Abby's a free agent and won't be pursued by the team. Kovalev, however, is another matter entirely. His contract is too rich to buy out at this point (he still has two years left at $4.75M), so unless they can trade him, they're stuck with him.
I have a very strong feeling that Carey Price is going to be with the team at some point this season, and he will be the #1 goalie when that happens.
Huge trade today between Nashville and Philadelphia, as Philly gets Hartnell and Timmonen. The Preds are totally gutting the team in anticipation of being sold to Balsillie. If they wanna trade Shea Weber to Montreal for a bag of pucks, that'd be swell.
I hope to see Nashville in Hamilton real soon, but I hope the don't completely dissect the team first.

you would think that if Nashville moves to Hamilton which might NOT be approved..then they may have to dump salary(due to the high CDn dollar and start over by re-building that team..so if Kariya&Weber gets moved to Vancouver lets say..they have Ohlund to build around...also Toskala now in Toronto??wierd move because Toronto never had a steady goaltender to last more than 4-8yrs straight(last 10yrs) to my memory serves

And the fact that it is after the entry draft.

Yes, as well.
There are teams who would like to get some cap space by getting rid of some players to sign UFA's but they don't because they may end up not signing the UFA as well as without the players they previously traded.
