*-> A rumor was reported this morning on ESPN radio claiming that Rick Dipietro of the New York Islanders was seriously injured in a major car accident this morning. Some outlets have even reported that DiPietro had even passed this morning while most were saying he suffered a broken collar bone, hip and shoulder. The Islanders have released a press statement saying Garth Snow had indeed talked to Rick and he was alright and no such event occurred as it was all a hoax by the anonymous caller. Could be good new or bad news for Islander fans. Good news he wasn't seriously hurt or even involved joking aside.
*-> The Detroit Red Wings are continuing to wait on Mike Modano. Detroit has told several of their other free agents they plan to wait on negotiations with them due to the Modano decision. The American goal scorer has told the media and the Wings it will be Detroit or retirement and won't have a decision before he starts his summer skating in early August. Bad news for Lilja, Helm and Maltby.
*-> The Flyers have re upped winger Darroll Powe to a 1 year deal worth 725K.
*-> Yesterday the Ottawa Senators signed both Nick Foligno and Cody Bass to new deal. Bass earned himself a 1 year deal worth 500K on a 2 way contract while Foligno accepted a 2 year deal worth 1.2 million dollars per season.
More news around noon.
