Olli Jokinen is one of the biggest names rumored to be on the move, and given that he is under contract for two more years and does not have a no-trade clause in his contract, he figures to be a big time target, according to NHL.com. Olli is due $10.75 million the next two seasons which is a reasonable cost for a player who has scored at least 30-goals in three straight seasons. Jokinen has recorded 180 points the last two seasons, so if he were move to a more well-rounded squad, his plus/minus (-15) could raise to the point that he could be a top-20 skater the rest of the year.
