Leafs Closing in on Jokinen

According to Howard Berger who I spoke with at length this morning the Leafs are close to a deal with the Tampa Bay Lightning that would see Pavel Kubina got to Tampa Bay for Jussi Jokinen. The Lightning have been trying to re-aquire D-man for sometime and the Leafs have been looking to land Jussi since his days in Dallas.

According to Berger the deal hinges on the decision of Mats Sundin and as soon as his decision is made the deal could be made immediately following that, assuming that Mats sign else where.

Now he said that the Leafs would get more than just Jokinen in the deal they could also get a pick or prospect.

Stay Tuned

Odd.. would seem to me that trading away Kubina would make cap room, so wether Sundin signs or not shouldn't matter.
