I feel like us discussing the thread title would probably be a better use of our time than discussing Nash rumors.

Current thread title is nice but have to agree BR had a great suggestion.

Howson says Mid July?? The fool realizes no one is going to hold the cap space for that long right?? IMO sather Moves on next weekend when free agency begins. Once the Rangers move on its over.

If they can land Ryan with Dubinsky, Anisimov, Del Zotto I will be fine with it. If they move Kreider, Stepan I cry, lol.........well I cry until Ryan scores a ton of goals that is

Agreed. We should discuss the title instead itd be more worthwhile. Howson has become the laughing stock of the nhl.

I'd rather have perry over the other two.

[RGY]

Dubinsky, Anisimov, Thomas, 1st round pick, 2nd round pick '13

I get more of the idea that the Agent is going to press Howson to get a deal done sooner rather than later.

[Fitzy]

I wonder if the Sens get Nash.

And I wonder if they're stupid enough to trade Michalek as part of the deal.

No doubt. But it seems odd that Howson would speak right after.

Since all indications are that a deal is not close right now (Howson saying he will wait til mid-July, if not later) I have no idea what he would be speaking about today except to say that Nash will not be dealt at the draft.

EDIT - Unless Howson is trying to get him to waive (with a deal in place) to a team not on his "list", like the Sens. Then he could be on the move today. As Fitzy speculates.

Thought he already said no to Ottawa

[GregSirico]

I will be SHOCKED if he is on CBJ by tomorrow.

I would be more then shocked. I gotta say it's 5% that he is still on CBJ after 11pm tomorrow.

You know Howson would ask for Karlsson to be included.
