The San Jose Sharks have extended Logan Couture to a two-year $5.75 million contract.

This is a solid signing as Couture is still an RFA and will not be eligible for UFA status for a while.

Logan Couture has apparently told some people that his friend Drew Doughty has expressed frustrations regarding contract negotiations with the Kings.

The NHL trade deadline is next week. There are of course the names that always seem to be in the trade rumors category.

Then there are the deals that no one really anticipates, surprises like Dallas Stars James Neal and Matt Niskanen to Pittsburgh for Alex Goligoski. While many of the rumored players could be moved, it is just as likely that most of the trades made will include players that were not speculated over as much.

Here are nine bold predictions for the trade deadline.

With the NHL Trade Deadline set for February 28 many fans are wondering what their favorite team is going to do. With players such as Tomas Kaberle being dealt to the Boston Bruins, Eric Brewer  to the Tampa Bay Lighting, Mike Fisher to the Nashville Predators and Kris Versteeg  to the Philadelphia Flyers, many are wondering who is left to trade. 

While the fireworks may have started early this year here are10 players who could be dealt by the deadline.

Cam Fowler has endured a lot for a kid that was drafted into the NHL at 18-years-old.

The NHL trade deadline, February 28, is rapidly approaching. It is the teams' last chance to add to their rosters going into the playoffs.

High profile teams like the Pittsburgh Penguins are in dire need of some acquisitions, if they want to remain serious Stanley Cup contenders this year.

The Penguins desperately need some offensive relief to replace the void left by Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. Both stars' statuses are unknown at this point.

There is a Zach Bogosian video making the rounds of the Internet today. The promising young Atlanta Thrashers defenseman performed one of the most epic goal celebration fails of the season. 

With just under three minutes to play in overtime against the Nashville Predators on Monday, the puck came loose in Atlanta's offensive zone. Thrashers forward Ben Eager took the puck, and fed Bogosian beautifully. 

Zach Bogosian — Bogosian made the Thrashers in his draft year. He went pointless in his first eight games before a broken leg forced him to miss 28 games. Bogosian came back from that injury and finished the season with nine goals, 19 points and a +14 rating in the final 38 games.

After such a strong finish, the Thrashers were counting on Bogosian to take his game to the next level. Unfortunately, he was hit by the jinx, scoring only 10 goals and totaling 23 points and a -18 rating over 81 games.

As part of a continuing series, writer Benjamin Benya will be previewing all 30 NHL teams over the next two weeks in preparation for the 2010-2011 regular season.
