Just Eklund, not trying to ruffle any feathers here, but this sounds a little more "viable" than most. |

A good site is www.nhlnumbers.com but since its the offseason they havent updated it. During the season, the site is gold medal worthy. |
Couple of times ive heard Staal would go to the Kings or maybe the Pens even trade a couple prospects and a roster guy and then the Pens dump Orpik to Buffalo. Completly hypothetical but Johnson's name is being tied here alot lately.
