Coral Springs Panthers General Manager Randy Sexton said Saturday that he has moved closer to making a number of possible trades, but stressed he's not auctioning off players between now and Wednesday's NHL trade deadline.

"Make no mistake — there will be no fire sale," Sexton said.

There are plenty of opportunities, though.

"We're discussing a whole host of deals — some of which include draft picks, some of which include NHL players, some of which include some combination," he said.

The team's new majority co-owners, Stu Siegel and Cliff Viner, wrote in a letter to fans before the Olympic break that the team requires "reshaping" and "significant change," a strong indication that the Panthers, who've lost six consecutive games, will be sellers.

Well I can't imagine people paying full price for anyone, so will the panthers actually be able to trade anyone is the real question I guess.

A few Vokoun rumours as we gear up for the trade deadline. Lots of Panthers available, but it doesn't sound like he's one of them.

So does this mean the fire sale is coming during the off-season or that the new owners are bad liars?

We just got a 2nd rounder for Dom Moore. I'd say our returns on Vokoun, Horton, or anyone will be decent and market value. If not, we will likely wait until Draft Day.

I don't know if they really had enough time to work something out. They might make a few small moves, but I'd expect them to do more work around the draft day
