Darren Dreger of TSN is reporting that both Dallas and San Jose expressed interest in trade discussion with Mark Recchi, and may pick him up off waivers. If he clears waivers, it is believed Recchi will fulfill his obligation and report to the AHL farm team in Wilkes-Barre. Another possibility is that the Pittsburgh Penguins could call him up on re-entry waivers, when teams such as Carolina would be interested. The final option is to buy out Recchi's contract and make him an UFA. Source
According to a source in New York, the Rangers may have interest in Vancouver Canucks defenseman Lukas Krajicek. GM Dave Nonis has reportedly turned down offers, but may change his mind as the trade deadline approaches. The Rangers believe Krajicek would fit in well with the Czech contingent on their team.
