Steve Eminger (D)
|
Tampa Bay |
Noah Welch (D) + 3rd Rnd Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
|
One defender for another… We’ll see if Eminger gets to play a bit more than Welch. Is probably a good trade if the coach has more confidence in Steve – than obviously was the case with perennial bench warmer Noah. Makes you wonder where he’ll fit in though? We already have six good defenders… |

Edmonton |
Ales Kotalik (F)
|
Buffalo |
2nd Rnd Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Edmonton pulled off a couple of late deals and must be happy in getting two potentially great players in Kotalik and Sullivan. |

Well! There you go… Carolina deal O’Sullivan immediately for Cole… Strange doesn’t begin to describe this deal… |

Carolina |
Patrick O’Sullivan (F) + 2nd Rnd Pick |
Los Angeles |
Justin Williams |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Carolina get their first native (born in North Carolina) Carolinian on the roster. He could be a steal, hasn’t quite worked out in LA, but could be a revelation in Raleigh. |

San Jose |
Travis Moen (F) and Kent Huskins (D)
|
Anaheim |
Nick Bonnino (F) and Tim Pielmeier (G) + Conditional Draft Pick |
|---|---|---|---|

This may explain the strange McLaren trade. With Moen San Jose get a proven champion that can help them over the edge in that quest for the Cup. |

Samuel Påhlsson (F)
|
Anaheim |
James Wisniewsky (D) + Undisclosed Pick or Prospect |
|---|---|---|---|
|
I think Chicago made a steal here! Påhlsson may have an expiring contract, but he’s avery good player that can add grit, experience and determination to the Hawks in the playoffs. |

Dominic Moore (F)
|
Toronto |
2nd Rnd Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
|
Toronto couldn’t wait to get rid of Dominic and Buffalo needed some help. So, it is a trade that makes sense, but will it make the Sabres much better? |

Dmitri Kalinin (D), Nigel Dawes (F) and Petr Prucha (F) |

Wow! This is a huge deal for the Rangers. They get a great defender but give up an awful lot! All three are good players and this could be a good deal for both sides. |

Matthew Lombardi (D) + 1st Rnd Pick and Brandon Prust |

Pascal Leclaire (G) and 2nd Rnd Pick |

Sounds like a win-win deal. Ottawa need a new goalie and picks, while Columbus have long been searching for a top 6 forward. Had hoped however, that Florida would try and sign Vermette… |

Rumor
|
|---|---|
| Jay Bouwmeester |
Vancouver pressed hard last night, according to TFP, trying to sign Bo. Talks continue today…. ….as does the Panther talks with Philadelphia TFP now reports that Jay is likely to be traded…. TSN says Phoenix are waiting for Florida to decide on Bo before trading Derek Morris. That would make it Philadelphia that has given the Cats a deal to ponder? Talks are ongoing according to reports! TSN are saying that Vancouver would be in the frontline for Bo and D Bieksa would be part of any deal. TFP think the Flyers have given up on Bo and are focusing on Morris. Looks like Bo will stay! Deadline has passed, but not all deals have been finalized and announced yet. |
| Kari Lehtonen and Marty Reasoner | Atlanta’s GM Don Waddel is reportedly getting calls for Kari and Marty. The latter is expected to be moved soon. |
| Martin St. Louis | It seems like the NY Rangers have inquired about St. Louis… |
| Derek Morris | The Flyers are trying hard to sign either Morris or Bo, according to TFP. Montreal are also trying to get Morris. NY Rangers now interested too…. |
| Mark Recchi | According to TFP, NY Rangers may be interested in the Lightning player. Either way he’s expected to be dealt today. |
| Olli Jokinen | Talks about Olli Jokinen moving from Phoenix to Calgary are heating up according to TSN. The Flames may be trying to acquire the former Panther and re-unite him with coach Mike Keenan. |
| Filip Kuba and Chris Neil | Looks like they may get new contracts signed today with Ottawa after all. That would take two of the more talked about potential trades off the market. Filip Kuba signed to 3-year deal. Neil doesn’t look like he’ll sign; a trade may be in the pipeline. The Panthers were rumored to have acquired Neil, but now the deal is reportedly not done yet. |
| Tim Connolly | Is expected to stay with the Sabres and sign a new contract today. Tim Conolly signed to 2-year $ 9 million contract. |
| Pascal Leclaire | The Blue Jackets goalie is expected to be dealt today, despite being injured. |
| Bill Guerin | Is expected to be dealt from the NY Islanders today. |
| Antoine Vermette | Chicago and Columbus are interested according to some reports. |
I think the big news for Florida is what didn’t happen- Washington didn’t upgrade its goalie situation. Washington is beatable with Theodore in goal and right now Florida is setup for a first round showdown with Washington. Not counting empty netters, Florida is +4 in goals in the 4 games they split with the Capitals.
Bill
Yes, I agree that this was bad news for the Caps. They would at the very least have needed a decent and experinced back-up goalie. Now they have put all their eggs in Theodore’s proverbial basket and that sure is a gamble! But with Montreal well in sight, I’m still hoping we can grab that fifth spot in the standings and match-up with Philly instead…
