Trade Deadline 2016: 2:42pm

*-> Lots of quiet teams out there but the Canadian teams a part from Calgary have been silent.  Montreal and Ottawa weren't exactly expected to make a splash but there were rumors that the Canadiens were looking to make more of a shake up and were listening to offers from around the league.  Eller is off the market as reported but what about Emelin? Does the Candiens injuries to their back end effect this.  I've seen a few rumors surrounding Dvante Smith-Pelle in the last hour but other than that silence.

*-> The Edmonton Oilers seam content to wait for the draft to move Nail Yakupov despite the interest but a team could surprise in the next 30 minutes.

*-> Vancouver has to do something with Hamhuis and he's expected to be the next big name to drop.  Radim Vrbata was at practice this morning but he's still a likely candidate to be moved.

*-> The Dallas Stars remain the contender for Hamhuis.

*-> Toronto after a furious week and slowed to a crawl today.  Everyone around the league are saying they really killed the market for Parenteau but trying to ask too much and force a deal.

*-> What are the devil's doing with Lee Stempniak? That's still a decent size fish to be caught by a contender.  The Devils may have decided to keep him for a late push.

*-> The Bruins have reportedly spoken to the Blue Jackets. Hartnell a Boston style player? or Fedor Tyutin to help their defensive woes?

*-> Florida may not be done dealing for a forward, the cheap return on Pirri might have been a roster move.
