Editor-in-Chief is a pretty cool title, I thought // NHL “reporter” // I regularly call talkback with my trade ideas // Parody account

Remember: There are a lot of fake insider accounts out there. Make sure to look for the blue check marks to know what is real and what isn’t.

K yep, the #Habs did indeed submit an offer sheet for Carolina’s Sebastian Aho. Confirmed.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Still waiting on official confirmation that Aho signed an offer sheet from the #habs.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Sounding more and more like the #Habs have offersheeted Sebastian Aho of the Carolina Hurricanes, according to reliable sources in Montreal. Confirmation to follow.

I’ve been working the phones all morning only to discover that my landline was unplugged the whole time! Please disregard all tweets so far today #FreeAgentFrenzy #SigningSeason

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Sebastian Aho quietly going under the radar in all of the noise today. I’m hearing that he’ll re-sign with the #canes at league minimum in order to get back into the news cycle #FreeAgentFrenzy #SigningSeason

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Belief is that Buffalo was priced out of the Bobrovsky sweepstakes. Vesey was their backup plan and they got their man for a good price #FreeAgentFrenzy #sabres

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Bit out of left field, but word is that Jason Spezza plans to retire as a Leaf #tmltalk #sens

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Panarin update: Sounding more and more like his next contract will be 7 yr, between $8-13mil AAV. Believe NYR, NYI & FLA are front runners but he could end up literally anywhere else. Stay tuned. #nyr #isles #FLAPanthers #FreeAgentFrenzy

Your reminder to beware of fake twitter accounts at this time of year!

Working the phones. Sounds like Kessel is definitely on the move. Unsure where exactly, but my guess is either north or south of the border.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

I can confirm that Phil Kessel could be on the move in the next few days. Or he stays put. Hard to say, really.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Working the phones this morning, and it sounds as if Duchene has agreed in principle to a deal with the #habs. The forward has deep roots in Montreal and wants to learn some French. Deal to be finalized in the next couple of days, either with the Habs or another team.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

I'm told that Roberto Luongo has indeed retired

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

According to my sources, Roberto Luongo has retired. Stay tuned for official confirmation. #flapanthers

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Sharks captain Joe Pavelski has a big decision to make this summer. He's currently weighing up his options, and I'm told the #blackhawks are front-runners. Pav would require the captaincy if he goes to the windy city. Belief is that Toews' time might be up.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Montreal Canadiens have re-signed D Mike Reilly to a two-year, $3M deal #habs

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Quick reminder as we ramp up to free agency: There are a lot of fake insider accounts out there. Be sure to look for the blue check marks to know what is real and what isn’t.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Making some early calls this morning. I’m told the rumours about the #habs meeting with Duchene were not credible. He wants to compete for a cup now. #leafs to meet with him if Marner talks continue to break down.

[Dave Pagnotta @TheForthPeriod]

Lots of noise right now surrounding Philadelphia's Gostisbehere. New Jersey is the front runner to acquire the blueliner, but NYI also pushing very hard to load up. Anders Lee's impending departure has Lou looking for a leader to fill the void. #Flyers #Isles
