Trade Deadline 2016: 9:45am

*-> The Montreal Canadiens are getting calls on Alex Galchenyuk this morning but don't appear keen on moving him today or at all.

*-> It also seams unlikely that the Canadiens move Alexei Emelin today as the recent wave of injuries to their blueline have the Habs searching themselves for another defenseman.

*-> The Coyotes have had offers for Martin Hanzal but they are in the same boat as the Canadiens not realistically looking to move him unless the offer is too good to refuse which doesn't appear to be the case.

*-> The Carolina Hurricanes are having a hard time clearing up their backend for the wave of kids next season.  John Michael Liles and Ron Hainsey aren't getting much traction so far. They'd like to move the pending free agent Liles and signed through next year.

*-> The Leafs don't expect to move Mark Arcobello today despite their efforts as he's been sent to the Toronto Marlies.

*-> A few teams looking for depth have actually kicked tires on Rene Bourque a pending UFA. The Jackets would love to get anything for the enigmatic Bourque I'm sure.
