On the St. Louis Blues …
- Andy Strickland: If Jeremy Roenick is saying that Kevin Shattenkirk wants out of St. Louis, it’s completely false. Have been told that Roenick hasn’t talked to Shattenkirk since the summer.
- Jimmy Murphy: From a reliable source … If the Blues want Loui Eriksson, the asking price is likely a first round draft pick and Dmitrij Jaskin.
- Andy Strickland: Vladimir Sobotka (suspended by Blues) has interest in returning after the KHL playoffs. Blues Gm Doug Armstrong said that next season is a more realistic option.
- Andy Strickland: Sobotka owes the Blues one more season. If he came over this season, he’d be a UFA his offseason.
On the Edmonton Oilers, Pittsburgh Penguins and the Los Angeles Kings …
- Ryan Rishaug: Justin Schultz is still an option for the Pittsburgh Penguins. Teddy Purcell to the Kings is still a legit possibility.
On the Edmonton Oilers, LA Kings and the Florida Panthers …
- Bob McKenzie: The Kings have been in on Teddy Purcell, but the Panthers are thought to be making a big push for him.
On the Florida Panthers and Buffalo Sabres …
- Harvey Fialkov: Told that the Panthers are talking to the Sabres about Jamie McGinn.
- Mike Harrington: McGinn has said twice on their trip that there is no news about a deal. Seems like he’ll be on the move.
On the Florida Panthers …
