*-> TSN has reported that the Florida Panthers are in talks with goaltender Tomas Vokoun whose contract is up this summer. The Panthers are rumored to be feeling out Vokoun's intentions and getting notice sooner than later so the Cats could move Vokoun close to the deadline if a deal couldn't get done so they don't lose him for nothing. The Ottawa Senators have been long linked to Vokoun but it's being said now that the Panthers would like to give Jacob Markstrom another season of an AHL workload.
*-> Reports out of St. Louis have the contract between Kyle Wellwood and the Blues stalled over the 2 way clause. The Blue missed the December 15th cut off to sign a play to a 2 way deal and if he did clear waivers the Blues would have to take the full hit although he'd be in the minors. St. Louis management is still exploring other options now with this signing on hold.
*-> J.D Watt formerly of the Calgary Flames has accepted a try-out contract with the San Antonio Rampage this morning.
*-> More Ottawa news this morning as reports have the Sens looking at Los Angeles goalie Jonathan Quick. Reports also have off season transaction Sergei Gonchar also available. I'm still not sold the Senator organization is ready to blow up the team completely as most statements from the management has just shown they want to make a major move but believe in their core roster still. Ether way the Sens have to do something soon.
*-> Former Ottawa Senator Michael Barinka has signed a deal with Lokomotiv Yaroslav leaving HC Vitkovic of the Czech Extra Liga.
