UPDATE 5:13 p.m.: It sounds like whatever the trade is going to be, we are not going to hear what it is until after the game against the Columbus Blue Jackets. Good luck focusing on the game, but at least we get to watch Nick Merkley again.
UPDATE 4:53 p.m.: Our own Tyler Kelley is reporting Boston Bruins are actually the team that’s traded for Blake Coleman. Jimmy Murphy with Boston Hockey Now says that the Bruins, Avalanche and the Edmonton Oilers are all in on Coleman right now. There may even be a fourth team. It sounds like it’s confirmed that he has been traded.
