What's up hockey fans …
First, a disclaimer: I don't think Carey Price will get traded to the Edmonton Oilers before the April 12 deadline. Honestly, I'd be shocked if he goes anywhere before the summer.
The contract is simply too massive to move in-season. Finding a team that can take on his $10.5-million salary — or send back the necessary pieces in order to match — is next to impossible. Even if you could do it, there's the fact that Price hasn't played since Game 5 of the Stanley Cup final that should scare away any potential bidders.
That being said, I'm not ruling it out completely.
After all, something needs to be done in Edmonton. Something bigger than juggling the lines or changing the head coach.
