Thanks. Do you want me to post rumor information here on in my thread in the Rumor Mill?

Due to the Hall Gill trade, Erik Cole will wear the "A" for Montreal.

Discussion regarding rumors on the trade deadline are kind of a whole new animal. It might be best to keep that in the rumor mill, but if people post in either of our threads rumors about what might happen, its not the end of the world unless it gets out of hand. There's a section obviously for that, but a comment here and there isn't going to invoke the police.

Cheers Tim and sorry for being late this year.

I'll do a daily post here with some rumors, and I'll edit that post unless something major turns up. For now:

-Smyth won't be traded anymore, but heard Detroit was perusing him.

-DD reports via Twitter that Detroit is in on Kubina. Deal could be done soon. Philly another candidate.

im still hearing that Detroit is scouting the Sabres hard.

Gaustad, Boyes and Roy are all possible targets there.

Ive also heard the Kubina deal may actually materialize in the next 48 hours.

also just heard that the Flyers are reportedly in discussions with CBJ for Nash...

Kubina? I'm alright with that, but for nothing more than a 3rd round draft pick or you're gettin' robbed!

Agreed. He seems to offer a very limited upside (powerplay) so we better not give up much for him. I'm sure he'd be fine as a bottom pairing defenseman, but nothing more.

Colorado is looking to deal defensemen. Shane O'Brien is a UFA at the end of the season. I say we pick him up for a draft pick, see how he plays with Ericsson on the 3rd pairing, and if he floats, get him signed on for next year. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like Commodore is gonna see much more playing time, especially if we acquire another defenseman. To be honest, I'd rather have O'Brien than Commodore. I've also heard Ryan Wilson could be dealt out of Denver. He's a little more versatile. I'd be happy with either of the two, but the question is, although the rivalry is long gone, would Detroit even make a trade with Colorado?

The #Redwings were going hard after both Gill and Kubina and lost out on both. I suspect that Ken Holland won't let this deter his d-hunt.

from michael grossi of the 4th period

who is kenny going after? so glad he didn't get either of these pylons.

Kubina would've been such a nightmare

So you the saw this guy tweeting that bull on twitter?!?

I have to say AGAIN. Our D is the strongest part of the team now, and to try to improve it means we lose either a forward or a defenseman when we are playing better than anyone else. It would be FOOLISH to make a move, and depth is not needed.

We have Smith, Exelby, and Janik all ready to step in if we need them. How many d can be traded away before we realize we don't need anyone, especially at these crazy high prices for so-so players.

Everyone who wants us to make a trade, better not complain if Kindl becomes Quincey or Emmerton becomes Fleichman.

KENNY, JUST SAY NO TO DEPTH TRADES!!!

Unless you can pull off a true top six goal scorer who will shoot first and skate... just walk away.

I truly believe our options are so few and the prices are so high, we can't be involved in the deadline this year. We need to let the farm grow, and the youngsters on the roster prove themselves. Free agency the next two years has too much potential and too much on the line to risk our own adding pieces now.

i would take wilson, he has had some concussion issues but when he is on his game he is a better hitter than kronwall.

I agree, and I am all for signing Suter and Parise over the summer, but damn I wish we could get someone to help this team on the road and their power play...I just don't see our team getting past San Jose or Vancouver if they stay pat. I hope I am wrong, but they aren't gonna win ALL their home games, they need to get that road and power play addressed....

See, here's my concern about free agency; I'm all for Suter and Parise too, I think everyone can agree on that. The thing is, does anyone really think prices are going to go down this summer? After the whole Richards circus, I have to think that a) some team is going to be absolutely willing to give up assets to get the negotiating rights in both cases, and b) some teams are going to offer ridiculous money. I have to see it taking 8 million+ per year to sign one of these guys. The way contracts have gone in recent years, I just don't understand how anyone can realistically expect otherwise. And much as I love the Wings, I really don't see this "they'll want to play for Detroit because it's Detroit" being grounded in reality.

I understand and in principle support the "we don't overpay" mantra. My worry, though, is that Holland and we as fans are going to have to adjust what we think of as an "overpayment" for a top free-agent or top player in a trade. Maybe it's just me.

I agree and see your concern. I think if Holland is to land one or both Parise and Suter he is gonna have to offer a ton of money and a long contract. But I surely hope he does and doesn't have that "We're Detroit" attitude, because it hasn't been working with the UFA's. Of course a Stanley Cup victory would make it a bit easier to sign them, and maybe even at a bit of a discount. Example being, Brad Stuart and Marion Hossa, both of which were UFA's after Detroit's 2008 win, and both of which took discounts to come/stay here. But ya, offer both $8M for at least 5 years apiece and if someone else gives them more money, so be it. At least Holland wouldn't be low-balling them...

Yep, totally agree. Give a realistic offer. If Philly, for example, wants to go nuts again and blow up their team to offer $100M over 10 years... well, good luck with that; I'm absolutely fine with not trying to compete with outright fricking crazy.

I also agree though that if we could put up a cup win, or even just get them to Detroit, Holland and co. could bring them around to staying here for a reasonable rate. You never know.
