A crazy day for waiver claims as every player waiver yesterday have been claimed.
*-> Craig Rivet who was waived by the Buffalo Sabre's on re-entry waivers was claimed by the Columbus Blue Jackets.
*-> the Washington Capitals claimed Marco Sturm off the Los Angeles Kings.
*-> Nick Boynton was also claimed off waivers by the Flyers off the Blackhawks.
*-> Ty Conklyn has been placed on waivers by the St. Louis Blues. Ben Bishops shut oiut last night may have sealed Conklyns fate. It's expected that several teams may take a look at Conklyn. One being the Detroit Red Wings who are familiar with Conklyn. The Toronto Maple Leafs also may have interest as they may look at a deal involving Jonas Gustafsson once again.
*-> Pascal LeClaire has also been placed on waivers by the Ottawa Senators he's expected to clear.
*-> Bob McKenzie of TSN is reporting that Brent Seabrook and the Chicago Blackhawks are extremely close to getting a deal done in the ballpark of 5 years at 30 million overall. I heard whispers and reported several weeks ago that an offer was made to Seabrooks camp by the Hawks and with McKenzie confirming it's close Hawks fans should be excited and the Seabrook rumors should end.
*-> I'm hearing that as of 1pm today that Bryan McCabe has waived his no trade clause for the New York Rangers. While there is no deal in place yet and nothing is final, the Rangers and the Panthers are expected to iron out the details shortly. I'm hearing by 5pm tonight s the Rangers want him in the lineup as soon as possible. I've heard that Matt Gilroy and Evgeny Grachev could be prominent components of a deal. There's still timew for other teams to jump in and try and poach McCabe that being said.
*-> I'm hearing that there's something going on concerning Tomas Vokoun as well in Florida. the longtime rumors have the Flyers interested but are they actually?
*-> Chris Phillips has reportedly counter offered the Senators offer from last night this morning and both parties are trying to decide what to do next. It's believed that Murray may have had a change of heart and is willing to talk a bit longer. Nothing is agreed on so far not term or amount.
*-> The Vancouver Canucks have kicked the tires again about Ottawa's Brian Lee. It's still believed they think highly of Jason Strudwick of the Oilers as their depth addition.
*-> ESPN is reporting that the Zach Bogosian rumors to Detroit are false but he could be moving shortly. I haven't heard much on these ones so this is a rumor I'll have to dig deeper on.
*-> Brad Richards camp has reportedly offered the Dallas Stars a 1 year deal this past week which they refused. This could mean Richards is attracting some big time offers or that Joey Neiwendyk wants to lock Richards up for a while.
