Edmonton has acquired Lubomir Visnovsky from LA. Going the other way is Jarret Stoll and Matt Greene. Brian Rolston's rights have been dealt to Tampa Bay. Malone-Stamkos-Rolston. Not too shabby. Adam Foote has re-signed with the Avalanche on a two year deal. He will make $3 million per. John-Michael Liles has re-signed with Colorado. He signed a four-year [...]
TSN: "The Calgary Flames announced Friday that the team has re-signed centres Craig Conroy and Daymond Langkow, left wing Eric Nystrom and goaltender Curtis McElhinney."

With the NHL's announcement that the salary cap is $56.7 million and the floor is $40.7 million, look for a lot of announcements shortly - as teams such as the Flames were holding back the official announcement of a contract with Daymond Langkow until the cap was announced. Martin Straka has not officially signed to play [...]
Angus here, whats up gang. Scott Niedermayer will be confirming his return, possibly as early as tomorrow. The source is the Ducks official blog on their site. Will be very interesting to see how they handle RFA-to-be Corey Perry. The Newsday out of New York is reporting that Jay Bouwmeester is unhappy with the Jokinen [...]

The arrival of Boynton and Ballard in Florida makes it unlikely that Cory Murphy will ever get in the [...]
