- Louis Jean: Francois Allaire has been contacted by several teams, “I can’t say for certain I’ll be back in the NHL I’ve done this job for 28 years. At the same time I’m not saying I’m not interested. We’ll evaluate the opportunities.”
- Andy Strickland: The Blues have signed defenseman Ian Cole to a two-year contract extension, $825,000 per season.
- Sarah McLellan: Coyotes GM Don Maloney said that he’s been talking to coach Dave Tippett. Need to come to an understanding to make him confident to remain with the team. Goalie Mike Smith could be the next priority after that.
