Big trade coming P5

I am hearing that a BIG trade could be coming this weekend. A team from the East and a team from the West are in EPIC discussions right now.  2 or 3 star players are involved from what I am hearing.  Jamie Benn is NOT involved. The Leafs and Habs may be in on this big trade but do not count out Buffalo, Rangers, Pens, Devils or Caps.  Also the Isles, Flyers and Jets may be talking as well.  In the West...the Avs, Stars, Wings, Blue Jackets, Hawks, Canucks are talking to one another.  They are all on the same phone even and it is causing some confusion.  I called Patrick Kane and gave him money for a cab if he told me some inside Hawks info.  He told me that Toews is on his way out and so is Keith.  The Leafs will be acquiring both these guys for draft picks and prospects.  Burke is also close to acquiring both Crosby and Malkin and he could also get Ovechkin if the dominoes fall properly.  The Leafs are going for broke this year and it's CUP OR BUST.  Are the Leafs this year's Bruins?  More to come...P5

Gary Bettman just called me and told me to tell all of you that the NHL is talking about a brand new 100 game regular season schedule.  Apparently games will be played in Europe as well as Alaska.  Alaska is a big time untapped hockey market and it makes so much sense because they have alot of ice.  A brand new super mega igloo is currently being built right now in Alaska and it could be ready for NHL hockey as soon as December.  Stay tuned...P2

Chris Drury retired today but I am hearing he could be replacing Glen Sather as Rangers GM.  Slats has not won anything in a very long time and can his Rangers really compete with the mighty Flyers?  Drury brings instant credibility to this franchise and I am hearing that his good buddy Peter Forsberg could be signing with the Rangers as a player, coach, GM and part owner.  Has 1 player ever had 4 jobs at the same time?  EPIC.  P1

Drew Doughty WILL be either a Flyer or a Bruin by Labour Day.  Shea Weber WILL be either a Ranger or a Flyer by the day before Labour Day.  Zach Parise will be a Leaf as soon as you are done reading this blog.  It is HIGHLY IMMINENT.  Just because you don't see it on TSN does not mean it didn't happen.  I always break news before TSN.  This is why you give me all your money.  P5

I am hearing that Doug Gilmour could be replacing Ron Wilson as the next head coach of the Leafs.  Stay tuned and more to come later...P5

Is Doughty Kopitar's Coffey?

Hi everyone.  I was thinking the other day about Drew Doughty and how he could be the next Paul Coffey.  Anze Kopitar is comparable to Wayne Gretzky.  They both score goals and get assists and are key cogs for their teams. Kopitar is that 'once in a lifetime' player that all GM's would DIE to have on their team.  Coffey once scored 50 goals for the Oilers back in the 80s and I believe Doughty could do the same for the Kings very soon.  I am hearing he could sign a deal today which would be a game changer.  20 years and 200 million is what has been floating around my toilet this morning.  If this happens then the NHL will NEVER be the same again.  P3

Shea Weber has told his closest friends that he does not want to be a Nashville Predator for his entire career.  When he becomes a UFA, he will only play for 3 teams.  The Leafs, Rangers and Flyers are the ONLY teams Weber will even consider playing for.  Is Shea Weber David Legwand's Kevin Lowe?  P2

The Winnipeg Jets are very close to making a HUGE trade with a team from the East.  This could be a game changer in a BIG WAY.  Look for Montreal, Toronto or the Isles here.  Tavares?  It could happen.  Garth Snow wants to improve his team and Tavares could give him a pocket full of gold here.  Andrew Ladd is high on Snow's list.  Where there is smoke there is fire.  I can't say anything more than this because all players, agents and GM's trust me with their lives.  IF a trade happens it will be on Saturday because no one ever goes on the internet on the weekends.  P4

The Red Wings are in serious fire sale mode.  I don't see them making the playoffs at all.  Nashville and Chicago have passed them by in the Central and even St. Louis and Columbus are catching up to them.  Look for both Datsyuk and Zetterberg to be dealt by Christmas.  I am hearing that the Pens, Flyers, Rangers, Habs and Sabres are all interested.  Franzen could be a Penguin as soon as this weekend.  Holland really likes Kunitz.  P2

Are the Flyers this year's Bruins?  Are the Sharks this year's Canucks?  Is Paul Maclean this year's Todd McLellan?  What say you?  More to come...P3

Parise a Leaf? Doughty for Weber deal close? Stamkos dominoes...Yashin this year's Sundin?

Hi everyone.  I just sun burned my ass in Margate, New Jersey with the fake fam and am now ready to confirm with my toilet all kinds of mega super huge blockbuster rumours.  Zach Parise badly wants out of New Jersey and Lou Lamoriello really wants to get rid of Parise.  Kovalchuk is the main guy now in New Jersey and the sooner Parise can be traded then the better off everyone in the Devils organization will be.  I am hearing the Leafs are the frontrunners in this but do not count out the Sabres.  They have all kinds of Cap space even though their payroll right now is around 100 million dollars.  They could send Ryan Miller down to the AHL and they would be cap compliant.  Then they call him up for the playoffs and win the Cup. Has this ever been done before?  I am hearing Kadri and Schenn would be going to the Devils for Parise but do not be surprised if Phaneuf goes as well.  P3

