Rumor Roundup from Dreger and LeBrun

  • Darren Dreger of TSN: There’s a good chance that Sergei Gonchar and the Penguins won’t reach a deal by July 1st, and the Pens could look at trading his rights. Gonchar could get upwards of $6 million on the open market. Firm offers for Tomas Kaberle could start coming in on Wednesday or Thursday, but the Maple Leafs may wait until later in the summer. The Chicago Blackhawks may not be interested in trading Patrick Sharp; they’re getting interest for Andrew Ladd, Kris Versteeg, and Dustin Byfuglien. Panthers GM Dale Tallon is getting some interest in players other than Nathan Horton and Stephen Weiss.
  • Pierre LeBrun of ESPN: The Oilers are still saying they are undecided as to who they will take with the 1st overall pick in the NHL draft. GM Tambellini told ESPN they’ll wait until Friday morning to make a final decision (I don’t believe that one bit, they’ve had months to decided between 2 players). The Bruins will have to decided if they want to send an extra piece to Edmonton to see if they can get the player they want. The Predators will be looking to add some scoring, either through trade or free agents (not sure the free agent route will turn up much scoring help), but they won’t be looking at Jason Spezza. There is very good chance Nathan Horton will be dealt before the start on the draft. Since last Thursday’s trade that Jaroslav Halak to the Blues, the Bruins have been receiving calls about Tim Thomas.
  • Pierre LeBrun of ESPN: The Panthers will listen to any offers that come their way. They want to remain a competitive team, but also collect extra draft picks. They will likely keep Tomas Vokoun to help stay competitive. Action on Tomas Kaberle is picking up. “We have received several offers we have had to discuss, and expect another today,” Leafs GM Brian Burke told ESPN.com on Monday morning. “Nothing we have received to date meets our requirements.” The Maple Leafs need a legitimate top-6 forward in return. Lou Lamoriello continues to talk with Paul Martin and Ilya Kovalchuk. If Kovalchuk hits the open market, he’ll still the Devils in mind.
