    NHL 2014 summer activity.

    i thought a news and notes and rumors thread would be fun for the NHL offseason. just a general thread for trades and moves and whatnot.

    heres the first.

    the leafs are aggressively pursuing jumbo joe thornton from the sharks.

    Don't know a lot about Thornton's game to be honest... just make Phaneuf part of the deal.

      the book on thornton is hes a big body and he gets alot of assists. hes also been a centerpiece on a dramatically under achieving sharks team for nearly a decade. in the playoffs.

        Bozak better not be a part of that deal.. Kadri is useless so he can go.

        Van Riemsdyk is my only untouchable on that squad.

          Lucic and Marchand might be in trade talks as well.
          I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
          "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
          You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
          It was all
          true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
          He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
          mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

            Lucic outside of the structure of Boston is scary.

                Look for Kesler to be traded out of Vancouver as well.

                      spezza submits list of 10 teams he doesnt want to be traded to. ottawa will almost surely trade spezza west.

                          yeah, i know. it was a joke from all the "DO SOMETHING, DARCY!" cries we heard on deadline day or UFA opening day.

                            Spezza and Thornton have huge cap hits for their production. Its going to be tough to find a spot for them never mind a contender.
                            I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
                            "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
                            You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
                            It was all
                            true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.

                            mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

                              Spezza would be an upgrade at the #1 center position for (15) NHL teams based off of last seasons numbers.

                              He would be an upgrade for just about everyone at the #2 center position.

                              A break from Ottawa would do a world of good for him, And they could find another guy to point their finger at.

                              The market is looking like it could be flooded with top talent on the block this off-season, Could drive prices down big time.
