Hockey and NHL Rumors for Oct 7, 2010
The Edmonton Oilers have assigned defenseman Sheldon Souray to it's AHL affiliate, who have subsequently loaned him to the Washington Capitals AHL affiliate, the Hershey Bears. Souray remains the property of the Oilers and has no official connection to the Capitals organization. Brochu's take: This is similiar to what the Caps did with Michael Nylander. I think the players and owners will have to address this issue in the new CBA.

The Canucks will also sign forward Peter Schaefer to a one-year, two-way contract ($600,000) on Thursday.

Hockey and NHL rumors for Aug 29, 2009
The San Jose Sharks have traded defensemen Christian Ehrhoff and Brad Lukowich to the Vancouver Canucks in exchange for defenseman Daniel Rahimi and forward Patrick White. Brochu's take: For the Sharks, this is a bit of a salary dump. With Ehrhoff and Lukowich off the books, the Sharks free up around $5.5 million in cap space. For the Canucks, they have significantly improved their defensive depth, while also acquiring assets in preparation for a trade.
The Canucks have also officially signed defenseman Mathieu Schneider to a one-year, $1.5 million contract. Brochu's take: A sweetheart deal with GM Mike Gillis' old client.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed forward Alex Tanguay to a one-year, $3.25 million deal. Brochu's take: You have to wonder why it took so long, but regardless, this makes the Bolts a more dynamic offensive team.
The Lightning have also re-signed defenseman Matt Lashoff to a two-year deal.
The New York Islanders have signed forward Tony Romano to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The St. Louis Blues have re-signed forward Chris Porter and Justin Fletcher to two and one-year deals, respectively.

Trade deadline wrap-up, Part 2
The Toronto Maple Leafs have traded forward Nik Antropov to the New York Rangers in exchange for a second round draft pick as well as a conditional draft pick. Brochu's take: I guess the price came down after all, as GM Brian Burke was asking for a first. The Rangers seem to be making a big run in the playoffs.
The Leafs also traded forward Dominic Moore to the Buffalo Sabres in exchange for a second round draft pick. Brochu's take: Burke continues to collect more picks.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have also traded goalie Olaf Kolzig, defencemen Jamie Heward and Andy Rogers and a fourth-round pick to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for a prospect Richard Petiot. Brochu's take: What??? How did the NHL even allow such a trade to happen. Yes, it's a pure salary dump, but teams should at least make the deal somewhat fair. Maple Leafs win this one, no question.
Tampa Bay Lightning have traded defenseman Steve Eminger to the Florida Panthers for defenceman Noah Welch and a third round draft pick.
The Bolts also traded forward Mark Recchi and a second round draft pick in the 2010 NHL Entry Draft to the Boston Bruins in exchange for defenseman Matt Lashoff and forward Martins Karsums. Brochu's take: A fairly even trade, as Recchi could be a good playoff performer. Lashoff and Karsums are good young players that will probably be traded by the Bolts in the summer. ;-)
The Boston Bruins have added some defensive depth and toughness by acquiring Steve Montador from the Anaheim Ducks for forward Petteri Nokelainen.

NHL and Hockey Rumors for Feb 17, 2009
The Boston Herald is reporting that Edmonton Oilers forward Erik Cole is, according to "one NHL source", is telling his friends that he expects to be a Boston Bruin soon. Most speculation focused on Vladimir Sobotka and defenseman Matt Lashoff as trade bait for the impending unrestricted free agent. Brochu's take: The Oilers are still fighting for a playoff spot, so it would be odd if they traded Cole now. Source
According to Mark Spector of Sportsnet, Phoenix Coyotes GM Don Maloney has told defenseman Derek Morris that he will be unable to sign the 30-year old. He has offered a one-year contract, but because of Phoenix's financial situation, there are unable to offer a longer term.

TSN is reporting that Tomas Kaberle has waived his no trade clause and given the Toronto Maple Leafs a list of 10 teams he is willing to be traded to. All the teams are in the Eastern Conference, and it's believed whichever team has Frantisek Kaberle could have the edge. Brochu's take: Eliminating the non-playoff teams, you can figure out exactly which teams are on the list. As for Frantisek, he remains with the Carolina Hurricanes organization, awaiting a potential recall on re-entry waivers.

NHL and Hockey Rumors for Feb 6, 2009
The Toronto Maple Leafs have placed defenseman Staffan Kronwall on re-entry waivers.
According to TSN, Tomas Kaberle and his agent may be preparing a list of teams that he is willing to be traded to. Also, it's possible that the Leafs could shop both forwards Mikhail Grabovski and Dominic Moore if they don't get them signed. Brochu's take: Grabovski will be signed, but it's unknown if Moore and his family history will have any impact on Burke's decision.
The two Ottawa Senators most likely to be traded at the deadline appear to be defenseman Filip Kuba and forward Chris Neil, who are both due to be unrestricted free agents this summer.
The Edmonton Journal is reporting a rumor that Erik Cole may be traded to the Boston Bruins. Oilers pro scout Dave Semenko has been watching the last two Boston Bruins games. There's speculation that the Oilers could be looking at forward Vladimir Sobotka, defenseman Matt Hunwick and Matt Lashoff. Brochu's take: Edmonton sees themselves as buyers, so I don't think they will trade Cole...just yet. And Boston are definitely playoff contenders, but giving up Hunwick would be a big mistake. Source
