On the Leafs and Penguins …
And heard last night Pens were only team in on Phil Kessel. Doesn't change #Isles plans, but would be a big change for a rival.

On the Senators …
If the #Sens do move a defenceman today then expect it will be Eric Gryba. Murray said yesterday looking to make a move.

On the Islanders …
Couple tidbits for day 2 of draft: Wouldn't be surprised to see Grabner dealt for pick today. 2nd-rounder would be ideal return for #Isles

On the Canucks …
If Benning had landed 2015 second-round pick from Sharks for Bieksa, could have shopped Markstrom on Day 2 for a third, keep Lack. Now?

On the Oilers …
2nd-round of draft always interesting, with projected 1st rounders falling. Edm looking for big winger after getting Reinhart.#nhldraft

On the Devils …
Nothing official (at least announced) on the Palmieri trade yet. We'll see once we're back at BB&T Center.

Technically, not supposed to talk exact contract offers during UFA interview period, but players usually get a pretty good idea.

So, Devils wouldn't gain a lot IF they get Beleskey's UFA rights. But, if they wanted to get deal officially done before July 1, they can.

On the Blackhawks and Patrick Sharp
Source says #Blackhawks feel "no sense of urgency" with Sharp. Bowman still in talks, but might have more leverage once free agency opens.
