Senators made Paul a strong offer

Bruce Garrioch: The Senators four-year, $10 million offer is a ‘strong, serious offer” for Nick Paul.

Word is he is looking for a four-year deal in a $3 million per range.

Shawn Simpson: An offer of four years at $2.5 million per season is a more than fair offer.

“For a guy that has struggled with the pressure leading up to the deadline. I sure hope he handles betting on his future a lot a better, should he decide to depart.”

Lightning done

Joe Smith: Tampa Bay Lightning GM Julien BriseBois said that they are finished now and doesn’t expect them to make another trade before the trade deadline.

Blackhawks should be open to moving Kane

Evan Rawal: “If Chicago is trading 23-year-olds for 1st round picks years away, then I don’t get how they aren’t open to trading Kane. That’s how you kickstart a rebuild.”
