Ice Scoopz: Trade Deadline Day 5

*-> The Lightning have delayed their afternoon flight till after the trade deadline day. Could mean a player or two out the door Bob McKenzie reports. My guess is Alex Tanguay or Jeff Halpern both very expendable.

*-> Martin Biron has officially been told he's out the door by 3pm, not too sure where. Philadelphia has gotten back into this one as it seams the Nashville deal has stalled. Nashville asking for Parent and another prospect possibly Nodl, the price is too high.

*-> Tomas Vokoun has told Florida management he will waive his no trade clause as long as it's a contender. There has rumored to be a list of teams he'd consider. Looks like this ones picking up steam.

*-> A report out of Toronto has just said the Leafs are shopping Tomas Kaberle but are just kicking tires. Burke apparently knows the list of teams Kaberle would lift his clause for. Interesting.

Scoopz,
Any chance the leafs deal Kabs to the Sens, or is that just wishful thinking haha?

Very wishful thinking, I doubt the Leafs could trade their franchise defensemen to an arch rival. Could seriously haunt them.

I think Biron could be a nice fit in Ottawa, great price, great dressing room guy.
Ellis seems like a bit of a gamble to me, he looked good on that one playoff run, but is still not proven in my opinion.
Finally, Mike Smith would be such a long-shot to be a legitimate starter. If Murray made that deal and the Sens went out first round, I think he would need to be shown the door.....

I'm not sold on Smith ether to be honest. He's lost every starting position hes ever gotten in the big leagues.

I think its go big or go home with the Sens and their goalie quest. Biron just doesn't seem any better than Leclaire. Why give up an asset for something we already have?
