Trade Bonanza 2012! Speculation, Rumours, the Works!

No, you have to pay. Likely not more than a 3rd and a middling prospect though, but LA will continue to point out Fat Penner's 93 goals in 3 3/4 seasons in Edmonton as evidence of what he can do.

If they are assured of Nash coming in, they may be willing to take less for Fat Penner.

Kubina has St.Louis on his list of teams he'd waive to go to apparently. St.Louis may have just got him. We'll see though...

For SURE the Ruutu injury has scared GMs into re-thinking their strategy of keeping guys until the 11th hour.

We should be in on that like Penner on donuts then. It's so worth a try...no harm at all.

Perhaps LA would be interested in a depth player like Konopka + a 5th?

Twitter's gone quiet. Something big coming, I can just feel it!!!!

Per TBay's Twitter:

Kubina being held off the ice to protect the team's interests. Has been asked for teams he would be willing to move to.

Tampa Bay Lightning @TBLightning Close

Old and slow? We don't have any of those defencemen....

Per DownGoesBrown on Twitter, Kubina once said this:

"As a player, I have to be there the whole year, not just go there the end of the season, play a couple of games, and go into the playoffs."

Harhar.

All's quiet...

Perhaps DownGoesBrown can regale us with more of his irreverent humour to get us through?

I went for a nice long poop and came back expecting to read all about the Kubina trade. So disappointed.

I guess Yzerman said nothing is "imminent", but Kubina won't go on the ice again until a trade is done.

Good times.

Apparently Knuble will NOT be traded, says Chuck Gormley on Twitter.

I guess the conversation went a little like this.

Yzerman: We'd like to know if you'd be willing to be traded?

Kubina: No way dude

Yzerman: Let me know if you change your mind...Oh and btw you're not playing until a trade is finalised so provide me with a list would ya.

Kubina: Muttering swear words in Czech

That is silly IMO.

Per Portzline: CBJ confirm what we suspected: Nash, Carter, Tyutin and Dorsett all took maintenance days and skipped today's practice.

Booooooo. This day just went back to being boring.
