Ice Scoopz: Tuesday Afternoon

Still not feeling so great but I'm fighting through it. Back at work now so why not back to blogging is the way I see it.

*-> Michael Nylander is still without any interest yet. The Washington Capitals have recalled him from Hersey and he is expected to begin playing as soon as Thursday. It looks like the Caps are stuck with him.

*-> The Detroit Red Wings are still searching for a starting goalie. Many pundits still believe that the lack of a net presence may cause them to miss the postseason. A rumor that has been going around is they may be trying to put together a package for Carey Price. I find this one highly unlikely as I doubt Montreal will move Price unless Halak can 100% show he's there guy and even then it would have to be over Gaineys dead body. The Wings don't have many options left but Manny Fernandez and former Wing Manny Legace via fee agency and there's nothing available for trade other than Toskala who has cap and well goaltending problems. He would be a good fit if he can clear his head and start playing the way he's capable of. The Leafs would still have to reentry him but they won't do that till they find themselves a goalie first.
