Is there a "no trade" zone during the AS break, like Christmas? If so, I could see where teams might want to get a deal done now and give the players some time to move to their new teams.

There is absolutely NO trade freeze during the All Star break. Trades could happen all week/weekend long.

GET SCHENN

Holmgren, realizing that the potential Luke Schenn for James van Riemsdyk deal has died a natural death, is believed to be pursuing a shorter-term option.

Interesting. Yesterday Morganti said that the Flyers are looking to add Weber before the TDL this year. I dont know how the hell they can pull that off. Suter seems more realistic as Nashville may want to get something for him before he becomes an UFA (and gets nothing).

No idea, but you are welcome to go with Burns, Potter, Blake, Klinger, Hunnicutt, or Winchester

Sure they're looking to add Weber. They've also looked at Schenn, Suter, Gleason and others. There's going to be a lot of teams interested. I bet we see a slew of deals after the first one goes down.

Obviously their are alot of guys who will become available but the Flyers from his knowledge/sources are the Flyers are loading up to make a run at Weber. All other options are fall back. He is the guy Homer wants to acquire but I dont see it happening.

I think the L.Schenn + for JVR is most likely because both teams are desperate, and can get equal value from the other team. Tornoto really needs a power forward and Flyers really need a defenseman... Just seems logical to scratch eachothers backs.

Tim seems to have just realized that Sestito, Zolnierczyk and Holmstrom were sent down because the Phantoms play 4 more games than the Flyers do this week

The + is what will be the dealbreaker in that trade. I dont know if Toronto is willing to overpay for JvR so that trade is going to be a tricky one to complete.
