*-> Former Toronto Maple Leaf Wayne Primeau who has been skating with the Leafs this summer has been asked to audition for the squad during trainging camp. Along with Primeau veteran Ric Jackman who has been playing in Europe the past few seasons will also make the trip.

*-> The Atlanta Thrashers have decided to invite rugged defenseman Kyle McLaren to training camp. McLaren played for the Worchester Sharks all of last season. Ther Thrashers have also invited former Leaf tough guy Andre Deveaux to camp.

*-> The Boston Bruins have given former Blue Jacket Jordan LaVallee a shot.

*-> Brian Roloff of the Providence Bruins and goalie Zane Kalemba of Norfolk have been invited to the Buffalo Sabres camp.

*-> Tyler Arnason of Dimano Riga of the KHL has headed to sunny Florida to try out for the Florida Panthers.

*-> Eric Perrin who also has been playing in the KHL for Avangard OMSK will also be headed to Florida to try out for the Tampa Bay Lightning.

*-> It's been rumored forward Grant Potulny has come out of retirement to tryout for the Chicago Blackhawks.

*-> Mark Popovic is said to be looking at heading to Europe to play for AIK in Sweden if he doesn't crack the main line up.

*-> Radoslav Suchy of HK SKP Poprad of the Cezech Extra Liga has received interest from both Modo and Frolunda of the Swedish Elite League.

*-> Marc Savard of the Boston Bruins has reportedly been taken off the market after it was released that he still is suffering from post concussion syndrome from Matt Cookes hit last season. It looks like the B's will get some relief this fall from the salary camp and will maintain their roster till both Marco Sturm and Marc Savard get back.

Savard's hit didn't occur during the playoffs, it was in March. Just a heads up...
