Some more big games for tonight. The United States vs Finland who beat the Czechs due to an international rule. A tough loss for the Czechs. And of course the Canadians vs the Slovaks who knocked out the defending champions Sweden. In the US game, the US should take it but it'll be a tight defensive game. As for Canada they should be able to take the Slovaks but it'll be harder because the Slovaks have never been this far before and won't want to lose this chance. They,ll also show a lot more heart than the Ruskies.
*-> Tomas Kaberle of the Toronto Maple Leafs has said many times in the past he's happy in Toronto and won't waive his no trade unless they ask. Brian Burke claims he won't ask ether. So that should end all Kaberle rumors right? Wrong. Now sources close to Tomas Kaberle are saying he told them that he has been asked to waive his no trade and is willing to. How true these sources are we don't know but anything can happen.
*-> Alexei Ponikarovsky should be on his way out by March 3rd. Interest in him have started to pick up and many have already started bidding on the rugged winger. Rumors have Pittsburgh still in the lead with Buffalo, Washington and LA behind. Pittsburgh seams most likely, they've been pushing hard since the Whitney bidding got too high. Expect Burke to drag this one to the wire and start a war once the other big names have gone.
More this afternoon, plus Part 2 of the Deadline Preview with the SouthEast division being reviewed. I've also got a top 10 likely to be traded due tonight as well. I've been pointed out that the last few days of Olympic Game reviews haven't gone through yet so Ill repost again and get them up. I'm having problems with the longer posts with Blogger recently so hopefully this time around will work.

I think the wheels could come off for Halak tonight after a brilliant tournament. The Slovaks are thrilled to have just beaten Sweden and make it to the medal round, and Canada will bring them back down to earth.
Everyone is predicting a U.S. win, which mainly seems to be based on Miller and beating Canada. Finland has done well to make the medal round, and if the Americans put in an effort like the Switzerland game they will be upset.
I have the U.S. with Canada by 3 tonight Scoopz; realistic?
