*-> TSN has confirmed that future Hall of Famer Chris Chelios is in talks with the KHL club Vityaz about a possible signing. Chelios has reportedly told his agent to spread the word he is avaliable and would like to return to hockey yet again. While he said he is in talks with former NHLer and teammate GM Alexei Zhamnov he said his age (48) most likely means nothing will come of it. Good for Chelly though for still trying to play, the way I see it is as long as you can still contribute in some way why not try to make a living off it?
*-> A correction or footnote on yesterdays waiving of Garnett Exelby, it appears the Chicago Blackhawks also signed him that very day as well to a 1 year deal on a 2 way contract.
*-> As a follow up no news yet on any claims for Petr Prucha, Peter Schafer and or Garnett Exelby but we should hear shortly. I've seen some reports of the New York Islanders putting in a claim for Prucha, we'll have to stay tuned on that one. I can see Prucha being claimed he's affordable and can help out on the second line for any teams looking for help. I'm still hearing Nashville..
*-> Marc-Andre Bergeron is not in Montreals sites at all sources close to the team are saying now, so as I figured looks to be Tampa Bay unless another suitor jumps out.
That's it for now, a couple hits late about a recent Ottawa/Vokoun rumour and a possible tradeline day deal involving the Leafs. see you then.
