- Darren Dreger: Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli said that he was told at noon yesterday that they had a deal for Jarome Iginla. It is now clear that Iginla must have directed the Flames towards the Penguins. Boston Bruins: Chiarelli: “we brought up Torey, scratched Koko and Bart – relied on the fact that we had the deal”
- Joe Haggerty: Iginla was calling the shots and wanted to end up in Pittsburgh. Flames took the lesser offer.
- Darren Dreger: Some think that Iginla’s decision to play for the Penguins was made before last night.
- Elliotte Friedman: Flames GM Jay Feaster is off to Toronto to make pitch for Danny DeKeyser.
- Patrick Caisse: Danny DeKeyser’s agent, Don Meehan, told Caisse that he’ll likely have a decision today, tomorrow at the latest.
- The Fourth Period: Multiple sources are saying that the Lightning are getting calls on Martin St. Louis. He has two years left at a $5.625 million salary cap hit. He has a no-movement clause. The Bruins, Red Wings and Rangers are believed to have shown interest. The Lightning could also be getting calls on Ryan Malone.
- Andy Strickland: Sabres Ryan Miller handed in a list of 8 teams he won’t accept a trade too before the season started.
- Andy Strickland: Strickland would be surprised if the Blues moved any roster players at the deadline. Draft picks and prospects most likely.
