Whatever happens, I look forward to splitting hairs with all you hockey obsessed peple in the next two days.

Vancouver - Lindholm stuff is real
Jersey - Tofolli sounds like he may be on the block
Philly - sounds like they may be one of the busiest players today in signing and trades

If Philly is making these kind of moves, Markstrom might be a good acquisition for them

[Vinny01]

Henrique to the Oilers sounds like it is happening per Lebrun

[MrMike]

New Jersey : Has some decisions to make , 8 points out 1 game at hand, do the math. plus jump over 3 other teams. If they can find a contract extension with Tofolli they will keep him. Killorn might be the comparable for Toff. They will trade if they feel they cant make a deal

Hanifin : The Flames and Tampa have been working on it for quite some time but no confirmation. thinks extension to be done. inching together on a deal. trying to find common ground. Vegas interested - took a look,
until Anything falls apart, its Tampa's deal

Damn I always liked henrique. Now he's forever unclean.

Gotta beef up that forward group so you can lose 6-5 instead of 5-4.

Wouldn't surprise me if Fitz didn't make the deal to save face, as he should have done it weeks ago and still would have ended up paying the price that wss asked for in the beginning.

[MrMike]

Buffalo - Eric Johnson : Prepared to move some UFA's, Okposo and such
Willing to consider bigger things, pretty vague statements, such is Buffalo.
Guys like Middlestat, might be hard to move him from the "In Core"

Eric Johnson being held out tonight

I don't know. I saw Blasty at the Wranglers game on Sunday. I think he's done all he can at that level and we need to make space for him.

[memphusk]

Holtz, first and Toffoli for Markstrom. Trade Toffoli.

There was a team early on this year in Noah Hanifin, wasn't the time to pull the trigger.

November or December, but can't nail down the team involved.

Edmonton trade yup

And they're about to listen to someone vomit for the final half hour of the Marek show

I know this is in relation to the suggestion the Flames wanted Todd Harvey but received Iginla from the Stars for Nieuwy, and found this article the other day which kind of dispels that rumour.

It’s actually a great read in my opinion.

Edit: It’s not paywalled on my phone, so here are a couple of interesting tidbits:

As in any trade discussions, many options were brought up, including Todd Harvey, who had been the Stars’ first-round draft choice, ninth overall, two years earlier.

One of the great what-if’s for Stars fans is the belief that they could have traded Harvey instead of Iginla in the deal. Those there at the time disagree with that ever being a possibility.

Bob is a smart guy. If he could have kept Iginla, he would have,” Jackson said. “Harvey was negotiated and talked about, for sure. But when you are talking about getting a player like Joe, you have to give something pretty good to complete that deal.”

“When Al Coates says, ‘You better start talking about Jarome Iginla,’ well, now you start talking about other players — ‘Would this player and this player satisfy you?'” said Button, chuckling. “Al would get back to you, ‘Yeah, when we’re talking about a player like Nieuwendyk, our minds are pretty made up on a player like Jarome Iginla.’ So then you rewind.

“But Al and the Calgary Flames had a solid bead on Jarome Iginla. Try as we might to try to get them off of Jarome Iginla in many different ways … he knew how interested we were in Joe.”

Is there anyone unexpected we could pitch to Colorado/ Vegas to make it even harder on the oilers?

Kuzmenko? Mangiapane?

Aww I guess I really should subscribe to the athletic, any chance you can give me a quit paraphrase because that sounds really interesting? Thanks!

Deal kuzmenko to Vegas.
