Ice Scoopz: Wednesday Afternoon

*-> Willie Mitchell is starting to gain a lot of attention the past few weeks and has been flirting with several teams. Mitchell has been training with the Los Angeles Kings the past week but also has taken a physical for the San Jose Sharks to prove he's in game shape and has no lingering effects from his head injuries. His agent has also stated the Mitchell has been speaking to the Washington Capitols as well. The Capitols signing Eric Belanger hinges on a apparent trade of a defenseman and that is believed to being held up by the Caps interest in Willie Mitchell. If that falls through a trade could most likely happen.

*-> Fredrik Modin has admitted to having several suitors including one recent bidder but he has said he's not ready to chose a team yet although he expects to sign a deal with an NHL club this season. He also said Europes not an option for him at this point in his career and wouldn't be a good fit for his family who lives and goes to school in Columbus.

*-> Yesterday Sean Bergenheim signed a 1 year deal with the Tampa Bay Lightning to give the Bolts some depth on the wing.
