Ice Scoopz: Tuesday Morning

*-> PJ Axelsson has officially signed in Sweden in the Swedish Elite League with Frolunda this morning.
*-> The Heatley saga is still on going. Not much is new news however. The Oilers are starting to get desperate and have influenced several of their stars to place calls to Heatley. The Oilers have also sent videos of Edmonton to try and sway his mind. The San Jose Sharks have also placed an offer of Jonathan Cheechoo and Christian Erhoff. The Sens however arnt interested.

*-> In other Sens news it appears defenseman Brendan Bell is off to Russia after waiting for an offer from the Sens.

*-> The Tampa Bay Lightning are getting ready to buyout the contract of forward Vaclav Prospal which works out to be 1.9$mil for the next 3 years.

That Sharks offer is terrible, Ehrhoff is a gamble coming off of a career year, and Cheechoo's career has been dying for years.
Good work Murray.

I'd only be interested in Cheechoo if he's a throw in to help balance the cap dollars, like Penner in the Edmonton deal. However, he cannot be the centrepiece, any deal needs a Cogliano-type to make sense for us.

I'm hard pressed to see a deal with SJ that BM could consider equal to the Edmo offer, but I'd think it'd have to include Michalek.
