Well folks, we are 3 days and a day shift from the tradedeadline. Contrary to other years, this year's available rentals is not deep, as a lot of sellers of the past, could become buyers.

According to Pierre Lebrun of HNIC's hotstove, The St-Louis Blues could become buyers in this deadline. The Blues as I write this are 3 points from the eight spot in the west, held by Anaheim. Here is the dinger, the player that the Blues would like to acquire is Chris Pronger. The may just keep Keith Tkachuk.Wouldn't it be ironic if the Blues knocked the Ducks out of the playoffs after trading their star defenseman ? Bob Murray would have a lot of explaining to do.

The Ducks have told UFA defenseman, Scott Niedermeyer that he would not be traded at the deadline.

Be sure to check out the rest of Pierre's article.

Squabbling in Chicago ?

Al Strachan mentionned on HNIC's hotstove last night, that Brian Campbell and his coach, Joel Quenneville are not seeing eye on certain aspects and that if a team came calling, the Hawks would listen. Fat chance. Sam Fels, a Hawks blogger has his say on the situation.

It should be interesting folks.
