Did anyone else see that Richard Zednik goal? Frigging beautiful! I thought that guy was done after his neck injury last season but I was definatly wrong. Heres the rest of tonights rumors..
*-> Jussi Jokinen was placed on waivers this afternoon by the Tampa Bay Lightning. He is expected to clear tomorow at noon and be sent down to the AHL. Although a few teams have expsressed interest like the Dallas Stars, they most likely will wait to see if he enters re-entry waivers later on in the season before pouncing.
*-> The Edmonton Oilers have begun shopping Erik Cole around the league. The Oilers are trying to find an elite player for Ales Hemsky to play with and hope by dangling Erik Cole they'll be able to find a trading partner. The Boston Bruins are apparently interested and Edmonton scouts have been seen watching the Bruin's the past few games. The Bruins have a few young players they could part with but it is highly unlikely the Oilers will be able to land one of the Bruins top line players. Marco Sturm is an option as the Oilers may not make the playoffs so since Sturm is out of the picture till the end of the season it works out. Hes affordable at 3.5$ for another 2 years. It works out for the Bruins because they'll get the support their missing from Sturms absence. Another possible target and has been the subject of the rumors is Bruin's prospect Vladimir Sobotka. The Oilers appear to be interested in Sobotka and a mid range draft pick could seal the deal although it's not the Hemsky partner they desire.
