gohabsgo17 writes "Remember a couple of years ago when the Dallas Stars won the Fabian Brunnstrom sweepstakes, supposedly signing the best player not playing in the NHL? What you may not remember was that the Montreal Canadiens were also in those sweepstakes and were so close to signing Brunnstrom.
Well, according to various reports and links, the Habs may end up getting their wish."

Could Tavares Hold Out?
nordiques100 writes "The similarities between John Tavares and another former Oshawa General, Eric Lindros, may not end with them playing on the same junior team and being highly touted phenoms in their draft year.
Something to ponder is whether Tavares will mirror Lindros and perhaps decide to not play for the NY Islanders (or another failing franchise), should the Isles win the draft lottery.
He is the consensus number 1 pick but he may never suit up for the team that chooses him first overall. "

Cap Casualties
cam7777 writes "First the Washington Times reported on it, and now TSN is covering it as well. Many NHL teams will be facing a cap crisis either this summer, or the next. The past few seasons have demonstrated the financial woes teams suffer after achieving some degree of success, and most predict this off-season will be no different.

Quick Oil Drops and Other News

Possible bargaining chips for the Oilers include: W Erik Cole, W Robert Nilsson, F Marc Pouliot, F Rob Schremp, D Ladislav Smid, D Taylor Chorney and possibly of most value, one of D Tom Gilbert or D Denis Grebeshkov."

The Jay Bouwmeester Edition Alright Panther fans, lets do this. I want to put this out there before something happens. We've all heard the rumors out there. We know the Panthers don't want to fold their tent, but we know it makes little sense to lose him for nothing after the season. So lets see if we can come up with something new to please everyone.

Where did all the sellers go?
BLUE_AND_WHITE writes "16 teams make the playoffs. 14 teams do not. Ideally then, there would be 16 buyers and 14 sellers. This is rarely the case, as sub playoff teams look for a boost, while some 7th or 8th place teams wonder if its worth while to buy a player.
This season seems to be more of the prior. Sellers are falling off the board left right and center, meaning this Deadline could very well be slim pickings. "
