I think that Palffy is a free agent, Allison is definitely a free agent; rumours send him to Tor.
Kariya currently talking to Edm, LA, and Mtl
- edit -
rumour: Toronto, aggressively pursuing Palffy to replace Mogilny

I saw LaBarbera play this past season in the AHL, and the AHL all star game for the Wolfpack. He's a very good goalie and I'm surprised the Rangers never gave him much of a shot.

Rangers are fine with young goalies. Lundqvist and Montoya are the future of the franchise.
Thornton Staying Put
From a source, "The Bruins are in talks with the representatives for Brian Leetch, I had that confirmed today. Also, I had confirmed by a close source to Mike O'Connell that the Bruins have no interest in trading Thornton at this time. Speculation is that he may sign the qualifying offer, and then try and work out a long term deal with the team. He will most likely sign the qualifying offer only if nothing is worked out by the time the season starts. People within the organization are expecting that he will sign between 6 - 6.5 million, and that it will be anywhere from 3 to 5 years. I am hearing that the EARLIEST Thornton would be moved, if at all, would be in season if they think they will not be able to work out a long term contract.So for now, the "Thornton being traded" rumors, at least from people I talk to within the Bruins organization, are dead. He is not going anywhere in the near future."

Forsberg and the Habs [w00t!!!!]
I promised my friends in Montreal Fan990 that I would do something for them...so I made some calls and it is true that the Habs are in now in talks regarding Peter Forsberg. That is a jersey I would buy. (by the way I am kidding about calling around) (maybe)

more Info...
Khabibulin to Chicago is about 90% done.
Allison to Toronto is definite.
Thornton is still rumored to be moving to the Leafs now, but Boston has come out and said, "We are not shopping him."
Pronger. Florida Word is Mike Keenan overpaid Niewendyk and Roberts to show he was serious about building a team and thus making Florida more attractive to Pronger.

Montreal WILL sign a big name, Gainey has already announced that much. He actually said he wanted to sign one big name forward and a big defenseman, they have the money and the cap space for it. Who these players will be, I don't know.Originally posted by: Insane3D
Yeah, at least stay out of Montreal...PLEASE.

I've heard and read Lecavalier, Kovalev, Kariya, and Selanne mentionned before; this is the first time I hear Forsberg. My order for these players would be Forsberg, Lecavalier, Kariya, Kovalev, Selanne. I'd much rather see them grab Lecavalier or Forsberg though, the Habs need a big power forward.
For defensemen, I'd heard Aucoin or Gonchar, but Aucoin signed with Chi and I'm not holding my breath for Gonchar. We'll see if they pick up anyone or not.

Oh, I'm sure. I wouldn't be to worried about any of the other names you mentioned, just Forsberg.
I heard the B's were going for Gonchar, but I'd prefer they don't. He can be a offensive force on D, but he's pretty much just a winger playing defense. I don't think I've ever seen him throw a check, and he routinely gets caught up ice.
He does dive a lot though...so maybe he'd be a good fit.
