
