Sergei Federov is being shopped, with Edmonton and Detroit possibilities. Detroit will likely make a trade or two in the next few weeks as they have a cap crisis.

In a 2005 study published by the journal Nature, researchers at Durham University in England concluded that, across a range of sports, we found that wearing red is consistently associated with a higher probability of winning. The researchers also suggested that red's effect may subconsciously intimidate opponents in athletic contests, especially when the athletes are equal in skill and strength.

That second sentence is hilarious in conjunction with the first. We have a cap crisis so we add a $6M/yr player?

Agreed, Detroit I dont think is as bad off as Anaheim when it comes to the cap but I doubt they have room for Feds salary.

If we could get him back for cheaper, along with not being able to sign Datsyuk, I'd say lets do it, because he is dependable enough to score the goals we need and he is a great 2 way player still. He could also maybe be a little bit better under Babcock, and possibly be a better player since I'm sure he knows the crap he pulled on us a few years ago was bull. The fans would give him a hard time at first which would be a good thing because he would play 10 times harder in order to gain the love back. But this is only a deal I'd say if Datsyuk is heading out. But I do hope we get datsyuk back because he is younger and has the potential to be just as good, if not better, than Feds.

Getting Fedorov back might be somewhat of an incentive for Datsyuk to resign with us.

Indeed. Didn't Feds have a Hart, Selke, Pearson as well as a runner up to Wayne F'in Gretzy in the scoring race by the time he was 27?

That's quite possible the stupidest thing I've ever heard. Let me guess, we'll trade Datsyuk for the 36 year old Federov? Fantastic. Then we should trade Zetterberg to free up room for Messier.

Agreed. I hope we can put this rumour to rest. It's almost as bad as that "Zetterberg for Belfour" trade I was seeing on other message boards.
