Where are you getting that?

No, I was kidding. It's odd timing, but I doubt they trade Miller.

Probably centered around Miller + ___________ for Hiller + Ryan. That's my guess.

and probably not. There's no chance in hell Buffalo is parting with Ryan Miller. That's such random speculation lol. This deal would have nothing to do with goalies.

Obviously it's random speculation. Facepalm

Miller has gently hinted that he'd be open to a trade.

It's probably actually centred around Getzlaf + Ryan for Nathan Gerbe + ____

Yeah, that would make a lot of sense. Gag

Miller is from Detroit. He would go there.

He'd have to list 8 teams he wouldn't play for, so he could ask to be moved to Detroit, but it goes against Detroit's mantra of not spending big money on the G position.

But the opportunity to have Miller under control and to have that 'one last run' with Lidstrom may change their tune.

A source close to the situation tells me a Bobby Ryan trade is imminent. Talks have been ongoing for weeks. I'll have a blog up soon.

#Flyers not involved. #Rangers appear to be front runners. A deal "could" be completed by the end of the week. TB showing interest.

Who's John Boruk?

And damn, no to the Rangers please - although at least it's not in the division - and I'd also assume Dubinsky is the centerpiece.

Not if AD are trying to shed salary, he won't. If they aren't trying to shed salary, then there's absolutely no reason to trade a guy that clearly has the ability to put 30+ pucks in the back of the net year in and year out. Trading him for BD would be a weird move, regardless of any other pieces moving.

Perhaps they feel that they need a grinding 2nd line C more than a W.

Perhaps they do. Still, if they decide that they need a grinding 2LC more than a (borderline) elite winger, I'm sure they can get one for less than $4.2M. Everything that I've read indicates that this is a move based on $$$. That makes sense to me because I can't imagine another reason to make Bobby Ryan available. Also, if this is financially motivated, as it seems it must be, they simply won't move BR for BD.

There's never this much smoke without some fire. Sounds like the Rangers would be in the lead for this, but who knows...

I assume this has been put to bed with Boudreau being hired? Unless Murray has Dung for brains, he should wait and see how they respond to Humpty.

It depends on if the trade was to shake things up because they were in a slump or because of some other reasons...

Botta is reporting that trade talks are still on. F-ing dumb stuff.

well after having lost the cup to anaheim i've got to say i'm not a huge fan of the team. some of their players hell ya, but not the team as a whole. so yeah they want to trade Bobby Ryan then go for it. I'm also very interested to see what Boudreau can do. My guess is maybe not so much. I think he was in a good situation in WSH. maybe the stars got too big in their heads to be coached. my guess is that semin will have to be traded soon also.
