More on Maple Leafs – Flyers rumors … DiPietro season likely over … Carcillo done for year … Stars-Panthers trade
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL Injuries, NHL News, NHL Rumors, NHL Suspensions on January 14th, 2012
- Sam Carchidi via twitter: A Flyers official shot down the rumor that James van Riemsdyk was being traded to the Maple Leafs for Luke Schenn. “Not happening,” he said. If the Flyers make a deal it will be closer to the trade deadline. They have lots of interest in Ryan Suter and are not looking at him as ‘rent-a-player.’ The Flyers have about $4.2 million in cap room. Hurricanes defenseman Bryan Allen and Tim Gleason are on their list but not at the top.
- James Mirtle of the Globe and Mail: Maple Leafs GM Brian Burke:
“I told Luke it’s not a guarantee that he wouldn’t be traded if something materializes, but we’re not in trade discussions with any team about him right now,” Burke said. “We haven’t offered him to anybody. I don’t know where the rumours started. I told him that’s not happening.”
Burke’s phone is ringing more frequently of late.
“We’re getting a lot of calls and we’re listening,” Burke said. “But that’s very different than offering a player. Fielding a phone call on a player is very different than making a phone call on a player.”
- TSN 1050 Podcast: Brian Burke talks trade rumors. (you might have to search the archive to find it if they add more podcast to their loop.)

Dustin Leed via twitter: Leed has been told that some discussion has taken place, but the Flyers would need Schenn + to move van Riemsdyk. Leed added that their first option is to keep him and seek a defenseman in another way.

Looking at legal action against Cherry … Crosby could be cleared for contact … Stars may need to add to get to floor … Kadri healing quickly
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL News on October 11th, 2011
- James Mirtle via twitter: Stu Grimson, Chris Nilan and Jim Thomson are “considering further recourse” against Don Cherry. “Cherry’s comments were … baseless and slanderous.” Josh Cooper via twitter: Stu Grimson: “Further recourse does include an investigation into what legal recourse might be available to this group.”
- Josh Rimer via twitter: Sidney Crosby should be cleared for contact today.
- Pat Leonard of the NY Daily News: Rangers defenseman is still receiving treatment for a his headaches and likely won’t be with the team this week. Tortorella received word on Saturday that Staal was “feeling good.” Asked if he’s prepared for a long-term Staal absence, Tortorella said: “I don’t know if you prepare that way. We just – whoever’s out there practicing, we’re preparing. And if someday Marc comes in and he’s there, we’re gonna prepare him the best we can to play a game.”
- Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News: So with Sean Avery’s salary cap number not counting against the Dallas Stars cap number while he’s on the AHL, it may require them to add someone to make sure they don’t fall below the cap floor. The new player they add may have to make $1.2 million or more. Winger Tomas Vincour is only at $800,000 so he may have to move to the AHL for a more expensive player. Some free agents GM Joe Nieuwendyk could look at: Mike Grier, John Madden, Sergei Samsonov, Steve Bernier, Chris Clark, and Michael Nylander.
- Erik Erlendsson of the Tampa Tribune: Lightning defenseman Mattias Ohlund will be out for up to a month as he’ll be having arthroscopic surgery on both knees today. He’s already on the IR, and hasn’t skated since Sept. 29th. “I’m going to say four to six weeks, but it really depends on how he feels, so it could be before that,” Yzerman said. The Lightning already have 7 healthy defenseman on the roster so it’s unlikely they look to acquire someone.
- Ted Kulfan of the Detroit News: The Red Wings power play is 0 for 9 to start the season, so they’ll try Jiri Hudler on the wing during Thursday’s game against the Canucks.
- Dmitry Chesnokov via twitter: Victor Tikhonov was waived by the Coyotes has signed with SKA in the KHL.
- Eric Stephenson of the OC Register: Recently acquired Kyle Cumiskey is expected to head to the Ducks AHL team. Goalie Jeff Deslauriers and winger Brian McGrattan need to clear waivers before they can head to Syracuse.
- Mike Zeisberger of the Toronto Sun: Leafs forward Nazem Kadri is recovering quickly, “The little bastard is back faster than I was led to believe,” Wilson said. Kadri suffered a knee injury in late September and may find himself playing for the Marlies for a bit to shed some rust. He was expected to be out 3 to 4 weeks, but is back on the ice after only 2.
