On the Beat: Martin Havlat continues to make news

What team beat writers are saying this afternoon:

• Randy Carlyle has only positive things to say about coaching Chris Pronger.  Will be a big loss to that team, but as Carlyle said, it was almost too good an offer to pass up.
• Martin Havlat loves the Hawks, he loves them not… Hossa isn’t going to say that Havlat told him bad things, so let’s not read into this too much.
• The Kings may be close to signing Teddy Purcell and Jack Johnson to new contracts.  Purcell is someone to watch for next season if he’s thrown into a scoring role.
• The Wild has signed Wade Dubielewicz to backup Niklas Backstrom and Josh Harding.  They will most likely deal Harding when the right offer comes along.
• The Flames have acquired Keith Seabrook from Washington.  Depth on defense.
