Ice Scoopz: Saturday Afternoon

On my way to Montreal as I type to do some partying, shopping, and taking in a Montreal Juniors game. Don't worry though Ill be posting as usual just minus a spell check so bare with me. Ill continue the countdown review to deadline day Monday.

*-> Columbus Blue Jackets are looking for a Center for their top line. Columbus has had scouts watching Tampa Bay for the past week. Is it a coincidence that Tampa's Vinny Prospal has been auditioning at center from left wing this week? I think not.

*-> The Edmonton Oilers are in talks with the New York Islanders about bringing back Bill Guerin. The Oilers still believe they can make the playoffs and they feel that Guerin could be the difference.

*-> The New York Rangers really want to add a vetran presance to their club. Sather wants to cure his clubs woes and he wants to bring in a forward who will make the team accountable doe their struggles. Keith Tkachuk would be the best fit. To make room for Tkachuk their trying to shop Petr Prucha and it looks like Pittsburgh feels he could play well with Sydney Crosby. Look for a deal to go down moving Prucha out and a veteran in.

*-> Montreal is looking desperately for some help on their backend. Rumor has it they are in deep talks with the Coyotes for Derek Morris. Well keep an eye on this one as its gaining momentum fast.
