Ice Scoopz: Friday Noon

*-> Matt Moulson has officially resigned with the New York Islanders this morning TSN has reported. The deal is a 3 year deal worth 9.7$ million overall. This should silence all those people saying Moulson was on the market.

*-> The Chicago Blackhawks have been looking at defensemen this past week. Some are saying Chris Phillips has been on their radar as well as Mike Commodore. Mike Commodore would have to be placed on re-entry waivers first. Bowman wants a steady reliable shut down defenseman to add depth to his roster incase one of his defenseman go down before a playoff run.

*-> Speaking of Chicago, former Hawk Kim Johnsson is ready to return and has now told teams around the NHL he would like to return to action. The Hawks may be interested if their search turns up empty handed.

*-> The St. Louis Blues are reportedly still looking for an offensive forward but don't want a quick fix, they'd rather trade for a young prospect. Nikita Filatov could be a potential pick up for a decent price but to me it's not a permanent solution.
