LeBrun: The Predators have had talks with the Ducks regarding Jonas Hiller, but are waiting to learn more about Pekka Rinne’s health before making a decision. If it looks like Rinne’s health will keep him out longer, they may look to move on a goalie.

Milan Hejduk ukončil kariéru

Elliotte Friendman of CBC: Devils GM Lou Lamoriello on trading Martin Brodeur.
”We’ve never had any conversations about it. I’ve never talked to anyone else about it and I’m not going to waste any time on it.”
Canadiens pending UFA, Andrei Markov, is changing agents. This is something some GM hate.

“You’re always worried the new guy is telling him how much better a deal he can get,” one GM said. “Then, he has to live up to it.”
If P.K. Subban says he’ll go for a two-year arbitration deal that would take him to unrestricted free agency, which could be worth $7 million per season, then you know he’s unhappy in Montreal. The Canadiens will look for a longer deal.

The Maple Leafs may be looking for right-shooting defenseman. It’s been an on-again/off-again situation. At one point they looked at Mike Weaver, but may be looking for someone that can play higher up in their lineup.

The Senators and Stars are said to be looking for a defenseman.

Friedman isn’t sure if the Senators would consider trading Craig Anderson. If they were to move him, would need a goalie coming back.

Panthers GM Dale Tallon has been trying hard to make a trade, but he wants to move guys with bad contracts. Players that could interest teams are Marcel Goc ($1.7 million) and Shawn Matthias ($1.75 million).

The Predators looked at Ilya Bryzgalov before he signed with the Oilers but were denied.

The Oilers may have looked at Jonas Hiller, but Ducks GM Bob Murray doesn’t like trading within the division.

The Capitals may have had some interest in Ladislav Smid before he was traded to the Flames.

Some executives would be surprised if the Flyers traded Wayne Simmonds, though you can never predict what the Flyers will do.

Some teams are looking at undrafted free agent Colin Suellentrop (Oshawa Generals). He attended the Canadiens camp, is from Florida which may make them a possibility, and Rangers may be looking at him.

Bruce Garrioch: Penguins GM Ray Shero has been looking around the league to see what he could get for defenseman Matt Niskanen, who will be a UFA at the end of the season.

Jacob Markstrom odoslaný ku San Antonio Rampage (AHL) Nič prekvapivé

Kuwo:

„Možná chce odejít, protože v listopadu je tam 32 pod nulou. Dokážete si to představit? Sníh tam leží osm měsíců v roce.“

V minulosti hájil Ilja Bryzgalov Chrise Prongera, když si vynutil odchod z Edmontonu. Včera podepsal ruský brankář s Oilers smlouvu. (nhl.cz)

Reid Wilkins: Bob Stauffer says Bryz will likely play a game or two in OKC on conditioning assignment before making Oilers debut.

Podle zákulisních informací jednalo včera vedení Edmontonu ještě o výměně Aleše Hemského do Philadelphie za obránce Lukea Schenna a útočníka Waynea Simmondse, generální manažer Craig MacTavish ale popřel, že by k nějakému obchodu v nejbližší době mělo dojít. Flyers mají prý ostatně větší zájem o Jordana Eberleho než o českého útočníka, ve hře je i odchod Naila Jakupova od Oilers. (nhl.cz)

Florida zapsala na listinu volných hráčů obránce Ryana Whitneyho. Třicetiletý veterán stihl za Pantery, s nimiž koncem září podepsal roční smlouvu za 900 tisíc dolarů, odehrát šest zápasů, dalších deset proseděl na tribuně. (nhl.cz)

Shelly Anderson: Penguins coach Dan Bylsma on Pascal Dupuis: “It’s maintenance at this point in time. We’ll see how he continues to do tomorrow and toward the weekend for Saturday’s game. At this point it’s not more than that.”

Jason Arnott ukončil kariéru

Darren Dreger of TSN: Maple Leafs GM Dave Nonis are looking for a forward, preferably a center. Talk talks are increasing, but there isn’t a lot available now. They have the assets for a higher end player where the return requires a premium of a young roster player, top prospect and a pick. They may be willing to pay that price for the right players, but more likely to use their depth on the blueline or draft picks in a smaller trade.

Pittsburgh Penguins: James Neal skated by himself yesterday morning for an extended period of time. Beau Bennett practiced. Coach Dan Bylsma expects them to do the same today.
