Although trading has slowed down to a crawl, the last trade that was posted was the 71st since Aug 1. That's alot of trades imo, I made six of them myself, and at present involved in talks with 2 GM's. Salary is an issue, for some of us, I think the trade deadline will be heavy.

Yeah i think the number of deals done in the summer kind of handcuffed everyone and set up the buyers and the sellers months ahead of time.
I actually think we are going to see a releatively quiet deadline, with 10-15 trades max.

It will be an interesting deadline, for sure.I tend to agree with Monty.
With my latest deal, if I got the count right, that's 12 deals for the Flames. Woah! Some of them were admittedly minor ones though.

Trades are extremely difficult right now because of the cap. The increase may bring about some activity. Last year I think I burned myself by trading for Malkin at the deadline... it seemed like a great idea but he just didn't fit in and I gave up a lot. I may stay out of it this year!

Well, a 5-3 loss to the Sharks... And it looks like the special team is what made the difference again; with the Sharks scoring twice on the PP... Oh possibly the goalie change... lol

Just because I'm sure he'll be easy to over-look on my woeful squad, I'm nominating John Carlson for the James Norris Trophy as the league's best defenseman. 45 points in 45 games, 3rd in the league among defensemen, playing with our talent base is amazing. Our leading scorer only has 13 goals. He leads the Canucks in scoring by 17 points! Hard to believe I haven't been flooded with offers for him, considering he's been on the block all season.

Trouba has been traded to Philly, as soon as I can make some cap space for him, the Isles and I will send it in. Jacob happy to come to a Cup contender, we are just as happy to have him. He'll play with Niskanen on the 1st line. de Haan and Stralman the 2nd. We''ll still be looking to add scoring at the deadline.

Biggest surprise on my team has been Vermette, as he leads the league in FO'S, and with a 69SC has 17 goals.

Krejci headed to Philly, should be here in time for my next game against the team he was traded from.

Looks like the East buyers are getting serious for their cup runs. Should be fun to watch!

With the news of their GM leaving the team the mighty TB Lightning have been on fire!
Third win in a row now with Jared Cowen burning his old team (sorry Ray) with 2 goals! I would have been surprised if at the start of the season you told me that Cowen would have 2 goals all year let alone in one game.
If I would have known that all it took for these guys to win was me leaving I would have left long ago!

I might as well had the original Ocho Cinco in goal today rather than my good ole Chad Johnson - 4 goals allowed on 14 shots...still somehow got a point out of it...
