TSN has got a few interesting reports.

Stars are interested in Derian Hatcher.

Sabres are trying to trade Miroslav Satan

Scott Niedermeyer's agent believes his client will become a FA and that he expects to get close to the max from some team.

And apparently Pavel Datsuk is trying to use playing in Russia to get the Red Wings to pony up.

Don't know why the Stars are interested in Hatcher, he looked really old and slow when he was in Detroit.

I also don't understand Buffalo's thinking. Satan is an RFA and you don't plan on giving him a qualifying offer, so you think a team will trade for him so that they can make a qualifying offer? Why wouldn't teams just wait 'til he becomes an UFA and then make their offer? They wouldn't have to give up anything then.

I don't see Niedermeyer getting close to the max. The Rangers are more interested in Rafalski.
