Stamkos Almost a Ranger … Stars that Could be on the Block … Ovie has Advice for Filatov … Leafs-Gustavsson talking contract
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL Free Agents, NHL Injuries, NHL News, NHL Rumors on April 5th, 2010
- Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Rangers GM Glen Sather said he ‘shook hands’ on a deal with Lightning co-owner Len Barrie last year, that would have sent Steven Stamkos to the Rangers for 2 or 3 of Michael Del Zotto, Evgeny Grachev, Ryan Callahan, Brandon Dubinsky and Dan Girardi. When Barrie took the proposed deal to GM Brian Lawton, Lawton shot it down. Barrie, still wanting to make the deal only needed approval from the other co-owner, Oren Koules. Koules shot it down as well.
- Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News: Heika thinks that several Dallas Stars could be moved this off-season. Possible candidates are Mike Ribeiro, Brad Richards, Matt Niskanen, Fabian Brunnstrom, and James Neal. Neal could be moved if they got a huge return. Ribeiro and Richards are tied together, in that if they can`t get Richards to sign an extension (contract expires after next season), they could move him. If they get Richards on an extension, Ribeiro could be expendable.
- Columbus Post-Dispatch: Alex Ovechkin has some advice for Nikita Filatov:
Capitals star Alex Ovechkin, left, thinks that Blue Jackets prospect Nikita Filatov, a fellow Russian, must come back to the NHL from the Continental Hockey League. “If he wants to play in the NHL, he has to see how different players step up and play,” Ovechkin said.
- Dave Molinari of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: A reader writes in and asks Molinari if the Penguins can/will re-sign Matt Cooke. If Cooke will re-sign for around the same $1.2 million cap hit, they’ll definitely consider it. If not, they have Dustin Jeffrey that might be ready to step in for that role.
- John Vogl of the Buffalo News: Tomas Vanek (lower body) and Tim Connolly (foot) are still not close to returning to practice. The Sabres must be praying that they’ll be ready for the playoffs.
- Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun: The 37-year-old Daniel Alfredsson will play his 1,000th game on Thursday. Alfie is still scoring at a point-a-game pace, and GM Bryan Murray figures he still has another 3 good years left.
- Jeff Gordon of the St. Louis Post Dispatch: Chris Mason steady play this season may earn him a contract extension with the Blues, and bide some time while they decide on who will be their goalie of the future. In their organization they have, Ben Bishop, Joe Fallon, and Jake Allen, but anyone of them may not be the answer they are looking for. Trading for Cory Schneider continues to be an option, but the Canucks may still want David Backes, which won’t happen. Price or Halak is another trade option, but they’d be in competition with several other teams.
- Paul Hunter of the Toronto Star: Preliminary talks between the Toronto Maple Leafs and Jonas Gustavsson have begun, but Gustavsson isn`t paying attention to the financial side until after the season.

Around the Boards: Lecavalier to Rangers? Flames interested in Armstrong, Tanguay?
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL News on January 17th, 2010
- Vincent Lecavalier to the New York Rangers trade rumors are back. Rumored package; D Matt Gilroy, D Wade Redden and either C Brandon Dubinsky or RW Ryan Callahan. I bet Lightning fans would be excited about the unacheiving, over-paid Redden.
- The Calgary Flames could be interested in winger Colby Armstrong if he becomes available.
- Sergei Gonchar could become trade bait if he isn’t re-signed.
- Whispers that Chicago is still considering a move for a goalie. Available goalies are Halak, Biron, Giguere, and maybe Roloson. Trade names out of Chicago to get under next years cap are Versteeg, Sharp, Barker and Huet.
- The Capitals are the front runners for Kovalchuk.
- The Senators, Rangers, Lightning, and Stars are interested in Sykora.
- LeBrun believes the Rangers could have an interest in Sheldon Souray, but would need to get rid of the contracts of either Michal Rozsival or Wade Redden. I don’t see it as an easy feet to get rid of either one of those contracts, plus Souray has a no-trade clause and his family is out in LA, so he might not even want to go there.
- The Penguins are close to re-signing Kris Letang or Sergei Gonchar.
- The Predators will only be re-signing one of their goalies for next year. My bet would be on Rinne.
- Senators GM, Bryan Murray, is hoping to hold contract talks this week with Dman Anton Volcheckov.
- Marty Turco could be on the move at the trade deadline. The Dallas Stars have talked to Montreal about Jaroslav Halak as their goalie of the future
Around the Boards: Rangers – Coyotes talking trade, Halak back on the Block, the Afinogenov factor?
Posted by Mark Easson in NHL Injuries, NHL News, NHL Rumors on December 11th, 2009
- Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Brooks reported that the New York Rangers have offered defensive prospect, Bobby Sanguinetti, to the Phoenix Coyotes for center Peter Mueller. The Coyotes countered by asking for either Brandon Dubinsky or Ryan Callahan. The article is worth a read as he also comments on the Rangers underachieving Cap Killers, Michal Rozsival, Wade Redden, and Chris Drury.
- Frank Seravalli of the Philadelphia Daily News: The Flyers might make a call to the Montreal Canadiens, as Jaroslav Halak is available. He’s at a respectable number of $775,000 and could be a fill in while Emery is out, and could even take over the #1 in Philadelphia. One problem for the Flyers would be that it would cost them a Top 6 forward. Also, when Emery returns, they would have 3 NHL caliber goalies on their roster.
- Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail: Ilya Kovalchuk played a big part in the Thrashers bringing Maxim Afinogenov (who’s having a terrific year) to the team, and now it’s possible that Afinogenov could play a roll in Kovalchuk staying with the Thrashers.
- Mark Giannotto of the Washington Post: After missing the last 12 games after finger surgery, Mike Knuble could return to the Capitals lineup tonight.
- George Sipple of the Detroit Free Press: Add Dan Cleary to the list of injured Detroit Red Wings. Cleary separated his shoulder and will be out 4 weeks.
