from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
The Senators could be stepping up their pursuit of defenceman Mattias Ohuld (Ohlund).
Vancouver Canucks GM Mike Gillis and assistant Lawrence Gilman were on the list of scouts for last night’s Senators-Rangers game at Madison Square Garden and GM Bryan Murray hasn’t made any secret of the fact he’s looking for a puck-moving defenceman.
While the Gillis’ Canucks were playing across town on Long Island, it’s believed contract talks with Ohlund have been fruitless and if they continue to go nowhere, he might be asked to waive his no-movement clause to accept a deal elsewhere.

I’ll touch on this in my post today, but there’s no small irony that Vancouver may have suggested this in New York, as the Senators faced Redden, who many times refused to waive his NTC during his final year with Ottawa, many teams being interested in his puck-moving pedigree. Ohlund might well be the same, and a trade to a team like Ottawa, as opposed to a Cup contender, seems like a very unlikely move for a man with a NTC.
