The latest is the two sides are likely to make one more big effort either tomorrow or Friday to get things done...Remember...the Leafs were adamant about this being over by the end of July...the end of August is now upon us and staring us down...
On Laine....
The islanders and Jets are not getting very far in any way of trade talks, with one source telling me "at this point at least, the Canadiens got further along....and they werent far enough..."
On Boeser...
The Canucks may have turned down a deal with the Devils I am told..That deal would have included Pavel Zacha....I feel Boeser stays and signs...but offers continue to come in...
On Perlini....
The Hawks and Brenden Perlini continue to work on a deal...It feels close...
On Jake Gardiner...
