I love this day every year! NHL Trade Deadline 08

I geek out every year when this day comes around and with the coverage online you can’t help but notice the change the NHL has made since the lockout ended. If possible I would be sitting at home with my laptop checking out trade rumor sites and watching ESPN. instead I have the live audio feeds and trade ticker from tsn.ca.

I admit, I’m addicted to the trade deadline day. This is like NFL Draft day to football fans. I will suck in as much coverage as possible.  Unfortunately, this happens during the day while I’m at work so no Trade Deadline party. Trust me, if this was on a Saturday I would have something.

I’m not expecting much out of the Pens today for deals. If anyone goes I expect Sabourin and a draft pick for a D man. Overall everyone is watching to see where Marian Hossa is going. So far things have been quiet with a couple small name trades and I don’t expect new to pick up until 1pm EST. Listening to Hockey This Morning on XM today they reported that Hossa was told not to attend this morning’s practice. The ironic thing, Montreal is rumored as a tea trying to land him and that is who Atlanta is playing tonight. Imagine that, you wake up on one team and that night you just walk down the hallway to play on another.

I’ll update if the Pens make a move until then keep watching tsn.ca
