My only question is why a guy like Bill Clement, Darren Pang, etc. would be involved with him. If he is a complete phony, wouldn't they know it? Nonetheless, Ek has taken advantage of fan's need to know and used it as well to get himself press passes to games. It's like free season tickets!Woodside Acreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12405861644484309486noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-15832398108019051142008-02-18T11:16:00.000-08:002008-02-18T11:16:00.000-08:00Jambo Duncan...

The Thrash are perhaps in the most interesting position/predicament... Sacrifice the present for the future? This is a team that could actually garner a third seed in the Conference... Trading Hossa would end that dream... I heard on one of the Center Ice channels the other night that Hossa has resigned himself to the fact that he is going elsewhere... Let's see how MY source pans out... LOL!<BR/><BR/>The "Good" Hossa is a wonderful talent, but his playoff production has been nonexistent... I certainly wouldn't mortgage the farm for his services... <BR/><BR/>And Nutz, its great to have you back - alive and well and ready to stir the pot...Antzmarchinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14831888545205166172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-53543295821362319792008-02-18T10:12:00.000-08:002008-02-18T10:12:00.000-08:00I bet Havlot comes over to us if we don't get FOPP...I bet Havlot comes over to us if we don't get FOPPA.

We would be shocked if Lapointe and/or, Perreault were NOT traded.<BR/>2) Havlot is being offered we're told, but with another year on his deal and his injury past as well as the asking price its a 50:50 proposition. May be another trade that gets done at the June meetings. <BR/>3) Lang is more likely to be traded. The Hawks aren't asking much (draft pick(s), but he too has another year on his deal so its no a guarentee <BR/>4) Khabibulin's injury we're told isn't serious, BUT a GM looking to bolster for the stretch run would be wary about a possible damaged player so a physical would likely be an integral part of any deal. There are teams interested. Much like Havlot even if a deal isn't done now, its still possible, even likely by the draftFAUX RUMORShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403913043629362701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-52568444108879219882008-02-18T09:24:00.000-08:002008-02-18T09:24:00.000-08:00What are you guys hearing about any moves the hawk...What are you guys hearing about any moves the hawks may make?

Sure Eklund has minions and uses fake ID's of his own (he's been caught countless times on other blogs doing this), but we doubt he'll go down that road here. Its a loser either way for him.<BR/>3) DMG: yes, the Ovechkin silliness was but one of the MANY idiotic trade rumours that he has posted in just the past few months. <BR/>4) He uses the plausible deniability of there being 'discussions' and most discussions don't become trades. Fair enough, that's true, BUT when both parties deny there were discussions AFTER the fact then he loses ALL credibility. That has happened over and over!FAUXRUMORS 2https://www.blogger.com/profile/16787931383624127006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-76294668250830310222008-02-18T08:39:00.000-08:002008-02-18T08:39:00.000-08:00Eklund lost credibility in my book when reported t...Eklund lost credibility in my book when reported the Capitals were going to trade Ovechkin to Nashville about two days before he signed that 13 year extension.DMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737116968841961638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024341463089279796.post-89275056221205438302008-02-18T08:22:00.000-08:002008-02-18T08:22:00.000-08:00WOW!
