Ohlund, Visnovsky,Warrener on the block?

According to Metro News, Mattias Ohlund, Lubomir Visnovsky and Rhett Warrener are "being mentioned in blockbuster-trade possiblities." However, it would seem unlikely given that Ohlund has a no trade clause and Visnovsky just signed a 5-year extension. Warrener would hardly be considered a "blockbuster", unless he was packaged with a player like Kristian Huselius, who is rumoured to be on the move. Source

Don Meehan, Mike Peca's agent, confirmed that Peca will make his decision tomorrow (Tuesday). The Rangers and Blue Jackets are the most likely destinations, with an unknown third team. Source
