There are some rumblings out of Canada that the VGK may have to trade Pacioretty
or Stastny to fix their cap situation.

The link is in French, but a quick translate basically quotes one reporter from Sportsnet who says that it's partly his own opinion but also some of what he's hearing that the Knights will have to trade one of those guys.



I think it's a mistake to move either of them. I'd rather see them move a combination of Eakin and Miller, which is actually more salary than one of Stastny and Pacioretty.

You can then move up Schuldt, Hague or Whitecloud to defense and start Haula at third line center until Glass is ready, eventually trading Haula or one of the wingers at the deadline.

The Pacioretty-Stastny-Stone line is too good to split up now, I think.

EDIT: Also, Eakin and Haula are both UFAs at the end of the year, so if you don't move them, you risk getting nothing for them.
