LOS ANGELES KINGS- OFFERING JACK JOHNSON, ALEX FROLOV, 5TH OVERALL PICK IN THE 2009 DRAFT, 96TH OVERALL PICK IN THE 2009 DRAFT(PICARD INCLUDED)

ST.LOUIS BLUES- OFFERING PATRIK BERGLUND, BARRET JACKMAN, AARON PALUSHAJ

SAN JOSE SHARKS- OFFERING MILAN MICHALEK, MARC-EDOUARD VLASIC, RILEY ARMSTRONG

EDMONTON OILERS- OFFERING DUSTIN PENNER, TOM GILBERT, RILEY NASH, 10TH OVERALL PICK IN THE 2009 DRAFT(SMITH INCLUDED)

PITTSBURGH PENGUINS- OFFERING CHRIS KUNITZ, MAX TALBOT, ALEX GRANT, 30TH OVERALL PICK(KELLY INCLUDED)

NEW YORK RANGERS- OFFERING SCOTT GOMEZ, RYAN CALLAHAN, DAN GIRARDI, 19TH OVERALL PICK, 80TH OVERALL PICK

To Buffalo: Daniel Briere

To Philadelphia: Tim Connolly

For Buffalo: They lose Tim Connolly, who has great potential WHEN in the lineup, which is the big question mark for this injury plagued center. They get Daniel Briere back who was one of the most popular Sabres of all time. They just have to take on his large salary ($8, $7, $7, $7 for the next 4 years) which would basically lock him up as a Sabre for the rest of his career.

For Philadelphia: They are able to release themselves of Briere and his cap hit and bring in a Connolly, a center with very similar playmaking ability, but has a big question mark on if he can stay in the lineup.

Winner of the trade: Wash. Buffalo gets their fan favorite back and can afford to take on the salary, while Philadelphia gets a good center in return for Briere while freeing themselves of cap space to make room for other moves in the offseason.

To Ottawa: Milan Hejduk and 1st round draft pick (3rd overall – Matt Duchene – C – Brampton OHL)

To Colorado: Dany Heatley and 1st round draft pick (9th overall – Dmitry Kulikov – D – Drummondville QMJHL )

I am going to start doing random rumors each day just for fun during the offseason. 90% of them will probably have zero chance of happening ever, but its cool to think about players on different teams. For draft picks, i am looking at mock drafts as to who will most likely be drafted then.

For Ottawa: They are forced to move Heatley and Colorado is one of the few teams that can offer a package suitable to the starpower that Heatley has. They bring in Hejduk which is a decent replacement for Heatley and also pick up the 3rd overall pick in return for their 9th overall. I would rather have Heatley if I were the Sens, but since they are forced into this, Colorado seems to have the best possible potential offer.

For Colorado: Heatley is a star player that you can build a team around. Heatley will only be 28 this year and is still in his prime. The 3rd overall pick is not as much of a sure thing as the 1st and 2nd (Tavares and Hedman) so moving down to the 9th pick is not as bad as it may seem. The only huge question mark is taking on Heatley’s contract which is basically $8 Million per year until 2012/2013. Heatley is a guarenteed 40 goal scorer and would look great on Sakic or Stastny’s wing.

Heatley ($8.00 M) > Hejduk ($4.00 M) by a small margin

3rd overall > 9th overall by a small margin as well

Winner of the trade: Even trade, good for both teams

Added Note: Hejduk is beyond loved as a fan favorite in Colorado, so expect Colorado fans to be very unhappy if this were ever to happen.
