Ice Scoopz: Wednesday Morning

A few quick ones for you guys,

*-> The New York Rangers reportedly have interest in Bryan McCabe. The Rangers are still looking to add an offensive defenseman for the playoff push, it's said their main target was Tomas Kaberle and Sergei Gonchar till this recent turn of events.

*-> Last night the Boston Bruins scouts were reportedly looking at Stephan Weiss of the Florida Panthers which is kind of puzzling as the Bruins just acquired their forward acquistion. This could mean another further deal could be coming for the B's and it could mean a few players could be on their way out. Some are speculating that everything now hinges on sending players Toronto's way for Kaberle.

*-> Talked very breifly to my source via text this morning about the Kelly deal last night and he replied "I'm shocked, never saw that coming, no-one did". The text sums up the feeling for many close to the Sens and many Sens fans. From what I'm hearing Daniel Alfredsson may not be as happy as he's made out to be as several of his closest friends have been shipped out first rather than cut the deadweight. From previous conversations with my source I'm hearing Chris Neil was fuming about trading Mike Fisher and now with Kelly gone, I wonder how he feels. Hopefully I'll get more out of him including more on the Columbus talks which he says IS in the works phase still.

More soon
