The Thrashers are said to want players that can help them right now for Hossa, so it's not like they're giving up on the season (like the Leafs for example). Even if they trade Hossa, they'll probably make additional deals to add players. As for the Isles, there's been some talk that Trent Hunter could be moved in addition to Comrie and Satan. He's a UFA and there's no contract extension in sight. Yeah, I think you’re right Dan.

I'm also not sure I'd categorize the Thrashers as sellers, as that only applies to Marian Hossa (if Waddell can't work some magic by the weekend). I'd say they're looking to add rather than subtract or rebuild.
