Gomez to Minnesota?

Here is a entertaining rumor from Eklund The Anonymous Hockey Blogger. I don't see that happening because Gomez and Gabby are two different types of players Marian Gaborik scores goals he had 42 of them last season and well Gomez doesn't score as many goals as Gabby. 42 > 16... This would be a one sided deal.

Had a long day of travel and I am just now getting to all of the emails and texts from various sources now that the Gomez rumours have begun.

One source told me that although he has heard that Vancouver is the likely destination that Gomez would end up should Sundin sign with the NY Rangers in the next few days don't think for a second that Edmonton and Minnesota won't also get involved.

"I heard a Gomez for Gaborik rumour (this morning)...of course this wouldn't help the cap situation for the NY Rangers, but Gaborik who is in the last year of his deal could come to NY and Minnesota would get a player in Gomez who is under contract for some time."

Another source, connected to the Oilers since the W days said, "It is no seret that the Oilers were VERY in on Gomez on July 1 2007 and I am quite sure that if he becomes available they are in line."
