Colorado believes they are the frontrunner to land Los Angeles D-man Rob Blake.

Anaheim and Detroit are also pursing the All-Star D-man, Dallas is out.

Many believe Blake isn’t going anywhere and he will re-sign in the summer to stay in LA.

Dallas is out?

When was Dallas ever "in"?

The Natural · February 22nd, 2008, 02:12 PM

to Colorado:
Rob Blake, Kyle Calder, The rights to Adam Deadmarsh

to Los Angeles:
TJ Hensick, Paul Stasny

DONE!!!

I am getting tired of saying this as much as you are CBGB...Blake won't get traded and if he does there is no way the Kings and Ducks will ever make a trade with one another unless Burke robs us.

Silly Mortal.

I think it was my 11 year old nephew who put the "Blake to Dallas" rumor out there.

See how the internet works?

Blake to TORONTO!

**SirJW** · February 22nd, 2008, 02:25 PM

DL should get Blake to sign now.

**KINGS17** · February 22nd, 2008, 02:30 PM

Is there anyone out there hoping that Blake isn't back next season, like I am?

This guy was sleeping walking through the first couple of months of the season, and the team has played well without him down the stretch. We can do without him and go with a younger, cheaper option.

I say bring him back only if he understands that he is a 5-6 and won't be getting all the juicy PP duty, and is paid accordingly.

Strickland has more street cred than Ecklund.

WOW! You mean you can play 100% right after hip surgery? So all the coaches, trainers, medical staff who evaluated his injury were wrong when they said it would be 2-3 months after the surgery for him to be 100%? Man, do i feel deceived.
