How is this lineup for the Hockey Hot Stove- Al Strachan, Eric Duhatschek and Scott Morrison, all in studio.
Strachan says some talk going around the GM circle is Glenn Healy has being mentioned as the next GM of the Leafs.
Scott Morrison says the talk of Ray Emery going to the Kings in a trade isn’t true.
Strachan mentioned the Canucks would claim Richard Matvichuk if the Devils tried to bring him back up. Devils may just let him sit and hope the Canucks try to make a deal with them.
added 10:43pm, from Eric Duhatschek of the the Globe and Mail,
It was fun being back on CBC’s Satellite Hot Stove Saturday - or the Hot Stove as they call it now, if only for the chance to work with Al Strachan again, after about a three-year absence. In the days when it was usually Strach, JD (John Davidson) and myself as the panelists, Strach always enjoyed wearing the black hat. He was at it again Saturday, suggesting there was gossip at the GMs level that John Ferguson might lose his job with the Toronto Maple Leafs by the end of the year and be replaced by TSN analyst Glenn Healy.
more plus an outdoor All Star game?

Why not play the ASG outdoors? I prefer it to a regular season game out-doors.
It’s Montreal, why not do it as a tribute to pond hockey and the legends of Montreal hockey history and 100 years of giving to hockey. Let 60,000 Canadien fans be treated to an ASG featuring Crosby, Ovechkin, Malkin, Brodeur, Luongo, Zetterburg, Datsyuk, etc.
The night before, head to the Bell Centre for Super-Skills, Young-Stars, and to cap off the night, a game between the finest Montreal-born players in NHL history and other NHL legends.

I got the feeling that this was, to use a Colin Campbell-ism, a “thought balloon” of sorts. As Duhatschek told you, the Hotstove was complicated and expensive, but if the writers can handle being brought in to Toronto on Saturdays, they might very well revive it--and Saturday’s dirt alone outshone the player discussions (no offence intended, of course, but they have the players in studio throughout the games) by a substantial margin.
