The NHLs Mar. Patriots Dominique Easley Black Jersey . 5 Trade Deadline is drawing closer and teams will be deciding on whether to buy or sell. Check out todays trade-related reports and speculation from around the NHL beat. And follow TSN.ca through Deadline Day for all the updates. Millers Crossing  Mike Harrington of The Buffalo News writes that netminder Ryan Miller is unsure about his future with the Sabres. Heading into Wednesdays game against the Pittsburgh Penguins, Miller said, "anything is possible" when pondering if it was his last game in Buffalo. Asked point-blank by The Buffalo News if hes told the Sabres he wants out - or told them hes all-in to talk about a contract extension - Miller remained elusive. "Thats not really something I want to discuss with you guys," he said. "Its a private conversation about a business transaction. Really, thats what it comes down to. Im waiting to see kind of what the plans are around here. That would kind of give a little more indication. "They cant execute anything they might be planning until some time passes, where they make some trades or they have some kind of indication whats going to happen. Even then, theres no guarantee theyre going to get everything they want. Its just kind of well wait and see." Harrington also wrote that Sabres GM Tim Murray pretty much confirmed that hes in limbo on dealing Miller as well. Murray said the Sabres are studying options all over their roster but the scuttlebutt around the league is theyre getting plenty of inquiries on pending unrestricted free agents Miller, Steve Ott and Matt Moulson, as well as interest in defenceman Henrik Tallinder. "There are players on the team were certainly going to go forward with, young guys that they fit what we want to do," Murray said. "In saying that, if a team calls and they absolutely knock your socks off, then I guess Ive told a fib by saying were going to go forward with a certain player and Ive traded him. It doesnt look right, but thats my motto. Im willing to listen on every single player, so Im certainly listening on Ryan. Is that our plan? I guess well see what other teams have to say." Moving Mike?  While TSN Hockey Insider Bob McKenzie reported Tuesday on Twitter that the Calgary Flames and Mike Cammalleri are "continuing dialogue on new contract," Wes Gilbertson of The Calgary Sun says it would be a surprise if the clubs highest-paid player wasnt moved before the deadline. Staying Focused Derek Van Diest of The Edmonton Sun writes that Oilers centre Sam Gagner is focused on helping Edmonton win games rather than trade speculation. "Its something where you try and block it out," Gagner said. "I think its an easier thing to do the further you are from the trade deadline, but as it creeps up, its sometimes hard. I think its important just to focus on your game. I have some things that I need to continue to get better at, and thats something that Im trying to focus on right now, trying to help this team win games, and hopefully, I can do that heading towards the stretch here." Deep Freeze Joe Haggerty of Comcast Sportsnet tweeted out that Boston Bruins GM Peter Chiarelli has had trade talks but doesnt see them making any deals before the Olympic roster freeze. Bryan Stork Patriots Jersey . – Mats Sundin was the captain. Dominique Easley Jersey . - Defenceman Nathan Beaulieu and forwards Jonathan Huberdeau, Phillip Danault and Zack Phillips headline the Quebec Major Junior Hockey Leagues roster for the upcoming Subway Super Series versus Russia.Jeff Francis is ready to show the Cincinnati Reds that hes a true competitor. Signed to a minor league deal with an invite to Spring Training, the North Delta B.C.-native is in camp, trying to push for a starting spot with the Reds. After a forgettable 2011 in Kansas City that saw the lefty post a career-worst 6-16 record, he heads into camp taking nothing for granted. "I think Ive been to enough camps not to expect anything," Francis told TSN Radio 1050s Mike Richards on Wednesday. "Its just my job to go out and pitch the way that I know that I can and put some pressure on them." Francis has proven in the past that he can succeed in the majors, posting three consecutive seasons with 13-plus wins between 2005 and 2007. However, since a left shoulder injury that plagued him throughout 2008 and forced him to miss the entire 2009 season, his performance has not been the same. Still, three years removed from that surgery, he doesnt consider it to be a lingering issue. "I think that Im still the same pitcher I was on the mound and that I can still get people out," Francis said. He believes its all a matter of staying competitive on the field: a persona thats vastly different from his personable off-field demeanor. "When I get on the mound, Im a different guy," he told Richards. "I want to tear peoples heads off and I want to get everyone out. Theres an aggressive part of me that doesnt really come out unless Im on the field." If he can harness that aggression and regain the form that previously put him into Cy Young contention aand saw him starting World Series games, he might be able to stick in Cincy. Patriots Tedy Bruschi Womens Jersey. With the addition of Padres ace Mat Latos in the off-season, Francis will likely be trying to wrestle a job at the bottom end of the Reds rotation away from the likes of Homer Bailey and Johnny Cueto. Francis, one of a wave of Canadians to bust onto the Major League scene in the early 2000s, alongside the likes of Erik Bedard and Justin Morneau. Like Larry Walker before him, and like the 2006 American league MVP Morneau, Francis was a product of British Columbias recent legacy of developing Major League talent. Francis believes developing a culture of success in B.C. is key to continuing the trend of sending Canadians to the bigs. "The quality of instruction that you get and the opportunities you have to play baseball just afforded us the opportunity to learn from people who really knew the game," Francis said. "I think – based on the fact that you see players come out of there all the time – that its probably still the same way." Its Francis hope that this generation of Canadian big league talent serves as an example to further help the game grow North of the 49th. "I think you build on generations before you," he said. "Guys like Justin Morneau and I, we had Larry Walker to watch when we were kids. Young Canadians now have guys like Justin and Joey [Votto] and myself and Jason Bay. I mean the list goes on… They watch us and compete at a high level and they build on that." ' ' '
