EHM The Blue Line

Bah. He will get 7.5 mill per season for 15 seasons and a no movement clause. Oh wait...maybe not. JFJ was fired.

But I can easily see Campbell getting that much money. He is young still, he is good still, and clearly with the market drying up with everyone signing already will be one of (if not the) top guys out there. He will be in big demand for someone.

Dan Boyle re-signed. 6 years / 40m. according to http://blogs.tampabay.com/lightning/200 ... signs.html
Don't know how reliable that site is though

Edit: Prospal to Philly for Picard and a pick, apparently reported by TSN and VS, nothing on their site yet though

Vaclav Prospal from Tampa to Philly for Alexandre Picard and Conditional 2009 pick.

Just announced on Flyers site, and Versus.

Wow! Flyers have given up on Picard, that is a bit surprising. And a big payment for Mr. Prospal.

And they are off! YAY!

Also on Yahoo, so. *sighs*

Hossa to Montreal? Didn't see that comin...

I think that Prospal was acquired to replace Simon Gagne, who is out for the rest of the season. From what i've heard, the conditionnal pick is a 2nd if the Flyers make the playoffs, and a 3rd if they don't. (seen on rds.ca, so it's in French, so no link...)

Sutter made it official that he won't move Tanguay. LINK

It obviously kills the Tanguay for Ryder (Mtl) rumor. Then Huselius has been rumored to be the one on the go in Calgary, but i don't see it pretty serious. I even heard a rumor of Huselius for Marleau... Doesn't look serious to me.

Bryce Salvador for Cam Janssen

LINK

Hossa and Richards have not happened. Those are just rumours. Don't trust anything except TSN. It is the only website that is always confirmed deals.

Sutter can say all he wants, if a deal comes up for Tanguay that makes sense they move him

And Janssen for Salvador...the Devils stole a guy. Salvador is a good 5-6 dman.

Watching some NHL show online, and they just mentioned Campbell is gone to San Jose.

Belak to Florida btw...

Yeah, TSN's trade tracker shows Campbell to San Jose but no details on the return yet.

Steve Bernier + 1st round pick.

Keep the trades comin' baby.

Edit: Richards is asked to waive his no-trade clause.

That's not a bad haul for Buffalo. Campbell is a rental, right?

bruins72 wrote:That's not a bad haul for Buffalo. Campbell is a rental, right?

I don't think so. Buffalo failed to sign him to a 3-year extension, so I guess not.

Other rumored names are Khabibulin, Tuomo Ruttuu from Chicago, Fedorov from Blue Jackets, and a lot more.

Richards is officially in Dallas. With Holmqist! For Jussi Jokinen, Halpern and Smith.

If Buffalo failed to sign Campbell to an extension, that would make him a rental (UFA this summer). I haven't seen anything saying he re-signed as part of the trade.

I've been hearing Richards to Dallas but haven't seen confirmation yet. Are you sure it's official?

Sorry, I wasn't sure what "Rental" means.

It is confirmed, also Huet to Capitals...What the Dickens? for second round pick. Man, didn't see that coming. I guess they are making space for someone else? Hossa maybe?

I'm seeing Richards to Dallas now but they haven't said what's going to Tampa.

As for Huet going to Washington, I'm guessing they just figured now was the time. They've got Halek and Price. Why not get something for Huet when everyone is in the trading mood? Washington is probably thinking about life about Kolzig.

Okay, now I'm hearing that the deal was Brad Richards and Johan Holmqvist to Dallas for Mike Smith, Jussi Jokinen, and Jeff Halpern.

EDIT:

Now I'm hearing that the Blackhawks sent Ruutu to Carolina for Ladd.

I'm also hearing Florida sent Salei to Colorado for Skrastins and a 3rd.

Another rumors says Andrew Ladd (CAR) <> Tuomo Ruttuu (CHI), not confirmed

Edit: Okay. Confirmed.

Another trade confirmed. Martin Lapointe to Ottawa, also Robert Lang pulled off ice during practice, we'll see.

Chicago recieved 6th round pick.

A 6th rounder for Lapointe isn't bad. He's gritty and provides good veteran leadership. Not bad at all! I had read rumors earlier that Ottawa gave up a 2nd for him and thought it was ridiculous. This is good though.

Happy Habsw got rid of Huet, they didnt lose him to UFA and to me whats better the press here, who are NUTS will stop the goalie contreversy here they love.

The Habs are a team that will be better in the future, this year is just gravy, a second rounder in 2009 may nto be alot, but it beats nothign and now Price will play most nights liek he has done all his life and get better and better.

Columbus discussing with Colorado about Adam Foote. And another rumors about Colorado involving Rob Blake

Okay, confirmed, Adam Foote to Colorado, still in play Hossa, Roloson, Blake, Fedorov, Ehrhoff, Kilger (rumored he's going to Pittsburgh), McCabe, Kubina, Jokinen. Two hours left:)

Ruslan Salei shipped by Colorado to Florida for Karlis Skrastins...

Adam Foote to Colorado! Details to follow...
