08:29 AM ET 06.19 | While Columbus didn't move Rick Nash at the deadline, it seems speculation is heating up that the breakup will take place this offseason. Jim Rutherford is stepping up to the plate like Mark McGwire circa 1998. He wants to create buzz around a team he thinks has something brewing under Kirk Muller's core of Cam Ward, Eric Staal and Jeff Skinner. There are other names to include -- Brandon Sutter, Jamie McBain, Justin Faulk among them -- but if improvement happens via trade, Rutherford's going to have to give up something to get something. Jordan Staal is the obvious name, but there's no guarantee Pittsburgh is dealing him yet. You could certainly see Carolina making a play for Nash. If there's an impact forward available, Rutherford will try to get him.

The Canes need to put a defence in front of Cam Ward first and foremost.

Please, please rethink this Spiny. Canada is a big and wonderful country. There are lots of great places to live. To***to is where we insert the noozle when Canada needs an enema.
Canuck eh?

why would you think that?
I think it would be a fine thing. At first blush, it may be a "grass is greener" thingy....but there are some rather valid reasons for this, and only a few have to do with hockey

Nash's best days behind him, he scores less each year. Seems he plays his best against the Wings so I doubt they want him

We all know any big name free agents or trades will all come to Toronto. Leaf fans will have Lungo in net, Parise and Nash up front as well as Jagr. Gretzky will come out of retirement and play in his prime again along with Mario. And this will all happen under the cap and cost Toronto a seventh round draft pick and a player to be named later.
