Ice Scoopz: Tuesday Noon

*-> More and more Tim Connolly rumors, the Los Angeles Kings are rumored to be in on the mix now. The Penguins and Capitals both have serious interest. Around the web it looks like a deal could be happening sooner than later. The word is that once the Buffalo sale goes through officially and the ownership meets with Darcy Regier and his team the Sabre's will start making moves. It's still adding but not subtracting unless it's UFA's they can get equal or better players for.

*-> Bob McKenzie has said that he doubts that the Los Angeles Kings arn't willing to part with Wayne Simmonds or any of their young talent.

*-> The Los Angeles Kings have inquired about Florida's David Booth but the Panthers want an arm and a leg for Booth. Florida is said to be asking for Brayden Schenn. Los Angeles has been scouting Florida for quite some time now but could also be looking at Stephen Weiss.

*-> Bob McKenzie also Twittered that Toronto could be in on defenseman John Michael Liles as their seeking a defensemen or his type. It is rumored that the Aves would love to move Liles and his contract while he's hot. Another name I've heard Toronto to be looking at is Denis Wideman.

*-> Colorado also is reportedly shopping Peter Stastny according to rumors. I'm not buying into these rumors however, I can't see Stastny being shopped especially with his contract.

*-> The Philly Flyers are to reported to have up to 6 teams interested in Nikolay Zherdev. The Flyers appear hesistent to deal him unless they can get a better replacement.