Drew Doughty and Shea Weber will be traded for one another.  It makes so much sense.  The Kings need a guy like Weber who can blast the puck and scare goalies.  The Preds need a guy like Doughty who can think the game at a much higher level than anyone else ever.  This could be done on the weekend and NHL GM"s love making their trades when no one goes on the internet.  I am also hearing the Leafs, Rangers and Flyers are ready to submit offer sheets to both Weber and Doughty should the Kings-Preds deal falls through.  P2

Steve Stamkos is on the block folks.  Even though he recently signed a new 5 year contract extension, this is only the tip of the iceberg.  Stamkos feels disrespected in Tampa and he needs a change of scenery.  I am told that Paul Holmgren has the best trade offer right now.  It is so good that Yzerman may not be able to resist pulling the tirigger.  Briere is most likely involved but so too is Van Riemsdyk.  The Pens may be willing to move Malkin to get Stamkos.  Stammer and Sid together?  Wow that would be so amazing.  It would be the best 1-2 punch ever.  P4

Alexei Yashin's agent, Marc Gandler, just told me that as many as all 30 NHL teams have expressed some kind of interest in signing his client.  I am told that he has narrow it down to 16 teams and that 8 of them are in the East.  The other 8 are in the West with 4 of those teams in the Central and 2 of them in the Pacific.  Detroit is VERY interested as they need to replace Kris Draper.  Draper was pencilled in to be the Wings #1 centre ahead of both Datsyuk and Zetterberg on the depth chart.  P1

Well folks, as I sit here in my Transformers underwear on the beach in Margate, New Jersey...something has occurred to me...the Winnipeg Jets could win the Stanley Cup this year.  I mean if they can score goals and not give up goals then they will be very hard to match up against.  I mean look at Boston.  Who would have thought they could win the Cup?  It may very well happen in Winnipeg.  Good for those die-hard fans who have waited such a long time for NHL hockey to return.  I know when I saved the Nashville Predators that I felt a warm sensation in my heart that I did mankind a big service.  I still feel bad for Billy Joe Jimbob and Crazy Uncle Eddie in Atlanta.  The 2 season ticket holders who had to see their team leave.  Don't worry guys.  Atlanta WILL have an NHL team again within the next 4 years.  I am told they will get a team before Quebec does.  P4

Peklund is back! New bullshit hockey rumours! P5

Hi folks.  Peklund is back!  I am once again ready to post bullshit hockey rumours for all of you to enjoy.  Or not enjoy.  I don't care!  My success rate is still higher than Eklund's.  Well I will not make you wait any longer!  Lets get to the rumours! 

I just got off my Fisher Price Walkie Talkie with some valued sources of mine.  Now as all of you well know...all players, agents and GM'S trust me with their lives.  So I can tell you something but it may not necessarily mean it will lead to something much bigger I am told.  Shea Weber hates Nashville and they hate him.  Drew Doughty can't wait to not be a King.  The 2 teams have been in SERIOUS talks ever since Draft Day.  A deal was almost done but the Kings pulled out because the Preds wanted Ryan Smyth.  Dean Lombardi ended up trading Smyth back to Edmonton.  But now the Preds really want to rid themselves of Weber and focus on keeping Suter.  So right now I am hearing a possible Weber for Doughty trade which may also involve some other key pieces going each way.  Dustin Brown is in play here.  So is David Legwand.  A trade could happen as soon as Saturday.  Teams love doing deals on the weekend because no one ever goes on the internet when the news breaks.  It makes things much easier for all those who are involved.  Stay tuned...P3

Ever since the Stanley Cup Final was over, Roberto Luongo has been in play all over the league.  Dave Nonis is willing to take just about anything to be rid of Luongo.  I am hearing the Sens have serious interest and could be trading Spezza.  The Oilers are also in on Spezza.  Hemsky could be traded but with Cogliano being moved, I am now hearing that they would like to add a star player to compliment Taylor Hall.  Tyler Seguin could be moved from the Bruins because he is not getting enough playing time in Boston.  Chiarelli is very scared when Seguin's contract is up years from now.  Just like Stamkos in Tampa.  His 5 year deal basically wrote him a one way ticket out of Tampa.  Seguin for Hemsky makes perfect sense for both sides.  P2

Tampa still wants to trade Stamkos.  The Flyers are the frontrunners here and Yzerman really likes Claude Giroux.  Giroux is that once in a lifetime player which all coaches can only dream about.  Stamkos for Giroux could happen as soon as Monday.  I am also hearing that Chris Pronger is personally calling and texting Stamkos and that the 2 have grown very close this summer.  Pronger even named his parrot STAMMER.  It just seems like a match made in heaven here. Stamkos would easily score 100 goals playing with Van Rymsdyk.  P4

Brian Burke has been burning up the phone lines all summer and I am told to expect 1 if not 2 major blockbuster trades before Training Camp starts.  The Leafs desperately need a number one centre as they see Tim Connolly as more of a #2 guy.  I am hearing Joe Thornton could be traded for the right price.  The Leafs are willing to give up Kadri and Schenn. The holdup right now is that Schenn is a RFA.  Once he is signed, we could see Thornton headed to Toronto.  I am also hearing the Sharks may include Patrick Marleau but the Leafs would have to give up Phaneuf.  You never know here folks.  Where there is smoke, there is fire.  P1
