Ice Scoopz: Sunday Evening

After a nice long weekend off I'm back at the desk and back in action as several training camp invitations were missed while I was away.

*-> Wade Redden was told by the New York Ranger's organization he will not be attending their training camp this season further speculating that the Rangers have plans to buy the defenseman out sometime in the near future. After spending last season playing the the Hartford Wolves, Redden won't get his chance this season to prove his worth during training camp as due to salary constraints and the Rangers moving in a direction on the back end.

*-> Fernando Pisani has excepted a training camp invite to the Columbus Blue Jackets camp.

*-> Anders Eriksson is once again trying to force his way into the NHL as the Vancouver Canucks give the well travelled Swede another look.

*-> As well as Eriksson, Niko Dimitrakos of Adler Mannheim is attempting to make the Vancouver Canucks.

*-> Shaun Heshka of EC Salzburg has received an invite from the Los Angeles Kings as well as Ray Macias of the Lake Erie Monsters.

*-> Alexei Yashin's NHL comeback is still on going. He continues to skate with the Isles as he gathers offers from around the KHL. It's rumored he'll play with the Isle or no-one in the NHL according to reports now but as many as 5 KHL teams have made offers including Vityaz Chekhov who threw in a major offer this weekend.
