*-> Alex Auld has been claimed off re-entry waivers by the New York Rangers who have been backup starved all season.
*-> Slava Kozlov not even a day after announcing he'd accept a deal has garnered much attention around the league. The LA Kings have already made a pitch as its rumored that they are slowing down on the Ray Whitney ordeal. Kozlov has also attracted interest from the Boston Bruins and many are linking former linemate Marc Savard as a main factor. The Wings seam out of the running at the moment as they ponder their cap situation but the Washington Capitals and the Nashville Predators are still strong. The Habs have mild interest but still focused on Frolov which the Kings won't part with till they get a scoring forward in return.
*-> Tomas Vokoun is reportedly now saying he may waive his no trade clause. He stayed last week he hasn't been asked yet and it was said he wouldn't ether way but now media reports are saying its a maybe. Vokoun has attracted some interest from the Caps and the Blackhawks but it both situations the Panthers would have to take another high priced goalie back in return. Therefor why not stick with a good goalie instead of take a risk and a contract.
*-> Shean Donovan has told the Ottawa media he wouldn't be surprised if he was dealt and has heard Murray has been offering him up. Ottawa looking to clear some cap for a defenseman will likely have to deal a player or two off the roster to make room. Jarkko Ruutu, Chris Neil and Chris Kelly are all playing a 4th line role for Ottawa making roughly 2 mil each so any of the 3 with Donovan could be dealt as well.
