Gavin Lee
9:48
They are collecting assets for the future.
Durych
9:48
Any word coming out of Arizona? Not really excited about the Hoffman rumor because of his girlfriend history and locker room chemistry. Is that overrated and a non concern now?
Gavin Lee
9:48
Don't think anyone who isn't in that locker room should make assumptions about it.
LarryJ
9:49
Any truth to the rumors to the report out of Philly, Simmonds to Buffalo for Nylander and a pick?
Gavin Lee
9:50
Haven't heard anything like that.
Paul
9:50
what kind of return do you think Florida is looking for in a Brassard deal?
Gavin Lee
9:51
I actually think Florida would be more interested in a young player than draft picks at this point, but he can't come with much of a contract.
They are insistent on having a bunch of cap room.
LarryJ
9:51
With getting Montour from Anehiem last night make Risto expendable? Risto to Tampa for Point parsay?
Gavin Lee
9:51
Brayden Point isn't going anywhere.
9:52
Also think people are getting ahead of themselves on Ristolainen.

See anything happening with the Blues?  Allen could make an extremely attractive trade target and isn't being used as much as a $4m+ goalie should. Could he find a new home in Calgary, as he'd be cheaper to acquire than Howard and he's under a good contract for longer than the pending UFA?
Gavin Lee
9:53
Allen isn't an extremely attractive trade target. Everyone knows how inconsistent he's been.
Don't get me wrong, I think he has a lot of talent.
But no one is leaping to get him.
Josh
9:54
If the lightning decide to make a trade, who gets traded to make roster room/clear cap space?
Gavin Lee
9:54
Callahan is the obvious name, but there are obviously hurdles to that.
Remember though that they don't really need to clear space.
9:55
The Lightning can add nearly $8MM in full season cap hits.
I know that is incredible, but it's true.
Durych
9:56
Barrett Hayton has to be safe though right?
Gavin Lee
9:56
Hayton is an untouchable.
Stammer
9:56
Do the Lightning look for depth defensemen or hold?
Gavin Lee
9:56
This is definitely a move I could see.
Jim
9:56
What have you heard about the Stars this morning?
Gavin Lee
9:57
They've suddenly jumped back into the fray.
Zuccarello's injury is probably the reason.
Paul
9:57
Have you heard anything regarding Jeff Carter? Seems like he should be a trade candidate.
Gavin Lee
9:57
He is, but there are a lot of hurdles with Carter.
He basically would need to be sold on the new club.
9:58
There are more attractive options at the moment.
rob
9:58
Think we might see Gudas or Raffl on the move today?
Gavin Lee
9:59
Custance just tweeted that if Simmonds goes, Raffl may not.
But there is interest in him as well.
Sam
9:59
Do you think Elliott gets traded?
Gavin Lee
9:59
Elliott too, but again--goalie.
Paul
9:59
To add to the Carter question, do you see a market for Alec Martinez? Solid d-man that plays the right side and has a reasonable contract.
Gavin Lee
9:59
I'd say he's the most likely move.
10:00
The injury complicated things
Fabian
10:00
What do you think the Oilers will do today?
