The Penguins have been seeing a lot of money fall away due to long term IR and I am starting to hear strong rumors that they have interest in Eric Staal. It takes a lot of creative accounting, and a deal like this could not happen until much later....you would assume...However, Rutherford is as good as any GM when it comes to making pieces fit and moving player for player...Also Rutherford and Staal are quite familiar with each other...

I am hearing the Bruins are looking EVERYWHERE for D help, and the latest team they have had discussions with is Carolina....A source tells me this isn't "a top four young D-man, but rather some depth and experience..."
