I would think Gibson's price tag would be fairly significant.

Who would be headed back the other way? Eberle? I can't see the Ducks giving up Gibson without a big return.

If Gibson is moved told it would open door for Khudobin to land in Anaheim #nhlducks

BAH - I'd rather the Oilers stayed focused on Talbot (obviously)!
Gibson is someone I've had my hopes on for the Flames - him or Jones, but since Jones already went to Boston...

You have to think the Oilers would have to give up at least Eberle. Gibson would attract quite a lot of interest from other teams imo.

#ducks are trying to get Anton Khudobin from Carolina. Could be done today. #tvasports
Looks like Ducks will move a goalie

Sharks should be looking at Ramo or Hiller now.

Purely speculative, but have heard Hudler’s name this week RT @HalfordPHT: The teams still huddled around their draft tables are PIT and CGY

Likely nothing. Flames said they were going through their lists and starting to call players to invite to development camp.
And also Treliving was live on Fan 960 at time of tweet.

Treliving just got off the radio too, so they may have been waiting for him to finish up.

Kari Lehtonen seems a likely target. Once Niemi gets wrapped up I can see him being moved real quick.

Doug Wilson says SJ will likely look more in the trade market instead of the UFA market for a goalie. He says more guys are out there.

I'm confused as to why chicago has been so silent.
Somebody mentioned in another thread that they are waiting for free agency to see who loses out. Not a smart strategy to me, but obviously they are far smarter then I.

Toronto #mapleleafs have told at least one team they're willing to retain $2 million of Phil Kessel's salary.

He would sure look good on the first line at $6 million.

And the Leafs would be smart to do so.
Kessel at $8 million is a little iffy, Kessel at $6 million looks much better.
If he can get back to his 30-35 goal form then that isn't that bad at all.
Issue is retaining salary just means that they will want a big return then.
He wasn't great in Toronto last year but he did have 3 good seasons before that and put up great numbers while playing with poor centers, and as a scoring winger that is a pretty big miss.

A 6 million Kessel would be amazing on this team. Push it hard, maybe they eat 3 mill?
Poirier, 1st, Seiloff for Kessel, 2 mill retained. Would look really good with Mony and Johnny.

i'll admit it, i wasn't interested in Kessell.
But if his cap hit was $6,000,000, it really got my attention. Even if it you can get them to keep $2.25 per season and get that # under $6, i'd be willing to give up a lot from our prospect pool.

^ Even at 6 M i think it eats too much cap up. He also does not exactly fit in with the culture here. Big pass.
