Presumably the idea would be to shed cap...it's hard to think of too many plausible guys that would be seen as a financial concern...Johansen? Tarasenko? Voracek? OEL? Schmaltz?

If owners are vetoing trades based on hockey criteria as opposed to $ considerations, then it’s a horribly broken situation.
I really can’t imagine it.
