Ice Scoopz: Sunday Morning

A few more tryouts to annouce. It seams like this is becoming an increasing trend in the salary cap era.

*-> Jassen Cullimore has been invited to the Anaheim Ducks camp.

*-> Tough guy Andrew Peters has received an offer from the New Jersey Devils to tryout with the club.

*-> Russ Lupaschuck has received an invite to the Phoenix Camp.

*-> Defenseman Keith Carney has received a tryout with the Canucks but has opted to retire yet again.

*-> Mark Mancari of the Buffalo Sabres has told the Sabres organization that he will not attend their training camp and has officially asked for a trade.

*-> Phil Kessel is starting to attract lots of attention. Rumors have the Toronto Maple Leafs contemplating an offer sheet offer. Nashville Preditors also have openly said they are interested as well but are looking to avoid the offer sheet root however.The New Jersey Devils are also rumored to be after Kessel as well.

*-> Theo Fleury is rumored to have signed a deal with the Flames and not just a training camp invite. The deal is rumored to be worth 450K and for only one year. Not too sure about this one but I'm going to top into it.

*- Nikolai Zherdev to the Edmonton Oilers is gaining ground but I'm also hearing the Nashville Preditors have inquired about the enigmatic winger as well.

*-> Speaking of Nashville their currently trying to work out a deal with Petr Sykora. The Minnesota Wild are also considering signing Sykora but his demands are currently exceeding their budget of 2 mil.
