are the major hangup in completing a potential transaction between last years 1-2 finishers in the Howe conference. Assinine as it may sound to hear that the Oilers would make two trades in a year let alone a week, it is believed that the source is credible. After Mondays game with the Kings it was believed that the Oilers were seeking an anti-Hatcher weapon.
