Euro Curve takes a look at the latest international hockey headlines.

-Rumours are swirling that the 2008/2009 NHL season will start with two games between the New York Rangers and the Tampa Bay Lightning at Prague´s Sazka Arena.

– Apparently exiled Phoenix Coyotes Goaltender and Swiss National David Aebischer will sign with HC Lugano of the Swiss League. ( And the deal will run through 2012?!)

– Southern Bohemian Hockey (http://vakfan.blogspot.com/) reports that St.Louis Blues forward Martin Rucinsky might be out of the long term or short plans of team management. He points out that he has been a healthy scratch for the last three games. He mentions Sparta Praha or Ceske Budejovice as possible future destinations for the talented winger.

– A report from Hokej.Cz website says that Ex-Flames Puckstopper Jamie McLennan has inked a deal with the Nippon Paper Cranes in the Japanese Ice Hockey League.
