On Sportsnet, they said he is highly unlikely to be traded because of his NTC and he hasn't been asked to waive it yet.

Anyone think Nash goes anywhere. The chatter is that Columbus can get a better deal for him at the draft with more teams involved. I do think that that is the lynchpin that decides whether this is going to be a day full of tinkering and tweaks as opposed to a flat out goldrush of bigger deals.

Backstrom was placed on LTIR this morning...does Washington just blow things up at this point?

Nash won't get traded today, and i still feel that's a mistake. Columbus can have 29 suitors on draft day, but the same teams on Nash's approved list aren't going to change.

Wahington, along with Chicago are the probably the most disappointing teams this season. i see no reason to blow up the Caps, but they need to seriously re-tool that team.

You don't think Nash gets a little more flexible if the deadline passes without a move? And regardless of his list more teams in the bidding will certainly drive the asking price up. Chicago may be disappointing but they are nowhere near the rudderless/lack of identity team that Washington is. There has been something intrinsically wrong with that team from the beginning and it appears to be getting worse, not better.

Sounds like DET is trying to make room for something big?
