So far we don’t have much in the way of things to report. Greg Wyshynski said the Devils are in on DH, but I don’t know how much he actually knows.
I read where Larry Brooks said the Rangers are after Hamhuis, too, but who knows really. Have to beware the posturing and purposeful BS this time of year.

First post! Woo! Only took me a year.
Do you see Ellis going anywhere?

I doubt Ellis will be traded, given the fact that other goalies are on the market as well and the Preds will likely need him over the course of the next few weeks.

Beat me to the punch, and I could’ve left out the “Dirk may feel differently”.

Better late than never!
I don’t (Dirk may feel differently) because its the age-old problem of him being worth more to us than he is to someone else.
The only viable option is Philly, and they don’t want to give up any young scoring. Neither of our AHL goalies are ready for prime-time, so if we didn’t get a goalie back it’d be trouble.

yes I will
Did you SEE that hip check last night in the late 2nd? AWESOME.

I will NOT miss Hamhuis when he is gone. How could I miss him taking the puck behind his own net only to get pressured and turn it over every other shift. Maybe if he unleased a good hip check more than once a season…maybe…I will take my chances with someone who 1. has not maxed out on potential 2. Has more offensive upside 3. Has more defensive upside!!
Section 326 is in the house!!!
Bruce Garrioch is reporting Derek Morris to Phoenix
It will be interesting to see what the return is. Most top-four D traded lately have been for 2nd-round picks.
I have to wonder if Poile is waiting out the market on Hamhuis, as the available options on the market get fewer and fewer, the remaining buyers will need to up the ante.

McKenzie confirmed it
I trust Poile in this situation—he’s only going to deal if it makes us better, not move just to make a move.
Dirk, would you say Hamhuis is worth a first (theoretically speaking, in a draft-pick only scenario)? He’s significantly better than the defensemen traded thus far.

McKenzie/Dreger reporting
That Phoenix is sending merely a 4th rounder for Derek Morris. Granted, Hamhuis is a better player than he is but I gotta wonder if this shifts the price.

He's the cream of the D crop
But they’ve said publicly (and I’d believe) that they’re not going to just trade him for a pick. It’s got to be a deal that helps the team this year. It’s going to be very difficult to pull something like that off, however. The teams that have forwards to offer are out of the playoff hunt, and wouldn’t need Hamhuis as a rental.

throwback night
trade for Kariya and bring back Radulov. Trade Hamhuis for Hartnell. Suit up Dunham. Wear the yellow jerseys!
DH
Poile is trading him for crosby, semin, and edmontons 1st round pick. As reported by this guy. Lol

Florida sending Dennis Seidenberg to Boston
That would take the Bruins out of the mix for Hamhuis…

didn't really have the pieces anyway
Poile was never taking Ryder. Seidenberg will be a better gauge on the Hamhuis price than anyone, I think.

Aaron Ward (CAR) to Anaheim
Another defenseman, this time to ducks, for AHL goalie Justin Pogge and a fourth.

That's an odd deal
Ward is pretty much washed up, and Pogge hasn’t developed well since his days in Toronto.

Mhm. Ward is 37, and ANA has good defensemen. Carolina just trying to get anything at this point?

Only if Poile gets us another forward. 7 goals and his style of play will be missed at least some.

Just think, though. Who, out of last night’s lineup, would you remove in favor of Jones?

On the Forecheck is SB Nation's blog covering the Nashville Predators.
Nobody, but I’m struggling with why we waived him and not Belak. Tootoo and Weber can take care of the problems we have on the ice, and if the other team ices an enforcer, that means we have an advantage in being able to roll 4 lines.

Trotz has a long-standing preference for dressing an enforcer when the other team does, so Belak isn’t going anywhere, even if he only plays a handful of games down the stretch.

former Predator Scott Walker to Capitals
for a “late round pick”, per Bob McKenzie…interesting, doesn’t seem to fit at all.

I’m still a fan of scott walker so that makes me plenty happy. Hope he finally sees post season success.

Posssible posturing
Is this possible posturing by the Caps to trade a forward for say… Hamhuis??
hey!!!!!!!!
Trade walker for hammer. Might not add a lot but would put a big nostalgic grin on this preds fan.
by flyalder on Mar 3, 2010 12:52 PM EST via mobile up reply actions
absolutely
Been saying all along that Washington and Nashville make the best trading partners. Tomas Fleischmann or Eric Fehr FTW

TSN reporting Peter Mueller and Kevin Porter (PHX) to Colorado for Wojtek Wolski…wowsers

Follow me on Twitter
Adrian Dater writing about this possibility last night:
What do I think? I think trading Wolski isn’t the most outlandish idea in the world, but if I’m the Avalanche, I’m scared to death of only getting a Peter Mueller for him. Yeah, this guy had some good numbers his rookie year, but, no exaggeration, he’s been AWFUL since. Wolski’s numbers look like Gordie Howe’s next to this guy. I don’t like getting "Guy Trying To Live Up To Previous Potential" guys. They almost never live up to their previous potential. It always seems to be one long downward spiral for the once-promising guy, who leaves a bunch of disappointed teams in his wake. Think Bryan Fogarty. Think Alexander Daigle. Think Michael Ryder. Think Jeff Jillson and whole bunch of other guys.
An odd move for Colorado.

No kidding, this is really strange.
Lotta people thinking Walker was acquired by WSH so they can flip Fleischmann or Fehr for a D (Hamhuis).

no surprise
Poile wants scoring, he’s said it already. They should’ve offered Clowe or Setoguchi straight up.

Picks are based upon final standing position right?? Still that is hard to turn down. You could have flopped those picks for a scorer. Guess you had to have something lined up first though
Section 326 is in the house!!!
That’s the key; if you’re going to set up a 3-way deal, you have to go back and forth with everyone to make sure all the details are set. Hard to do when things are moving so quickly today.

If he could’ve flipped that first for Whitney, then again doubtful Whitney waives his NTC to come here.

Section 326 is in the house!!!
someone just freaked me out by telling me....
…he’d heard we’d signed Chelios. Turns out he heard it a couple of days ago. WHEW!
He did sign with Atlanta, though
They’ll keep him in the minors until they need him, but it would be amazing to see him back in the league at his age.

Is atl's farm team in chicago?
I heard that’s where he’s been in the minors…or was that before this trade?
That's right
They had to put him through waivers so they are able to bring him up when needed.

From the Caps blog
@CapsBlog: One of the #Caps wingers will be packing his bags shortly via a team source. His jersey number may be in the teens.
I believe that would include your two boys, Chris.

Could be more
Given the backlog that they usually have to work through, I’d say we’ll probably hear about deals for an extra hour or so.

I can’t believe that we are going to say that adding another Dman is exactly what the Dr. ordered! C’mon Poile!
I’d agree that making a trade is preferable, but adding Grebeshkov was a very good move. This team is better today than it was before the Olympic break.

Sounds like a depth forward coming... nothing too exciting though

No Moves.... again.
I know we made one move to get a D man but…. Its amazing that the Yotes, in Bankruptcy court, without an owner… ummm wait a minute, its the NHL, can make trades and have a higher payroll than the Preds and make moves and we basically do not. I just don’t understand…
Don’t discount Grebeshkov, he is a very significant boost to this team. Dustin Boyd did get picked up today, although he’ll be a 4th-line/PK guy most likely.

Looks like we got Dustin Boyd from Calgary.
I’m guessing he’ll be scratched fairly often, but can fill in and play a good speed game if called upon.

Something?
I wasn’t expecting a Forseburg type deal, but thought we would do something to get us more scoring. You have to put the puck in the net to Win!
