There may be a ton of rumors and stuff getting out before this deadline which is tomorrow. Post what you hear.
when will stan bowman grab his sack and make a bold move? or is he just going to continue to ride on dale tallons core by adding asshat pieces around them.
One of Jaeckel's recent articles suggested that Bowman gets deals done, and then a higher-up usually tells the other team that they need to up their offer and it falls through. Wonder how much validity it has.
So far, it appears moving Patrick Sharp to center when he returns from what a source said is a shoulder injury — likely Thursday night against the Blues — is not one of those options. Sharp was the No. 2 center for much of 2009-10 when the Hawks won the Stanley Cup but has been at his preferred left wing almost exclusively since.
Sharp said coach Joel Quenneville has not approached him about making the move but he would embrace it if called upon.
"I'd go back there 100 percent," said Sharp, who was injured March 6. "We have four centers and guys sitting out who are capable of playing there but if Joel asked me I would do it in a heartbeat."
The trade of Philippe Paradis to the Lightning opens up a roster spot in the #Blackhawks' organization so something else could be brewing.
Not a trade, but a Trib article says that Sharp would be open to playing center when comes back. http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-75171890/
Blackhawks have trade Philip Paradis to Tampa Bay for the rights to a college defenseman. Chris Kuc is speculating that it could be a move to open a roster spot:

which is probably the reason they have been targeting some decent wingers.
When asked if Bollig was with the #IceHogs in Rockford, Ted Dent responded, “I can’t comment on that.” #Blackhawks
Ted Dent on Brandon Bollig being scratched tonight, "I don't know what's going on with Bollig. So, I can't comment on that." #Blackhawks
I would love to see Sharp back at the 2C. He can actually win a fair number of draws, one thing that Bolland certainly cannot. It would also open up the possibility of moving Bolland before the deadline tomorrow. Perhaps they could throw in Carcillo for a bag of pucks.
As for making a big trade, if giving up Saad is what it would take to land some of these players, I obviously say no. And from alot of the reports out there, many of the GMs they are dealing with are asking for him in return. **** that.
