February 10/09 -
If the Ducks fall out of playoff contention – a big if – they might consider moving either man, along with a couple of depth forwards.
Philadelphia might be looking for a player like Pronger. But the Flyers have to clear cap space. Would the Ducks be interested in F Scotty Upshall, Mike Knuble, or Joffrey Lupul? Not likely. It will take a package of blue chip prospects to lure Pronger.
The word is that only three Ducks are untouchable: Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Bobby Ryan.
The team is reportedly waiting for D Tomas Kaberle and Pavel Kubina to provide their choice of teams they are willing to move to. Both are protected by no-trade clauses.
Larry Brooks of the New York Post says every Leaf is available except Luke Schenn, Mikhail Grabovski and John Mitchell.

Names in play coming out of the All Star break:
Defense:
Beauchemin is hurt and Pronger is the only Ducks defenseman under contract for next season, so dealing either is a long shot.
The Thrashers have nothing left to play for this year.
Names in circulation for over a year now.
Widely assumed that no job is safe in Tampa.
Like the Lightning, the Islanders are capable of anything.
With the Panthers in the heat of the playoff race, it might take more than a player, a prospect and a pick to pry him loose.
Team looks solid at D, badly in need of scoring.
Coyotes blue line is already thin.
As the post-season slips away, the Avs should be open for offers.
Forwards:
Having a disappointing year, so wouldn't fetch much.
Almost surely wishful thinking.
Leafs fans still await the Brian Burke makeover.
Even Steve Stamkos is supposedly available.
If you're on the Island and you can play a bit, there's a rumor with your name on it.
A decent third-line pick-up for somebody, as he won't demand much more than a pick.
Just returned from a long injury, so the unknown quantity will appeal to some.
The real question is whether the rest of the Sens are for sale.
Picking up after a slow start, but the Oilers are a legit playoff team.
His season-long injury troubles make a trade almost impossible.
A career playoff dud, but hope springs every March.
Offer a top-four defenseman.
Goaltenders:
Due for free agency this summer. Do the Wild have the nerve to either sign or trade one of the best in the NHL?
Bruins have Tim Thomas in net and Tuukka Rask waiting in the wings.
