Note: The Olympic trade freeze lifts tonight at 12:00 am.

I guess we will find out then if it is true or not. I wonder if we will see any trades go through right after the freeze ends or if everything will happen on deadline day.

Yeah, well, I Don't expect anything to happen immediately, but who knows.

I made a comment asking NTR to talk about the Havlat situation, and he put this up on the site:

Martin Havlat's name continues to come up, and the Senators would be interested in making a Jokinen for Havlat swap. However, Martin Havlat is currently on the IR indefinitely, which means the Senators cannot deal him until he is healthy and back in the line-up. This means the Senators would have to wait to make their move. Ottawa may wait until the deadline, when they would likely have Havlat back into their line-up, and then make the deal. However, with a few other teams who would love to add a players of Jokinen's quality, the Senators may be pressured to work around that to land him. Other teams to mention, once again, are Montreal and Calgary.

But according to the Ottawa Sun, Muckler offers Keenan Havlat and a 1st rounder for Jokinen. In fact, this is a silly deal. Havlat needs a set-up man and Jokinen needs someone who can finish. This trade really solves nothing for both teams.

IMPORANT TO NOTE that players on the IR cannot be dealt, and currently Martin Havlat is out indefinitely.

Boy this could get interesting. What do you guys see happening in MTL?

I think the entire Lost idea has something to do with heaven-hell. Everybody has a dark past. It must mean something.
