Nightly Wrap-Around: Filatov Fever
- Steve Yzerman has been named Executive Director of the Canadian Olympic Team for the 2010 games in Vancouver. Can you ever go wrong with Steve Yzerman? In a word–no. Here is Eric Duhatchek’s take on the deal.
- Matt Greene has signed a five year, $14.75 million deal. Greene doesn’t provide offense but is a physical, stay-at-home defenseman who is entering his prime years. An average of just under three million dollars is about the going rate for that type of player.
- The boys at Coming Down the Pipeline told people to look out for Nikita Filatov before tonight’s game began, and the youngster already has a goal. The line of Murray-Modin-Filatov has looked sharp.
- With the Penguins struggling, they have reunited Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin. May as well load up and see what comes of it.
- The Canucks have waived Kyle Wellwood. He is headed for an AHL city near you.
- Battle of California likes the move of Alexander Frolov to the Kings’ checking line. Don’t know how long this will last.
- The Blues’ Chris Mason will miss two weeks after having an appendectomy. Legace should pick up the slack.
- Wondering why Thomas Vanek is looking better this season? Matt Higgins of the NY Times tells us. Good piece by Higgins.
