Flyers to name Richards captain; Hatcher won't be in camp

Philadelphia Daily News
"
When Mike Richards first arrived in Philadelphia, he was talked about as the Flyers' captain of the future. The future is now. According to team sources, Richards will be named the team's 17th captain in an announcement tomorrow. Richards, 23, was one of several players under consideration for the position along with Kimmo Timonen and Simon Gagne. Discussions were held with the three players over the last few days and it was decided yesterday that Richards would be given the "C." Richards had a breakout season last year as an assistant captain, establishing himself as one of the top young players in the league. He has been reluctant to talk on the record about taking the position out of ...

Berard has sights set on landing job

Boston Globe
"
The eye isn't much of a problem. In fact, said Bryan Berard, he barely ever thinks about it, more than eight years after the sight in his right eye was all but extinguished when he was gouged by Marian Hossa's errant stick. "To be honest, the eye's not an issue anymore," said Berard, not long before finishing his summer workouts here in Boston and heading south with only the promise of a tryout awaiting him in Philadelphia. "It took a couple of years to get used to it, for my brain and body to adjust, but I don't even think about it now. Not an issue." More delicate and irksome of late, though, has been Berard's back, along with other niggling injuries. In his two seasons with Columbus ...

The Tampa Bay Lightning are believed to be the latest club interested in obtaining free agent Mats Sundin - if he decides to play again. While the NHL community awaits Sundin's decision, his agent, J.P. Barry, confirmed two more clubs have recently expressed interest in his client. Barry would not reveal the two new teams that have joined the Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, New York Rangers and Philadelphia Flyers in the pursuit of the veteran centre, but one is believed to be the Lightning. Sundin not only met with Leafs general manager Cliff Fletcher last Friday and Canadiens boss Bob Gainey on Saturday in Toronto, he also played in the Right to Play charity ...

Brendan Shanahan, his wife and their three young children are moving back to their midtown Manhattan apartment this week from their summer home in Cape Cod. School, after all, begins on Thursday. But as much as Shanahan - not just unsigned, but as yet even offered a contract by GM Glen Sather with training camp scheduled to open on Sept. 16 - wants to return for a third season with the Rangers, the free agent winger is prepared to investigate other opportunities. Even if that means moving across the country. "That would obviously be a family conversation," Shanahan, whose twins, Maggie and Jack, are almost six and whose daughter, Catherine, is almost four, told The Post. "But it's not like ...

Vancouver Sun
"
The agent for free-agent centre Mats Sundin says his client may not make a decision about whether to continue his National Hockey League career until after the start of the regular season. J.P. Barry said Wednesday that a decision by Sundin is not imminent and suggested there is no guarantee that Sundin will meet his self-imposed, end-of-August deadline to decide whether he will play this season. "We are going to talk to him later this week just to get an update from him, but right now we are not putting any pressure on him because he has to get that feeling that he wants to play," Barry said. "But right now, he's no closer." Barry did not rule out the 37-year-old Sundin following a path ...

The 2007-08 edition of the Toronto Maple Leafs' media guide is as much a resource for player preferences as it is for player stats. According to the NHL team guide, Mats Sundin wants to meet human-rights activist Nelson Mandela, enjoys vacationing in the Swedish colony of Saint Barth and "would be an electrician" had he not been so skilled with the puck. It also reveals that the 37-year-old loves playing in Manhattan, listing New York and Madison Square Garden as his favourite road city and arena. So it hardly comes as a surprise that the Rangers, who recently lost Jaromir Jagr to the new Continental Hockey League in Russia, are on the shortlist of teams that Sundin would not mind playing ...

Flyers eye Panthers' Bouwmeester

When defenseman Jay Bouwmeester and the Florida Panthers avoided arbitration and came to terms on a one-year contract worth $4.9 million on Monday, warning flares went up around the NHL. By turning down a long-term contract offer, Bouwmeester made it clear his days in Florida are numbered and that his promising NHL career is likely to continue somewhere north of Miami. But where? And for what price? A hard-hitting, smooth-skating 6-foot-4, 212 pounder, Bouwmeester led all NHL players in average ice time last season with 27:28. He has played in all 82 games for the Panthers in each of the last three seasons and his offensive numbers have climbed each year, from five goals to 12 to 15. "He's ...

