Two things dominate my inbox this morning.

1. Everyone from players to GMs to owners are amazed by the the depth that the teams have in camp. And it all basically comes to one simple statement. Size doesn't matter. Many players that were destined as career AHLers and European League players are quick enough to be in the new NHL. So there have never been bigger battles for spots.

2. Jack Johnson is going to get traded. The Hurricanes are calling around and quite a few teams are seriously interested. The Hurricanes are looking for a 3-4 dman and a first line forward. Teams that are interested include Pittsburgh, Toronto, Minnesota, Philadelphia, Boston, the New York Rangers and Detroit. Of course all 30 teams are interested, but these are just the teams that I have heard about. I have a feeling that the calm and easy September that I anticipated just went "poof."

More later of course..