- Ben Meyer-Abbott of the Chicago Sun-Times: Winger Dan Carcillo was practicing on a line with Patrick Kane and Marian Hossa yesterday.
More on Brad Richards … Leino’s contract may have to wait … Savard passes Neuro test
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL Audio, NHL Injuries, NHL News, NHL Rumors on November 24th, 2010
- Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News: Everyone knows by now that Richards is a UFA at seasons end, the team is without owners, the Stars would to sign him, he wouldn’t mind staying, and he might be traded at the trade deadline. Joe Nieuwendyk had that is say, “I’ve talked to NHL Commissioner] Gary Bettman about the issues, and I did ask that if the lenders are carrying us to summer time, then we have some important things we need to talk about with them,” he said. “I think the lenders are also aware how important this could be for our team.” In my opinion, if they could get Richards to sign a cap friendly deal in the $6.5 million range, it could be a plus for a potential owner. It’s not a crazy number to have your number one player at, and I’d rather a Stars roster with him on it than without. Their cap number can easily stay below $50 million with Richards signed.
- Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Glen Sather won’t be putting a together a package of his young players (Dubinsky, Staal, Del Zotto or Callahan) for Brad Richards. If/when Richards becomes a UFA on July 1st, the Rangers will definitely look at him. Sather will monitor the Richards situation during the year, and especially at the trade deadline, if they feel they are one piece away they might take a closer look.
- Frank Seravalli of the Philadelphia Daily News: The Flyers may not be able to sign Ville Leino to a contract extension due to the league rule that they cannot exceed this years salary cap number ($59.4 million) when it comes to next years salaries. So far they have $57.6 million tied into 18 players. If they sign him to under $1.8 million, they would be able to add him. Leino’s agent met with the Flyers last week, and both sides realize there is plenty of time to get a deal done. Dan Carcillo (sprained MCL) is scheduled to skate today and is at least a week away.
- Jeff Gordon of the St. Louis Post Dispatch: Gordon thinks the Blues should keep an eye on the Bruins situation when they need to start unloading some contracts. With TJ Oshie out for an extended period of time, and David Perron still suffering post concussion symptoms, they might be need some help upfront.
- Joe Haggerty via twitter: Marc Savard passed his Neuro-psych tests yesterday and now has clearance for contact.
- Vicki Hall via twitter: Flames will know the morning is Matt Stajan is able to go against the Devils (click here to see Stajan laid out by Staal if you missed it). Robyn Regehr is day-to-day with a lower body injury.
- Corey Masisak via twitter: Mike Green on his recent injury, “It is more of something that has been bothering me in the past and it is not getting better.”
- Eric Stephens of the OC Register: The Anaheim Ducks traded forward Ryan Carter to the Carolina Hurricanes for prospects Matt Kennedy and Stefan Chaput. In 18 games Carter registered 3 points and 22 PIMs, and cleared waivers before they traded him. Carolina plans to use him as their 4th line center. Kennedy and Chaput will report to Syracuse. Anaheim also traded Stu Bickel to the NY Rangers for Nigel Williams.
- Ian Walker of the Vancouver Sun: The Canucks have put Peter Schaefer on waivers yesterday. Teams have until 9 am this morning to claim him, he’ll likely be assigned to Manitoba if clears. Jeff Tambellini will likely be recalled. The question will be if the veteran Schaefer reports or not.

Gagne will waive his no-trade clause … Kaberle wouldn’t happen until next week … Ducks-Ryan talks “done for a while”
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL News on July 3rd, 2010
Anthony Sanfilippo of the Delaware County Daily Times: Simon Gagne has agreed to waive his no trade clause. The Flyers don’t have a deal in place for Gagne though. The Flyers would like to move Gagne to free up some cap space to re-sign Darroll Powe and Dan Carcillo, and take a run at a higher priced goalie. Marty Turco really wants to go to Philly. The LA Kings could be interested in Gagne. Rumors are that it could involve several players, but is most likely to involve a player and draft picks. James van Riemsdyk name has also been mentioned.
