Ice Scoopz: Saturday Afternoon *Gratton to Columbus

*-> Chris Gratton was claimed on waivers today by the Columbus Blue Jackets from the Tampa Bay Lightning. Chris Gratton adds much needed depth at the center position for the Jackets.

*-> The Washington Caps are reportedly interested in Toronto's Nik Antropov. Toronto is believed to be asking a set price of a 1st round draft pick. Washington would like to dump Nylander in return but he has a no trade clause. Chicago is also interested in Antropov as they really need help up the middle since trading Robert Lang to Montreal.

The Hawks probably pass on Antropov because his skating would be a question. A fast two way center/faceoff man is their priority. They are also looking at a tough, experienced veteran on forward or defense, at a reasonable price.
