Ice Scoopz: Monday Morning

A really really slow hockey weekend so hopefully things heat up as the Ilya Kovalchuk verdict will be heard. Ill post the news as soon as I hear anything. However it should be a go and if not New Jersey will find away despite the rumors out there saying both New York teams are going to come forward with offers. If Kovalchuk showed loyal once by resigning with the Devils he'll do it again.

*-> Free agent goaltender David Leggio of TPS has signed a deal in hometown Buffalo for the Sabres. He'll report to the AHL its expected.

*-> Vesa Toskala formerly of the Calgary Flames is rumored to be on the verge of signing with Farjestad of the Swedish Elite League today.

*-> The Chicago Blackhawks are rumored to be trying to push goaltender Cristobal Huet to Europe. Sources close to the team are saying that the club is trying to move the gosalie but no luck with his contract. The Hawk believe it or not still have interest in Niemi its said. A team in the Swiss league is rumored to be prepared to take Huets salary on in a loan but the goaltender and his agent are determined to keep him in the NHL at all costs.
