@lakingsinsider Kings, Gaborik agree on a seven-year contract extension. @AugieRunGood #LAKings sign @MGaborik10 to a 7yr deal for 34Mil! #GoKingsGo #WelcomeBackGabo #WeAreAllKings #CelebrateStanley pic.twitter.com/7UZEBIGG3n

@DarrenDreger At least 6 teams expected to talk to Bolland's agent, Anton Thun during allowed talking period. Wants to stay with Leafs. Looks unlikely.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun Hearing St. Louis Blues among many teams that reached out to Paul Stastny camp already...

@TSNBobMcKenzie Jason Spezza trade talk heating up. OTT in conversation with 4 teams, three in the West and one in the East. @CraigCustance Asking price on Evander Kane is high. Hard to win any deal when you're trading a 22-year-old capable of scoring 40 goals on a good team.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun Talks ongoing between Habs and Gionta although other teams have called Gionta camp today as interview window opens...

Some think that no state income Tax in FLA was a factor in Callahan's deal with TB.

TOP PROSPECTS READY FOR DRAFT DAY

Devine sounded pretty confident that the Sabres will get the guy that they want at 2. If you accept the idea of Ekblad and Reinhart as the likeliest targets at #1, one could surmise that they covet either Draisaitl or Bennett. But who knows?

I wouldn't draw any conclusion about who they want since none of the top prospects have seen any action in a couple of months. Too hard to tell with the top four being so closely rated.
