@TSNBobMcKenzie: DAL trades Alec Chiasson, Alex Guptill, Nicholas Paul and 2nd round pick in 2015 to OTT for Jason Spezza and Ludvig Karlsson. #TSN

@DFriedmanOnNYI: Dallas Stars are going for it. Man are they gonna be good next season.

There goes one Statsny landing spot. Great deal for the Stars. They are a fringe contender and they just shored up their team's biggest weakness, second line center.

Hearing the Pens are wanting to trade Paul Martin, tons of interest for him, going to try and trade him to a team wanting a Dman that strikes out on the couple good UFAs.

Ehrhoff to the Pens for 1 year $4 million? Does the Penguin front office have naked pictures of his mother or something?

@SBNationNHL: Pens reportedly sign Ehrhoff for one year, $4 million. Smart move by Jim Rutherford there.

@mirtle: The possession era begins in Pittsburgh? Ehrhoff should fit in very well there.

@MarkMaddenX: Ehrhoff > Niskanen. A better player. Has proven it.

Great signing, likely confirms what I said above, Paul Martin is being traded.

Says he wants a five year deal, then backs out to sign a one year? Where did Christian learn how to negotiate?

Also heard that TB offered Niskanen $7 x 7. Just a rumor, no sources.

The big fish has landed, though! Statsny to the Blues for 4 years $7 million. Seems like he could have gotten longer term.

Cammalieri signs with the Devils for $5 million over 5 years. And he was never heard from again.

Just awful but saw that too. Apparently between TB and WASH for him.

That is an awful signing at that price my god Tampa you are retarded if you do that.

Knew this was coming, just didnt know the term. 4 years at 7 mil is a good deal for the Blues.

He is a local kid and its been known he was coming home for a about a week now in hockey circles here in St Louis.

Of all the goings on so far this is the most surprising BY FAR.

The terms? Absolutely.

I don't get it at all for him and his agent.

But love it as a Pens fan. Upgrade over Niskanen.
