 Andrej Meszaros signed for six years with TB at $24 million. His presense will help Carle in a big way, freeing him up for more rushes as I assume the two will play together. The Guide will be updated later today, probably early in the afternoon. Just getting the Meszaros stuff translated. The Draft List should be [...]

 The Blue Jackets have signed skilled winger Maxim Mayorov to a three-year entry-level contract. He is still a couple of years away, but still - this news will push him way up the Fantasy Prospects List (he is currently ranked 131). Once promising defenseman Mark Popovic has signed to play in the KHL next season. Monday [...]

It was a little under a year ago that DobberHockey first brought you an exclusive look at the 2008 and 2009 draft classes. With the next draft just one season away, it's time to see how the favorites are doing and who else has appeared on the scene since.

 I just confirmed with the Anaheim organization that Joakim Lindstrom's contract is a two-way deal. Barring a phenomenal camp, I doubt he'll stick for the full season, as a result of this news. The Toronto Star is speculating that Mats Sundin may not make a decision until midway through the season a la Scott Niedermayer. He [...]

 The Ducks have signed newly-acquired Joakim Lindstrom to a one-year deal. I will try and find out if it is one-way or two-way. If a one-way, look for Lindstrom to get an opportunity on the second line. He is ranked 91st on my Fantasy Prospects List, but with the new team he moves up and [...]

 Those of you with a lot of Avs holding their breath can rest easy now. Joe Sakic will be back for one more year. Essentially, that means that the likes of Stastny, Smyth, Hejduk and Liles will see the offense expected of them. Without Sakic, it may have meant a 5% drop (or more). The [...]

 Naslund, Bertuzzi and Morrison

 

The once vaunted trio of Markus Naslund, Brendan Morrison, and Todd Bertuzzi are now all located on different NHL clubs – none of them being Vancouver. From 2002-2004, they dominated the Western Conference and the rest of the NHL on a nightly basis. All three are coming off disappointing seasons and are looking to rebound in new environments. Will it happen? Read on…
