Just got to Pitt. I'm sure rumors are flying around. First one i got as Wrote in my blog yesterday, Stalberg in play. Eastern Conf??

Stalberg in play and potentially to the East.

[Blueline Bomber]

Carolina. They'll grab Staal, Stoll and Stalberg in the same offseason.

[Brian Boyle]

Dubinsky for Stalberg and a pick.

[veedubn1]

smart move.

By moving the juggernaut that is Stalberg to the East, Chicago doesn't have to worry about facing those magic hands many times each season.

Chicago can't afford that right now.

That would really change the landscape of the east though.

Too bad we're fairly deep at LW. I like Stalberg a lot.

[MillarWithASave]

I call Santorelli or maybe Upshall for Stalberg.

[Shaun]

for Tim Thomas

[PADevil3034]

I would want him in NJ if Sykora's done.

Hawks fans interested in any of our D?

[Hank Z]

Why do they want to trade him?

Cheap contract and he had a decent season, but it doesn't seem like they'd get a whole lot for him a year away from being a UFA.

He can and has played RW before. I feel like a lot of his 'prettier' goals were from RW.

Anyways, I hope this isn't true unless the return is another top 6 winger. While Stalberg's kinda in between a 3rd and 2nd liner right now, if he can improve from last year, he'll be a very good option in our top 6. And he comes dirt cheap.

Hoping Montador and/or Hjalmarsson get traded first. Stalberg should only be traded if the return is just too good to pass up.

Edit: Agree with Gootie... Rogers loves trade rumors and will often stretch them to be more of a rumor than they actually are.

Im calling NYI for Josh Bailey.

Grabner-X-Stalberg has to be the fastest line in the league no matter who is centering it. Fantastic #2 line.

Bailey fits the center need that chicago needs. Both are young but not overly good.

[Blackhawkswincup]

Columbus fans will be happy if he is moved out

Hopefully he is gone ,, He is pending UFA next summer and I would like to see the Hawks move him while his value is high

He also was MIA again in playoffs (Eventually getting demoted back to 4th line)

Bailey is horrid at faceoffs and horrid in general

No thanks

[Duke89]

What would the price be?

[Judrix]

very much against moving him. Solid player worth less than $1m.

[Kessely Snipes]

I really liked what I saw from Stalberg when he was still with the Leafs.

How much better has he gotten in Chicago?

[WarriorofTime]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooo

Streaky player still has major issues defensively and will be UFA in a summer

Value may never be higher ,, Pull the Trigger Stan
