*-> RFA Bobby Ryan has attracted a bit of interest from around the league. Several teams have considered tendering him an offer sheet. While the Anaheim Ducks have said they would match any offers for him it is possible for a team to swoop in and out bid the Ducks. The Vancouver Canucks are rumored to be thinking about it while the Toronto Maple Leafs have had mild interest from the get go dating back to Brian Burkes days in California. The Ducks however are not actively shopping Ryan.
*-> Patrick Thoresen of Salavat UFA is thinking of making a return to the NHL this season. Thoresen has an offer from the Ducks he's sitting on but more than likely he'll return to the KHL where he'll be a star instead of a plugger in the NHL.
*-> Tim Conboy formerly of the Carolina Hurricanes has signed in Buffalo with the Sabres.
*-> Sean Bergenheim is considering a return back to Europe with Frolunda. Several Swedish teams have had interest in the Islander.
*-> The Detroit Red Wings are still waiting on Mike Modano to make a decision. They have yet to resign Andreas Lilja and Kirk Maltby but are waiting for Modano to decide if he'll be a Red Wing. Modano doesn't have many offers out there but the Minnesota Wild are still believed to be interested but the common consensus is its going to be Detroit or nothing.
