Note: Reminder that the Illegal Curve Hockey Show on TSN Radio 1290 is now on summer hours. This means the show will broadcast from 10 am to noon today. Join us for two hours of exciting hockey talk. Guests: Bob Murray, who is Zach Bogosian’s agent (Pro-Athletes Management Inc.). Steve Ladurantaye (Globe and Mail).
Jets news:
The only Jets news for today will be when you tune into the IC Hockey Show and listen to Zach Bogosian’s agent talk about the seven year contract his client just signed. That interview will be at 10:30 am (and will be available for replay on site shortly thereafter).
If you missed it, you can hear Zach Bogosian’s conference call he held with the media after the deal was completed.

CBC: Kings re-sign forward Kyle Clifford to two-year deal. The last of the Kings free agent pool was signed.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Blues sign Paajarvi to two-year extension. Seems like the only team to be making any news lately is St. Louis as they follow up the Bouwmeester deal with this one.
