i really think that the ducks trade is a realistic possibility but i hate to say it but brian burke is usually a little conservative on deadline day, so as much as i would like to see an elite prospect like ryan and a fairly high edmonton draft pick come to TO, i just dont think that the ducks will make that big of a splash on the deadline. As for the people saying that some team wont have the cap room, please check your info. A players salary by this time of the year only sets a team back a fraction of what it was at the beginning of the year. EXAMPLE – say a team picked up a player on the deadline that was on a $2million contract for the year, because most of the season has passed, this player has been paid most of his contract already, and he should only hit the salary cap at ABOUT $500,000 by the deadline. Thats why teams can make a lot of noise on deadline day. Teams like detroit and anaheim DO have the cap room to pick up multiple big names at the deadline, especially detoit who have something like $5.2 mil of cap space and could pick up rent-a-players contracts worth about $15-$20 million. i know, rediculous, but its true.

that anaheim deal sounds good but what is bertuzzi's salary? they'd probably still be over the cap if they took sundin.

I dont know where to begin with this list, First of your not going to get Logan coture second of all. Toronto doesnt need defense they have ample young talented defensemen in the marlies if its one thing toronto can draft right its defense.

Second of all Sundin will not play in the US because of his investments back home (Covered on hockey night in canada) the best possible trade is in Vancouver

"To Detriot- Mats Sundin
To Toronto- Brendan Smith, 1st round pick, 2nd round pick"
Detroit's 1st round pick will basically be a 2nd round pick because they'll probably finish first. and also their 2nd pick is basically a 3rd rounder... I don't know how good Brendan Smith is or how much potential he has, but Detroit would have to offer a lot more.

I like the idea of getting Edmonton's pick from Anaheim. and Someones comment above said that there are "too many stars" on that team, and, if Sundin wanted to win a Cup, why wouldn't he want to go to the Stanley Cup Champs,? So How about: Sundin to Ducks for Bobby Ryan, 1st round Pick(edm.'s) and Todd Bertuzzi(to balance the salary Cap)
