Marc Savard has been link to the Leafs for awhile as well, especially after Savard said he’d waive his no-trade to go there.

- Randy Sportak of the Calgary Sun: Calgary Flames defenseman, Staffan Kronwall, would rather play in Europe than play the final season of his 2 year deal with Flames. “I want to leave and play in Sweden or elsewhere in Europe. Not that I’m uncomfortable in any way with the town and the club — I liked it — but because I want to get a bit closer to my family.” The Flames have been trying to trade him to an Eastern Conference team so that his commuting distance is shorter or help arrange something in Europe.

- Andy Strickland via twitter: The Blues are interested in Ryan Potulny, but on a two-way deal.
