According to Mr. Leopold a Hockey Rumor Buzz Correspondent Simon Gagne of the Philadelphia Flyers 29 years old, may be heading to the Hab's, but for who, for what he makes no mention of. If Gagane is moved at all I ask what is his worth to Montreal. Leopold raises the fact that a Gagne move to Montreal could cost the Flyers another 35 goal deduction.t?

If you are scouring the National Hockey league looking for the epitome of a team in salary cap hell, you will find that it is the Philadelphia Flyers, who have just over $2 million left.
My sources close to the Flyers have informed me that the team has been trying to deal Simon Gagne for months now, but since he has a no trade clause, it has been close to impossible. However, my insider has informed me that Gagne would in fact waive that clause in order to play in Montreal.
The French Canadian would feel right at home by accepting a trade to the Canadiens, and as you are reading this article right now, I am guaranteeing that Bob Gainey and Paul Holmgren are working the phones trying to get a deal done.
We may be seeing Gagne in red, white, and blue very, very soon!
