*-> The Kyle Wellwood deal has finally gone official. Wellwood will play out the remainder of the season with the St. Louis Blues and once again hit free agency this summer.
*-> Jarkko Ruutu has told the press that he believes his days in Ottawa are numbered due to his UFA status this summer and the fact he's spoken to no-one in Ottawa about a possible resigning. Most people saw this one coming, Ruutu could bring in a little help if dealt and a player of his mold usually is sought after deadline day especially in the Wild West. It's said the Red Wings and the Stars could be interested.
*-> Reports have the Dallas Stars telling teams calling for Brad Richards he will remain with the team this deadline and resigning him is a priority. Not really new news out of Dallas. Many have speculated a deal but why would the Stars risk a long playoff run by trading away their goto guy? I cant see it happening unless they can bring in a cheaper 100% gaurentied replacement.
*-> A crazy rumor out of New Jersey has the Columbus Blue Jackets sending Mike Commodore to the Devils for recently waived Brian Rolston. I cant see the Devils adding another slow imobile defenseman to their lineup. They need a puck mover, the rumors of Calgary trading Jay Bouwmeister to the Devils makes a lot more sense as both parties benifit from the deal.
