*-> The Boston Bruins made a few minor league trades last night. The Bruins first dealt defenseman Jeff LeVecchio and forward Jordan Knackstedt to the Florida Panthers for defenseman Sean Zimmerman and a 7th round draft pick. Then they traded forward Levi Nelson to the Tampa Bay Lightning for Juraj Simek.
*-> Rugged defenseman Brendan Witt is looking for a contract. Witt was bought out and released by the New York Islanders last season and now he appears set to make a return to the NHL. His agent has been shopping his services the past week and looks to target a club looking to boost physical play and add leadership. So far no teams have been listed as interested but speculation has the Stars, Canadiens and the Sabres could be inquiring soon if the price is right. Not too sure if any of those teams need a physical d-man except for the Habs after losing O'Byrne except now Yannick Weber has been thrown into the line-up they have an extra man on the backend so it's not likely. Witt may have to settle for a 2 way contract.
