Ice Scoopz: Monday Afternoon 2

*-> Petr Sykora has found himself in the doghouse in Minnesota. The experiment is clearly over as he's been a consecutive healthy scratch. The Wild are actively shopping the winger and a few teams are biting. The Wilds asking price is low and their just looking for a 3rd rounder or mid level prospect. The Penguins are rumored to be considering the disgruntled player but mainly because he was a well liked guy in the lockeroom and some players have been reportedly lobbying for him. Another linked team has been the Bruins mainly because of the Sykora/Satan connection and their need for cheep help.

*-> Sheldon Souray has told the media he'd waive his no trade clause and help the Edmonton Oilers out if they needed. Only if the location was right for his family however. The rumor is he'd like to be near his family in Los Angeles. So the Kings could be a fit but with Doughty running the point there might not be a need. San Jose, Florida, Tampa Bay or Anaheim are several other teams that have been listed. However unfortunately for Sheldon only San Jose and LA are contenders and the rest will most likely not be acquiring an over priced 1 dimentional d man.

More to come.

What about Souray to the Sens to quarterback their dismal powerplay? I think he could do that fairly effectively...