Helene Elliott of the LA Times: LA Kings GM Dean Lombardi continues to work on “a number of different scenarios”. Ilya Kovalchuk is of course the big one, but he’s rumored to be getting a 10 year, $100 million offer from the Islanders, which may be too big for the Kings to match. The Isles are $9 million under salary for and are looking to build a new arena. There are also reports that the Kings may be interested in Gagne, though that would depend on if they land Kovalchuk.
Lance Hornby of the Toronto Sun: Any Tomas Kaberle deal not likely to happen until next week due to the long weekend. Burke doesn’t expect much action on free agents this weekend as well. He won’t make a pitch for Kovalchuk ‘unless the bottom right out of the market’. Burke had agents for 2 ex-Leafs calling him.
Lance Hornby of the Toronto Sun: The Anaheim Ducks are “done for a while” according to GM Bob Murray in regards to their talks with RFA Bobby Ryan. Ryan said he didn’t expect to make more money than Ryan Getzlaf and Corey Perry, then he turned down a 5-year, $25 million deal.
Tarik El-Bashir of the Washington Post: The Washington Capitals may look to fill their 2nd-4th line centers with a player from within the organization. The leading candidates so far would be converted winger Tomas Fleischmann, and inexperienced Mathieu Perrault and Marcus Johansson.

David Pagnotta via Twitter: The Stars are still dangling Mike Ribeiro, but nothing is close.
Rob Rossi via Twitter: The Penguins will take the weekend to look at some trade possibilities. They’d like to add a veteran ‘character’ guy who is cheap.
Pierre LeBrun via Twitter: Not saying the Maple Leafs will sign Maxim Afinogenov, but there’s been conversations.
Pierre LeBrun via Twitter: The Oilers won’t be putting Sheldon Souray through re-entry waivers, as they have zero interest in eating half his salary.
Erik Erlendsson via Twitter: Yzerman is still looking for a Dman, and has interest in forwards, only at the right price.
Jason Botchford via Twitter: 10 teams have called about Vancouver’s Kevin Bieksa.
David Pagnotta via Twitter: Willie Mitchell has a couple offers but nothing is close.
Dmitry Chesnokov via Twitter: 2 teams in the Northeast division have an interest in Nik Zherdev.
Pierre LeBrun via Twitter: The Detroit Red Wings are the only team to call Mike Modano so far.
10 teams after Volchenkov? Isles have a big wish list … Coburn could be a tough sign … No progress with Hamhuis
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL Free Agents, NHL News, NHL Rumors on June 30th, 2010
- Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun: Anton Volchenkov could have as many as 10 teams checking in with him when the free agent market opens up tomorrow. Likely suitors could be Washington, San Jose, Atlanta, Anaheim, St. Louis, and the NY Rangers. He could get a contract in the $4.5-5 million range.
- Tim Sassone of the Daily Herald: The Chicago Blackhawks may look at some free agents for their 3rd-4th lines and a cheap, depth defenseman. They need to add some size and toughness, but the most important factor will that they are inexpensive. The ‘Hawks may end up dealing Andrew Ladd, who they’ve sent a qualifying offer too already. Possible defenseman targets could be: Sean O’Donnell, Jay McKee, Brett Lebda, Brett Clark, John Scott, and Garnet Exelby.
- Chris Botta of NYI Point Blank: The NY Islanders have about $6-8 million to spend to reach the salary cap floor. They’d like to add: a top-4 defenseman, a tough experienced 5th – 6th defenseman, a potential top-6 forward, a reliable-penalty killing bottom-6 forward, and a backup goalie.
- Frank Seravalli of the Philadelphia Daily News: The Flyers spent much of yesterday talking with their restricted free agents. Darroll Powe and Dan Carcillo have already been qualified. Braydon Coburn may be a trickier signing. The 25-year old made $1.3 million last season, and put up similar numbers to Kris Letang, who signed a 4 year deal with the Penguins for $3.5 million a season. One concern Dan Hamhuis had when talking to the Flyers wasn’t about money but about his role with the club, minutes he’d get.
- Dave Molinari of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: There hasn’t been much progress between Dan Hamhuis and the Pittsburgh Penguins. The sides continue to talk, but they may not get a deal done by tomorrow.
- Rich Chere of the Star-Ledger: It doesn’t look like Paul Martin will re-sign with the Devils before tomorrow, and will test free agency. It’s still possible the Martin signs with the Devils.
