- The Blackhawks have looked for available goalies around the league, but feel that it wouldn’t be an upgrade. They also don’t have a lot of cap room for this year, after the acquistion of Kim Johnsson.
- The Islanders are shopping Martin Biron, Dwayne Roloson and Andy Sutton. Roloson is 40 years old and will make $3 milllion next season ($2.5 million cap hit).
- Predators GM, David Poile, will meet with all his UFA’s during the Olympic break. If they are unable to re-sign Dan Hamhuis, they might look at trading him, despite being in a potential playoff spot.
- Dennis Seidenberg and Jordan Leopold are as good as gone from the Florida Panthers.
- The Capitals may be considering adding a goalie. GM McPhee has looked around, but their options may be limited as some teams aren’t in the selling mood. Marty Turco, Martin Biron and Jaroslav Halak could be options.
- The Rangers could be looking to do something, with Brandon Dubinsky’s name in the middle of it.
- The Bruins wouldn’t ask Tim Thomas to waive his no-movement clause until he has something in place. They’ve talked to 3 teams about Thomas.
- The Blue Jackets are shopping Raffi Torres, Jan Hejda and Milan Jurcina.
- Florida may be shopping Tomas Vokoun and his no-trade clause. Would he waive it to go to Philly?
- Florida could move Stephen Weiss to the Maple Leafs.
- Ray Whitney demanded a 2 year, $7 million contract extension from the LA Kings.
- The Oilers are trying to move Shawn Horcoff, Robert Nilsson, Sheldon Souray, Steve Staios, and Tom Gilbert.
