from Pierre LeBrun and Scott Burnside of ESPN,
Pierre LeBrun: The lesser trades often make a difference come playoff time. The Hawks have indeed scouted Halpern, but I’m wondering if they think $2 million next season on the last year of his deal is too much. Time will tell.
I think the Hawks have several players on their radar for their purchase of a center, including Dominic Moore and Nik Antropov in Toronto. Moore has been a surprise this season in my town, getting his first bit of regular work in the NHL and responding with a consistent work ethic. He’s your prototypical third-line center and has a great attitude. The Leafs have been talking contract with him this week, but if he doesn’t sign, he’s a goner.
