*-> The Vancouver Canucks scouting staff was seen watching the Habs play the St Louis Blues last night. The speculation is the Canucks are looking at Paul Mara who the Canadians are quietly shopping of the Blues Barrett Jackman. Some have also said the Blues we're looking at Price but I doubt it but anythings possible.
*-> Another scouting based rumor. Darryl Sutter was seen taking in the Devils vs Florida last night also. Dion Phaneuf to New Jersey has been a major rumor all year long. The Flames are also suposedly trying to move Olli Jokinen. The Devils are looking for a centerman...
*-> As Carolina gets set to have a firesale before the seasons end management has asked both Niclas Wallin, and Ray Whitney to waive their no trade clauses. Darren Dregr of TSN reported this one so it should be very accurate. We've heard much about Ray but barely anything concerning Wallin. Whitney is pretty coveted and is expected to agree to a trade to a contender. Vancouver still is high on him from what I've heard. The Sens were but its unclear now as they've pulled together and Spezza is set to return. We've also heard about Detroit and the Kings looking for help but the off the radar team is the Nashville Preds looking to make a run. Wallin however probably won't waive his no trade. The Rangers are the only team I've heard about but any team looking for some defensive help on the back end could be listed.
