Ice Scoopz: Trade Deadline

I added a link to a Trade Deadline Chatroom for everyone watching live or just passing through to discuss any possible rumors and deals today. It's in the link category on the side panel of the side.

*-> The Toronto Maple Leafs have balked at the asking price of John-Michael Liles in Colorado. Apparently the Aves are asking for a 1st rounder for John-Michael Liles. Last year the Aves would have been lucky to get a 6th one source has said.

*-> Busy day for my Sens source today but he has promised to keep me in the fold through-out the day. For Everyones information last night it was he who tipped me off to the Chris Phillips signing that beat most media outlets last night so hopefully he can bring some more news for Sens fans throughout the day.

*-> More on the Brad Richards situation, the Dallas Stars are only looking to Eastern Conference teams. Richards is apparently "warm" on going to the Rangers. The Toronto Maple Leafs do not wish to trade for him.

*-> Lots of contradicting reports have Tim Connolly not leaving the Sabres. Reports are saying the Sabres wish to keep Connolly and another member of the Sabres could be on the move. I'm not buying those rumors, Boyes was brought in to replace Connolly. Great player but given his injury woes and his UFA status I believe Buffalo management wants a fresh start.

*-> Nick Kypreos has reported the Montreal Canadiens were looking at former Canadien Chris Higgins as a possible addition till he got injured.
