Quick review of all players with NTC (no trade clauses) for those who see a name in the endless rumors/speculation.
Vinnie LeCavalier signed an 11-year, $86.5 million contract extension that commences next season, but his no-trade clause in the new contract doesn't take effect until July 1 this summer. So there is, technically, nothing to prevent the Lightning, if they so choose, from trading Lecavalier before the March 4 trade deadline despite ownership assurances he will not be dealt.
Here is a list of the rest of the players with NTC.
