| Bruins GM assures Marc Savard he won't be traded (SportingNews.com) |
| Apparently unsatisfied with the offers he received for Marc Savard, Boston Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli on Friday said he won't be trading the high-priced center. "We told Marc we are not moving him and he is part of the organization," Chiarelli told ESPNBoston.com. Chiarelli acknowledged fielding proposals for Savard, who is one of the league's top playmakers. Chiarelli broke from his usual policy of not discussing trade rumors, saying he was addressing the Savard talk because it became public. |

| Suit threatened if Marc Savard contract is voided (SportingNews.com) |
| Boston Bruins center Marc Savard has had enough with speculation over whether the NHL might void his seven-year, $28 million contract. His agent, Larry Kelly, on Thursday threatened to sue the league if the deal is rejected. Savard signed his extension last season, at which time the league OK'd it. Now, following fallout from Ilya Kovalchuk's contracts with the New Jersey Devils, the league is poking into several long-term deals to see if they, too, violate terms of the collective bargaining agreement. |

| Flyers Team Report (Yahoo! Sports) |
| After weeks of silence, the Flyers' training facility in Voorhees, N.J., has come alive with sounds of skates cutting ice and pucks ringing off goalposts.
In his second-floor office that overlooks the rink, Flyers general manager Paul Holmgren is hoping his offseason moves will help the Flyers return to the Stanley Cup Final, something the Penguins and Red Wings managed in 2008 and 2009.
"I think we're deeper on defense, but I also think we've learned from the experience of the playoffs and I think we can use that to our advantage," Holmgren said. "I think the carrot that's hanging in front of them is we just went to the Final and there's a next step they need to take. Teams have done it." The Penguins lost to the Red Wings in the 2008 Final, then returned to beat... |

| Sharks sign G Antti Niemi to 1-year deal (AP) |
| The San Jose Sharks signed the goalie who helped knock them out of the playoffs, agreeing to a one-year, $2 million deal with Antti Niemi on Thursday. Niemi joins fellow Finnish netminder Antero Niittymaki in San Jose as the replacements for longtime starter Evgeni Nabokov. Niittymaki signed a two-year, $4 million deal on the first day of free agency in July. |

| Andrei Markov pushing recovery from knee surgery (SportingNews.com) |
| Montreal Canadiens defenseman Andrei Markov appears to be ahead of schedule in his recovery from knee surgery, according to Canada's Rogers Sportsnet's website. Markov was injured April 30 during the Stanley Cup playoffs. He had surgery May 18 and began an expected six-month rehab. A quick healer, Markov has resumed skating and could rejoin the Habs in December, rather than February as expected, Sportsnet.ca reports, citing comments from Markov's agent. |

| NHL rolls out array of network coverage for 2010-11 (SportingNews.com) |
| Get ready for all the hockey your eyeballs can handle on North American television outlets, thanks to release of the 2010-11 NHL television schedule. Regular-season games begin on Oct. 7 live from Helsinki, Finland, and end with the hoisting of the Stanley Cup in mid-June. The largest dose will be on Canadian national TV, including the 58th season of Hockey Night in Canada on CBC. Versus, prime cable home of the NHL in the U.S., will show 78 games, an increase of 13 over last season. |

| Steve Downie gets two-year deal with Tampa Bay Lightning (SportingNews.com) |
| Steve Downie's rise as an NHL player continued Wednesday as the Tampa Bay Lightning announced they signed the restricted free-agent winger to a two-year, $3.7 million deal. Not bad for a guy who early in his career was criticized for stupid penalties, foolish fights and a 20-game suspension. Downie, 23, showed maturity to go with his skill and toughness last season, his first with the Lightning, and finished with 22 goals, 24 assists, a team-best plus-14 and a 19.0 shooting percentage that was tied for fourth in the NHL. |

| Joffrey Lupul injured, will miss Ducks camp, start of season (SportingNews.com) |
| Anaheim Ducks forward Joffrey Lupul, a three-time 20-goal scorer, will miss training camp and probably the start of the 2010-11 NHL season while dealing with a blood infection in his back, the byproduct of surgery to repair a herniated disk last December. Lupul told the Orange County Register he had to stop training about a month ago because of discomfort in his back. Blood tests showed the infection had returned. Lupul was placed back on antibiotics and told to refrain from physical activity. |

| Predators reward rising scorer Patric Hornqvist with three-year deal (SportingNews.com) |
| Patric Hornqvist is hockey's version of the NFL's Mr. Irrelevant -- the last player chosen in his draft class. Little is expected of such players. Certainly nothing worth a three-year, $9.25 million contract after two NHL seasons. Yet on Tuesday the Nashville Predators rewarded Hornqvist, the 270th and final pick of the 2005 draft, with a whopper of a deal. Established, albeit fading, stars will work next season for less than Hornqvist. Few of them have come as far as this 23-year-old winger from Sweden, who last season emerged as a scoring star for a... |

| Concussion debate highlights world hockey summit (AP) |
| One of hockey's top doctors warns of the danger of players returning too soon from head injuries. Dr. Mark Aubry, the chief medical officer of the International Ice Hockey Federation, said recent studies and reports on the severity of concussions have heightened awareness. "I think it makes us stand up ... |

| NHL has its share of problems (The Montreal Gazette) |
| I am excited, and I hope you are, too, that NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly went on record with "where hockey might be headed," supporting his pleasure with a flood of "who could have imagined" examples under his byline in Saturday's Gazette. |
