Breaking: Forward on the trading block has just been scratched.

This might be nothing, or it might the a sign of something very big, and we have to believe it's the latter.

Winnipeg Jets captain Andrew Ladd was by all accounts expected to play this evening, however according to a report from The Fouth Period's David Pagnotta Ladd has just been made a last minute healthy scratch.

Obviously given that this is the only information we have at this time it's impossible to speculate on where he might be traded, after all this may not be a trade, but the Chicago Blackhawks and Florida Panthers were reportedly the frontrunners to acquire him.

We will monitor this story and provide updates when they are available.
