NHL Rumors

Penguins Scouting Turco????

Reports are out indicating that scouts from the Pittsburgh Penguins have been trailing the Dallas Stars recently.

With rumors out of Pittsburgh indicating the Penguins are in the market for a goalie, speculation is the scouts are eyeing Dallas keeper of the Crease Marty Turco or possibly a defenseman.

(*my point of view on this issue is – Dallas will not drop or trade Turco, Turco I am also positive does not want to leave Dallas either. But I do think Dallas could part with Norstrom if they are looking for a D-man. this would free up some big cap room for the Stars. Also since last season joining the Stars Matthias has not looked comfy in his present new team.*)

Forsberg just CANT do it !!!!

Monday the long-awaited comeback of forward Peter Forsberg was derailed as quickly as it began. Forsberg left the first day of practice for Sweden’s national team after about an hour, saying his problematic ankle wasn’t holding up.

Forsberg has been up in the air about a possible return to the NHL, until he could test his unstable ankles in competition. Apparently, he didn’t pass his own test and afterward apologized to everybody who’d bought tickets for the tournament to see him play. He said he just realized he’d “made a fool of himself” and simply said: “I just can’t do it.”

Forsberg was scheduled to compete for Sweden in the Karjala Cup, a four-team international tournament that was supposed to give him an indication of whether he could play hockey again at the highest level.

Was there something in the water ????

Wow 8 games on slate last night and what a crazy one it was. Out of those 8 games 5, yes you read right 5, ended in a shutout !!!

Those goalies were:

Pittsburgh – Danny Sabourin

NY Rangers – Henrik Lundqvist

Carolina Hurricanes – Cam Ward

Montreal Candiens – Cristobal Huet

and

Dallas Stars – Marty Turco

I tell you folks I can NOT remember a night of games where the majority of the wins were by shutouts. Did these goalies drink the same water? Also 3 of those 5, were won by at least 5 goals. If this is the start of the week, it should be a helluva roller coaster ride by the end of sunday.