Right winger Joffrey Lupul is close to signing a four-year contract extension with the Flyers. Lupul, who had the second 20-goal season of his career last season, denied an Edmonton radio report that he had agreed to a four-year extension, but he acknowledged that the sides were near a deal. "We're still talking, but it's not finished yet," he said yesterday. "Hopefully, it'll get done early next week." Lupul, 24, whose contract for 2008-09 is for $2.3 million, scored 20 goals and added 26 assists in 56 games with the Flyers last season.

The Vancouver Canucks are one of three teams in the running for veteran defenseman, Dan Boyle. Sources tell TSN the Canucks, San Jose Sharks and Philadelphia Flyers are the three teams Boyle is considering, however he has yet to waive his no-trade clause to clear the way for a trade. The belief is Boyle will consent to trade at some point today and will select the team of his choice, however until he officially waives his no-trade, there is always a chance the Lightning's efforts to move him may be scuttled.

The Kings are expected to re-sign defenseman and team captain Rob Blake to a one-year contract today, and are also in the running for defenseman Brad Stuart, whom the Kings signed to a one-year contract last summer and traded to the Stanley Cup champion Detroit Red Wings just before last season's deadline. Jaroslav Modry, also signed last summer and traded to Philadelphia, is also a candidate to return. The Kings have significant room to spend this summer under the $56.7-million salary cap but are expected to start next season closer to the salary-cap "floor," which has been set at $40 million.

Holmgren's immediate job will be finishing the deals he is working on with restricted free agents Jeff Carter, Randy Jones and Riley Cote. Holmgren said the Flyers are very close to finalizing a multiyear deal with Carter, are also close with Cote, and are confident they can get Jones on paper before free agency opens July 1. Eminger, acquired along with a third-round pick (which was used to draft goalie Jacob DeSerres) from the Capitals for the 27th pick overall, is also going to be without a contract July 1, but Holmgren said it will not be a difficult negotiation. Eminger made $1 million last season. When all those contracts are completed, Holmgren will have to deal with his ...

For the Flyers, there was a central theme to their weekend in Ottawa: bulk up the defense - for the present and the future. In addition to acquiring Washington defenseman Steve Eminger, a former No. 1 pick who they expect to be a part of their six-man rotation, the Flyers drafted two defensemen and two goalies among their five picks in the draft, which ended yesterday. They also freed cap space, making it easier to land another much-needed, puck-moving defenseman, such as Montreal's Mark Streit.

Murray has held talks with several GMs about a number of forwards. It's believed Bruins winger Glen Murray and Flyers centre R.J. Umberger are two forwards that interest the Senators. There has been speculation in Boston that Murray, 35, who is going into the final year of a contract that pays him $4.15 million (all terms US), will be bought out by the Bruins. But with a cap hit of $1.8 million a season for the next two years, the Bruins would prefer to trade Murray.

The Maple Leafs can get a front-line NHL defenceman from their bitter rivals -- if they're willing to pay. Sun Media reports free agent Wade Redden definitely won't be back with the Ottawa Senators after he refused to take a massive hometown discount to remain in the nation's capital. Redden who made $6.5 million US in a sub-par 2007-08, was approached by the club to take a pay cut between $3.5 and $4 million. The Florida Panthers, run by Redden's ex-Ottawa coach Jacques Martin, are the front-runners to sign him, with the Leafs thought to be in a group of clubs including Chicago, Nashville and Philadelphia.

Holmgren planning to address inconsistency

"We had some stretches last year when we weren't very good. There are some areas where our consistency needs to get better. Over the next couple months, there are some areas we need to get better. When training camp opens, players are going to be challenged by us and by the coaches." One of the big question marks is the status of Derian Hatcher, who has one more year remaining on his $3.5 million salary. Holmgren did pick up a modest $1.25 million salary cap space with the retirement of Sami Kapanen on Tuesday, but he would need a lot more room to lure a Brian Campbell or Wade Redden into the fold. However, if Hatcher discovered this summer that his bad knee can't take the rigors of ...
