The End Of J-Bo To LEafs?

Looks like I should have listened to you fans. Hearing from a guy that Darren Dreger has reported this as false. That does not mean it wont happen but dont hold your breath. SORRY FOR EVERYTHING IVE CAUSED YOU.

Mathieu Schneider And Selanne Situations

This article is to clear up the whole Schneider Situation and also Selannes situation:

Schneider Situation:
The Ducks are trying 100% to get Schneider moved before training camp. Many offers have come in, they are waiting for the biggest one. The teams creating most buzz around the organization according to a guy inside the organization are: New Jersey,LA,Washington,Dallas And Montreal.
That does not meen he will go to one of those teams but those are the most talked about teams.

Selanne Situation:
this is small update but hey ITS AN UPDATE
Apparently Selanne is started to burn his Bridges with the Ducks because the team simply cannot reach him.

Even more on Bouwmeester!


I know we all just want this to get done so we can stop talking about it but more has come through on the J-Bo trade. As we have been saying for a few days now people really feel that this is the "HOMERUN" deal that Fletcher was talking about.

Tonight I have solid info on the deal and the possible players involved. As RenD mentioned it is looking more and more like this deal will go down before training camp.

The players I have heard as of now are as follows:

To Florida: McCabe, Steen, White/Stralman, and a cond 1st round pick 2010

To Toronto: Bouwmeester, Booth, 2nd rounder in 09

AND ONCE AGAIN THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED SO STOP FREAKING OUT WERE GIVING YOU NAMES AREN'T WE??

I said tonight that the deal may get done closer to Kubinas deadline or just before training camp. I think this would be a solid deal for both teams. Mind you McCabe would have to agree to be waived and some people around the NHL feel like he is leaning closer to doing that.

Stay Tuned everyone

SORRY FROM SCOTTY.......DONT MEAN J-BO RUMOR FALSE

Hey everyone,

On Behalf of myself id like to apologize to the website, the visitors and the bloggers on this site for the big stir ive caused with the whole Jay Bouwmeester to Leafs rumor. However it has not been announced as false. The rumor is still out there. I feel that you may find us fake and phony thats your opinion and im sorry if you feel that way. We are just trying to give all of you a hockey site to go to where you can talk discuss and even hear rumors whether you think there false or true.

P.S. TO ALL WHO KEEP REPEATING IT WE NEVER CALLED THIS A "DONE DEAL"

More On Bouwmeester To Leafs

I have received more information on the Bouwmeester situation. More people are now saying that this deal is in the works as we speak, could get done anytime really. Bouwmeester to TO is likely to happen. I talked to Baltimore but of course he would not say anything, so i got no information from him. I have been told however that the rumored package is MUCH bigger than we think, and there would also be a player coming back along with J-Bo. I am still looking into it more to try and get some names for you guys..

Rumor: Gaborik to Carolina?



The rumour would send Justin Williams, Frantisek Kaberle, prospect Jamie Mcbain and a 1st round draft pick to Minnesota for Marian Gaborik and likely a draft pick or a prospect. The Wild continue to shop Gaborik around the NHL, as Gaborik has made it clear to Risebrough that he intends to move on to a more offense-minding team after the end of his contract after next season.

The Wild would prefer to trade him prior to the start of the season so they can move on with a complete line-up during traning camp. The Hurricanes believe that Staal and Gaborik could be one of the most top duos in the NHL. Ray Whitney would likely complete this line.

As per hockeyleaks.com

Buffalo Re-Sign Numminen

The Sabres have re-signed D Teppo Numminen, terms of the deal is not yet known. Good signing for Buffalo.

Conflicting reports on the Bouwmeester to the Leafs deals. I got some phone calls this morning saying it's close, but this afternoon i have received a few calls saying there is no truth to this at all at the moment. That a deal is no where near being "imminent". But i will be looking into that more, I am awaiting a call from Baltimore, whether he will answer my questions or not is up in the air right now, but i will try.

Sabres Resign Teppo

The Buffalo Sabres Have Resigned D-man Teppo Numminen.

Sabres sign enforcer Tyler Bouck


Buffalo Sabres GM Darcy Regier announced today the Sabres have signed unrestricted free agent forward Tyler Bouck. Bouck, 28, captained the Portland Pirates of the AHL last season.
A native of Camrose, Alberta, Bouck has 12 points (4 goals and 8 assists) in 91 career NHL games. He also racked up 93 penalty minutes with Vancouver, Phoenix and Dallas.

Trade still coming but when?


The Deal is so close you can taste it! I have sent a email to Bryon Baltimore the agent for Bouwmeester and all I got back was "No comment". Now that means 1 of 2 things that the trade is done and were waiting on the NHL or there are other players and he couldn't confirm anything.

I have heard this several times in the past week including from precious Eklund and his damn Dog.

I can remember the specific post "Leafs leading way in Bouwmeester Sweeps" Anyway we here at Hockeybums don't have to lie or hide our identities because we are better then that. If you don't like what we right then don't read it but I don't know if you have noticed but in the past several weeks we have gotten and called more things right then any other website I have seen.

From the Leclaire signing to a few trades they were all called here 1st.

As for this trade we have stated that it wasn't confirmed in the posting and at this point its just chatter. But if it is wrong we will post that because we aren't afraid of being wrong thats what happens in the world of hockey.

Now back to the trade I have heard several names thrown around including Booth, Steen, Stralman, White and of course Bouwmeester and McCabe.

So until we have confirmation don't go blowing your tops!

By the way I am 25 thats not a kid.

Lightning Update...Not Really?!?!?

Haven't posted in a while. Just wanted to say that there is nothing going on in Lightning Land. The rookie camp just ended a few days ago and Stamkos had 2 goals and 3 assists in the final scrimmage. Other than that, the search for a veteran defenseman is going very slow with no real word of anything substantial. There have been some rumblings of Jokinen being shipped to Toronto or Nashville, but nothing has come out of it. These are the dog days of summer and news is very slow right now...stay tuned for a whole lot of nothing for a while.
