Thankfully, that's true so far.

well I have only heard of one running his mouth, so that's down to 28 other GM's, scratch Detroit, they shouldn't be interested, so then 27 GM's to work with to get a deal done.

The Cap's GM has commented as well...

When asked if Pronger had asked to be traded, Lowe responded: "He hasn't' asked me. I'll just leave it at that."

"We just got over a seven-game series in the Stanley Cup finals and there seems to be a lot of discussion about this and I'm not sure where it's coming from," added Lowe. "Let's put it this way. Why would we want to trade Chris Pronger?"

"One thing I've learned in my five or six years as a manager is that stuff tends to out of right field for whatever reasons. It can be agendas, hidden agendas, certain motivations, so nothing surprises me."

However, agent Pat Morris told TSN a trade request has now been made on behalf of his client.

Found that link at HB in a post by "Halibut." I don't see how the Pronger situation is different. While appreciate what you're saying, Burke, you must also walk the walk.

As we say, "Talk is cheap!"
