The impasse between Ritchie and the Ducks looks like it is beginning to thaw
Not done. Real possibility that it might be done this week assuming no further hiccups
Expected to be a 3 year deal
Cap could force Nylander or Kapanen trade.
If Kapanen gets 50 points he could get a $5 mil plus per deal
It is important for Nylander to sign a contract that he can live with not only in Toronto but on another team.
Kapenen's emergence has strengthened Nylander's belief he might just be trade bait
Dubas does not want to trade Nylander, but as they get closer to the Dec 1 deadline, Leafs need to make a decision
Teams keeping track of Nylander.
Carolina is the team to keep an eye on. LeBrun says Leafs are probably interested in Pesce
Bruins doing a backburner search for a veteran forward. preferably a center.
They are dangling one of their young guys like potentially Anders Bjork and Danton Heinen.
Not saying those players are being shopped, but maybe a team with a veteran forward is looking to replace him with a younger cheaper option.
Agent Brisson and GM Dorion had a meeting about Duchene's future.
Lines of communication open but nothing more than that at this point
