Bryan Murray in the market for a "centre ice man".

Backlund to Senators E4?

Wideman likely has negative value with his contract with term. Even with no suspension, he is not movable.

I could see Backlund going today too.

I prefer SN feed to TSN feed. Can't say why.

I believe Wideman is an option for some teams needing defense depth. The Flames could eat up to 50% and that would make him an option for some teams,

He's got one year left, and he's still a 35+ point Dman who can play top 4, and is also one season removed from 50+ points.

He is most definitely moveable, just have to find the right fit.

Like TO for instance. They are paper thin on veteran D, and could easily utilize him next season. Plus, with lots of ice time and powerplay time he could build his value next season and become a very valuable rental at next years deadline that could bring the Leafs more young assets for their rebuild.

That kind of ice time he will struggle to get here because he has to share with many other quality puck moving offensive Dmen.

I don't think that is worth it. If the Flames hold onto Wideman he is likely worth a 2nd next deadline no rentension

Flames have an organizational principle that they won't retain salary.

I will consider this day a massive success if we find a way to ship David Jones out. Even if it's for the very last pick in the draft.

Jones will easily get a 4th/5th, at least. He's a physical, 10-15 goal scorer who'll be a good fit on a playoff team.

No they didn't. Biron said the flames should target him in the off season. He also said we should look at Howard lol.

I've had enough of TSN's leafs love; from talking about their trades to Nylander to their backups now? seriously, there are other teams. Switching to SN, hopefully they're better.

I forgot how few trades there were on Deadline Day.

TRADE COUNT: 1

Not really. Just the opinion of Martin Biron that we may go after him in the off-season. Nothing to do with this deadline.

They've mentioned the baby Leafs. A bit is coming up soon. Not too much said though.
