from Thrashers Blog,
Your Thrashers GM did say that the prices for rental players is sky high right now, one of the reasons you aren’t seeing many trades. It’s also why he thinks we’ll see more trades like the one between Carolina and Ottawa where both teams try to address their weaknesses. But as for trading UFA’s, Waddell said this: “If I’m a team that’s trading a UFA, where last year you’re happy getting a first and third round pick, now you’re saying that’s not good enough.”

Interesting comments from the Atlanta fans on the post.
It didn’t take long for them to mention an increase in season ticket prices for next year. I can see why they are upset - I’d be annoyed too if I paid full price for my tickets and they kept going up, and then saw a string of ads for tickets at half-price.
