"And I'd definitely like to come back to Montreal. They're all about the young guys, but I can help in all different ways. And I can still play. I have a lot of energy."

TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger reported via Twitter on Monday that while the 40-year-old winger enjoyed his stint with the Phildelphia Flyers last season, he plans on testing free agency.

I would trade for any one of the following:

Roy
Pominville
Stafford
Myers

[Tim.D]

J. Staal, Douglas Murray, and Rick Nash all on the market, and teams are taking offers.
Harding in negotiations with Minny, expected to sign there.
PK Subban included in deal to get Oiler's first overall, but doubt EDM will do it.

Rumor was correct on Harding

Renaud Lavoie via twitter: Sources in New York are saying that it appears P.A. Parenteau is headed to free agency.

[Wings_Toledo]

That would be absolute robbery for CBJ if that trade occurred. Glen Sather would likely be run out of town by an armed mob.

• Jordan Staal rejected 10-year mega-deal in PIT.

According to some and surprise surprise the Penguins will be after Suter and Parise too. Much like the whole league but the Penguins do offer more than most clubs as playing with Malkin and Crosby would be something...

If they pull this off, it wouldn't even be fair:

Letang - Suter

Parise as Crosbys Wing holy damn that team would be set for another decade and easily be the team to beat. Looking at cg the Penguins are having like 14,7 million of cap space and still some guys to become UFAs, damnit this will be an absolute beating war for Suter and Parise.

As someone mentioned in another post, they would be like the Blackhawks. All that money tied up in a few players, no depth on the 3rd or 4th lines.

[chances14]

[CheliFan89]

If the Penguins land both of them, I'm going to have a stroke. I can't stand them or their fans already.
