There's a good chance, with only 13 games remaining, that this deadline will have a more defined group of sellers and buyers. It could also be much easier for GMJN to accept the role of seller should the season continue down it's current path. I guess we'll have to see.

We'll have to see about. It may be "easier" but that doesn't mean JN gets to become a seller and it's been weird how he has approached the role of a seller. During the deadline of 2009-10, team was clearly out of a playoff spot with no plausible chance of making it, and somehow he could not or did not (don't know which) move Mike Modano when WSH expressed interest. And the years we were still in the hunt for a playoff spot in 2010-11 and 2011-12, he tried shopping Richards around the deadline in 2010-11 and even had a deal in place before Richards nixed it and successfully sold Grossmann to Philly around the deadline of 2011-12.
