  • Brendan Savage of MLive: A team source confirms that the Red Wings have talked to the Flames about a trade involving Jay Bouwmeester. The Red Wings are $13 million under the salary cap, Bouwmeester carries a $6.68 million cap hit. The Wings only have 6 defenseman under contract: Niklas Kronwall, Jonathan Ericsson, Ian White, Kyle Quincey, Jakub Kindl and Brendan Smith.
  • Pat Leonard of the NY Daily News: The Rangers remain one of the favorites to land Shane Doan. He’s only visited the Canucks, Flyers and Rangers. Doan’s agent has confirmed that a team outside of New York has offered him a 4 year deal worth at least $7 million per season.
  • Josh Cooper of the Tennessean: Shea Weber and the Predators are still talking about adding a no-trade or no-movement clause. One wasn’t included in the initial offer sheet from Philadelphia.
  • Sam Carchidi via Sulia: Based on what Flyers GM Paul Holmgren said the other day, Carchidi wouldn’t be surprised if the Flyers stand pat with their defense, and went with the kids. They could make a move during the season when they have more cap space.
  • Philadelphia Flyers via twitter: The Flyers have signed 2012 1st round pick Scott Laughton and re-signed defenseman Marc-Andre Bourdon to a multi-year deal. Tim Panaccio via twitter: Bourdon gets a 2 year deal at a $612,500 cap hit. Dustin Leed via twitter: Leed points out that the 2 signings now put them at 50 contracts.
  • Andy Strickland of True Hockey: If a lockout occurs for the start of the NHL season, sources say that Blues prospect Vladimir Tarasenko would start the year in the KHL and not in the AHL. It’s not uncommon for Europeans to remain in their homeland during lockouts. Strickland has been told that there is a European assignment clause in his contract should the NHL season not start on time. Carlo Colaiacovo appears to be close to signing a NHL deal, though nothing is imminent. The Red Wings and Flyers have shown some interest. Both teams are also looking at trade possibilities. The Blues haven’t shut the door on bringing Colaiacovo back.
  • Katie Strang via twitter: Bill Daly described yesterday’s CBA talks as “tense” but added there were some “strongly-held views.” Daly said that supplementary discipline was an important issue but wasn’t sure if their suggestions would improve the system. The overarching supp. discipline system was apart of the talks, not the appeals process.
