Ice Scoopz: Monday Afternoon

*-> The Nashville Preditors have indicated they would welcome Russian defect Alexander Radulov back just as long as he returns before July 1st. Dave Poille is willing to forgive an forget as long as he stays loyal to his club. There has been no indication Radulov is willing to leave his Khl club to return to the NHL at this curent time.

*-> In other Nashville news, defenseman Greg DeVries has stated he believes his days are numbered in the music city. Although he doesn't believe he'll return he does believe he'll still be playing hockey next season.

*-> Pittsburgh Penguin Bill Guerin has decided he would like to play another season in the NHL and avoid retirement for one more year. The only factor is for what team? Guerin would love to return to Pittsburgh as long as they keep the momentum going and aim for another cup.

*-> Speaking of aging superstars Mike Modano has also indicated he will be returning to the NHL after contemplating retirement as well. He has one more year in his contract with the Dallas Stars.

*-> The Carolina Hurricanes have liked the job Paul Maurice has done so much they have agreed to a 3 year deal with him early this morning.

*-> Finally the Philadelphia Flyers may not be done with signing North American KHL goalie castoffs. TSN has reported that the Flyers have serious interest in former Flyer Robert Esche. Esche still has a year in his contract would only be allowed to leave if his KHL team can find an equal goalie to replace him.

Well that's it for now, more rumors later including some Heatley rumors that are starting to HEAT up.
