TSN is reporting Gary Roberts has waived his no trade clause and thus paving away for the Penguins and Panthers to finalize their trade that was agreed upon Monday Afternoon. The Penguins are expected to part with Noah Welch. The acquisition of Roberts does not mean the Penguins are done dealing. Sources have indicated they are one of the front runners to land Bill Guerin.

The Penguins have sent a offer of Ryan Malone/1st round pick to St.Louis for Bill Guerin. As of right now, the Penguins offer is considered the front runner according to TSN but the Blues are holding out until the last minute for someone to overpay for Guerin.

The Penguins are also in the hunt for Kings defenseman Aaron Miller. The Penguins and Sabres are the front runners to land Miller. The Kings are seeking a 2nd round pick for Miller but that price is expected to drop. We reported earlier the Penguins have offered a 3rd round pick but i have received word they have not offered the Kings anything at this moment but have had discussions about Aaron Miller.
