I don’t think it takes a rocket scientist to figure this one out.
What is new for Kaberle is that of the list of 10 teams he would waive his no-trade clause for should Burke work out a deal prior to the NHL’s March 4 trade deadline, it is believed all are in the Eastern Conference.
The article from Slam! Sports really sheds some light on the blueliner’s trade demands.
So let’s see… 10 teams… Why does that sound familiar?
Oh right, that’s exactly how many teams have a shot at making the playoffs in the Eastern Conference.
The Islanders, Thrashers and Lightning are all atrocious (not to mention ho-hum hockey destinations) so I’m sure they’re out. Assuming Kablerle left off the Leafs and the rival Senators, there are 10 eastern conference teams left, all with playoff hopes.
Mystery solved. Next case, please.
