Penguins, Chicago, Florida deal?
Sources report that the Florida Panthers, Chicago Blackhawks, and Pittsburgh Penguins are set to make a 3 way trade. This is how it would work out:
To Chicago: Robert Lang, Milan Kraft, Jason Wiemer, Brett Hedican and a mid-round draft pick from Pittsburgh
To Pittsburgh: Tony Amonte, Marcus Nilson, 3rd round pick
To Florida: Dan Lacouture, Eric Daze
I dont know about this one folks, it seems like the teams that needs to build the most (Florida) is stupidly throwing players around. But in the case of Pittsburgh, they would get the scoring punch that they need. Chicago would be fools to make this trade though.

It has been reported on SportsNet that Dave Manson has been traded to Dallas for Jyrki Lumme.
This trade just proves that Manson is not totally useless, as most people would have you believe. Lumme will look to help the Leafs on the PP and with their transition game.

Rumors, Rumors and more Rumors !
Latest rumor was heard on the Montreal sports station CKAC, that sent Martin Rucinsky to New York in return of tough guy Sandy McCarthy.
I have absolutly no comments concerning this rumor but one thing I don’t get : why the hell would André Savard be looking for a tough guy up front when the main problem of the Habs is a lack of goal scoring ???
One is for sure, the Canadiens are not going to make the playoffs with the team they have right now. And people here in Montreal realize that and ARE VERY OKOTA!!!
So look for trades very soon !
