Listening to TSN sounds like you can get a bottom 6 RW like Chiasson or Smith-Pelly for relatively cheap

Isles are looking, but not interested in trading high picks or prospects for rentals. Parenteau seems more of a long-shot at this stage.

So early on Treliving isn't too busy, just wrapped an interview on Sportsnet and about to go on to TSN.

Went from the hardest working GM to the media seeker pretty quickly...

Wouldn't mind DSP if it was cheap. Depends on their definition of cheap though.

Especially with Theodore and Montour both playing amazing in the AHL and needing room in the NHL sooner than later.

I'd rather try for Chiasson instead.

I like both players for different reasons, Chiasson has some offensive potential still even if he has sucked for Ottawa. Might rebound elsewhere.

I wouldn't give more than a 5th for either.

News Update

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Bruins are a major player today. Working on Hamhuis/Russell...considering Eriksson trade options. Lots of discussions in Boston.

Burke on TSN:

lots of interest on Russell
number of teams interested in Russell and the quality of offers, it is likely we move him
Would be surprised if something didn't happen with Russell today

wouldn't be surprised if another trade besides Russell, maybe something small
all pending Flames UFAs are getting interest

goaltending more likely to be addressed in the offseason rather than today


side note: unless I missed it, Treliving was supposed to be on TSN but Burke took the interview instead

Burke is saying they're getting interest in almost all UFA's. They should say yes to any offer on all of them.

Didn't they say they had a trade to announce???

I'm sensing this could be a pretty big let-down day. The teams that are threats have loaded up already, with the exception of Washington. Market is softening even for the guys that were considered to have highest value.

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Western conference team says the ask from Boston for Eriksson is a top player and prospect. Team is balking at the price...for now.

The trade was interviewing Burke instead of Treliving. I hope that means Brad is too busy working the phones.


Besides Russell, the only other pending UFAs are Hiller, Jones, and Nakladal (plus the injured Grant and Ramo). Nak is the only one I'd want to keep, but if the offer is good enough, you make that move.

Hope to see Russell and Jones moved today.

If they can get anything for Hiller, that'd be great too. Highly unlikely though.

If they manage to trade Wideman or Stajan (or both) that would be fantastic.
