2009 NHL Trade Deadline Thread

So, the Wings will not be getting Vokoun. Eklund sucks.

Why oh why would the Panthers who look very likely to make the playoffs, who have said they may not trade Jay Bo an unrestricted free agent, trade Vokoun who has the second best save percentage in the league to Thomas and also two years left as stated? WHY? Zero chance, Florida has absolutely NO reason to do it. It just won't happen. Eklund may be known for fake rumors but this rumor isn't even remotely feasible along with being untrue. I'm sure the Wings would LIKE Vokoun. But yeah, nuff said.

Why oh why would the Canadiens who look very likely to make the playoffs trade Jaroslav Halak who has won four straight games making 40+ saves in three of them with Carey Price looking pathetic most of the season and surrendering the #1 job let go of their starting goaltender? I have said the Habs needed a veteran all year but Halak is a season-saver at this point for that crap team. Montreal is barely in the playoff picture.

Goalies available realistically:

Legace

Clemmenson

Lehtonen

Biron

Gerber

Anderson

Leclaire

Ersberg (?)

Toskala (?)

Fernandez (big maybe)

Khabibulin (big maybe)

The Caps should make a pitch for a goalie, Theodore will lose it for them this playoffs.

We potentially have our first deal of the day pending league calls.

Ottawa trades Vermette to Columbus for Pascal Leclaire and a 2nd round pick.

2005-06, Vermette=too much to trade for goaltender that would've helped Senators in year they were expected to contend but couldn't due to their starting goaltender being injured half the time...2008-09, Vermette=worth trading for a guy from what has been one of league's worst teams who is injured half the time
