All Quiet In Tampa

from Erik Erlendsson of the Tampa Tribune,
Where has all the Vinny Lecavalier chatter gone?
It seems only recently Lecavlier’s name was all the rage in trade rumor circuits, with the Lightning captain’s new 11-year, $85 million contract extension, which includes a no-movement clause, to begin on July 1.
But as the NHL draft approaches Friday and Saturday, the volume has been turned down to a low murmur on message boards and Web sites in regard to Lecavalier’s situation. Even Lightning general manager Brian Lawton’s phone has not been ringing out of its holster.
“It’s been reasonably quiet around here,” Lawton said of trade talk from his Tampa office on Friday. “We’ve had some calls, but nothing I would consider serious.”
