So the current rumor is that the Sharks are willing to trade Vesa Toskala to the Senators for Martin Havlat, but there’s a hangup. Havlat only has one year left on his contract, and the Sharks want him signed to 3 more years if they make the trade. I’m not sure which party is holding things up, whether Havlat wants to test free agency in a year, or other terms of the deal are contentious, but I don’t have a good feeling about this. I think if this deal was going to go through, it would have happened by now.

In other news, our Save-a-Seat day at the Tank will be in about a month. Doug and I will have to get together and talk strategy- which sections we want, what price ranges, all that crap. It’s a very exact science.
