For the time being it appears all is quiet in regards to a potential trade for Carolina Hurricanes forward
Ray Whitney.
The Los Angeles Kings still have interest in the 37-year-old, who has 45 points this season, including 17 goals and 28 assists.
Carolina believes they will get a first round pick and a prospect inreturn for Whitney, who wants an extension and would waive his no-tradeclause for a two-year extension.
Originally, when this trade was proposed to him, he asked for a three-year extension and Los Angeles countered with one-year.
If the Kings were to give the extra year, this trade would likely happen.
It remains in a holding pattern and will likely be a deadline deal.
