Doug Weight Mentioned on TSN's Trade Centre

Not the most breaking news in the world, but the guys on TSN's Trade Centre speak about the benefits of acquiring Doug Weight despite his injury for a stretch run. They even mentioned how Dougie would be a good fit for Chicago as they need a veteran centerman.

Peter Laviolette - a guest host on the show today, says Weight is "a no-maintenance guy in the room who knows what it takes to win a Stanley Cup".

At least they think he will somehow still be in play. More if it develops, naturally.

Do you think Doug Weight will be moved today, despite his injury? Vote below!

I'm torn

Certainly haven’t heard anything about contract talks, so I could see Snow taking the best offer.

I suppose if Logan’s bet that Guerin goes to Pittsburgh is correct, then the World Cup ‘96ers won’t be packaged together!

Logie wrote in his article this morning that things between Guerin and the coach could be patched up in 10 minutes – so maybe Doug is giving us an idea not to expect anything? Who knows.

Who knows.

Heh, exactly.

I saw Hunter is in a walking cast?! We may need to add bodies just to get through this season, jeez.

Yea, but it’s not “broken”.
