Ice Scoopz: Tuesday Morning

*-> Todd Bertuzzi has signed a 1 year deal worth 1.5$mil with his former club the Detroit Red Wings. This seams like a good deal to be. Bertuzzi is a reliable second line offensive source.
*-> The New York Rangers have signed Vaclav Prospal to a one year deal worth 1.1$mil per season. Prospal at 1.1$m is a great deal. He's still a consistent scorer and should easily replace Nikolai Zherdev.

*-> The New Jersey Devils are extremely close to signing Justin Peters. Peters has said his heart is in Buffalo but he doubts they will resign him and he plans to make a decesion shortly.

*-> Former Montreal Canadian Francis Bouillon has had several teams kicking around but no set offers yet. Rumor has it the Canadians are considering a training camp invite and the Pittsburgh Penguins have contacted him about a depth role.

*-> Phillipe Boucher is curently considering retirement after no receiving any decent offers from any NHL teams. The Pittsburgh Penguins have offered him a depth role as a 7th D man but he wants to have a greater role. Boucher also says that the KHL or any other European league is out of the question.

Hey Scoopz,

Mike Keane re-upped for another year with the Moose - unbelievable! Man, the guy obviously has no ego and loves to play.
