He's playing with Västerås in Allsvenskan. It's a done lockout deal.

Nope, it's gonna be the Houston Aeros (Minnesota). More well-rounded team. All their prospects will be there.

I'd expect Eberle at the least and Hall probably should as well to sign with European clubs.

Zidlicky is apparently playing for HC Kladno with Plek and Jagr. Read it on the Devils' hockeybuzz writer.

Can't find a source atm though.

No.

Kind of weird if you ask me.

Niklas Oskar Bäckström signed in the KHL with Dinamo Minsk. That was just reported at their official site: http://hcdinamo.by/niklas-bekstrem-v-dinamo-minsk/

Yeah I wrote that here today, Zids joined Pleks, Jagr and Tlusty in Kladno. I have only Czech source, but google translate could give some basic insight.




By the way - Radek Martinek is close to signing with Mountfield Ceske Budejovice (Extraliga - Cze) and apparently also Andrew Ference could play there (he already did in 2004/05). Budejovice GM Petr Sailer said that Ference himself was the first one to call and said that he would like to play in Budejovice again.

Previous page news and Finns never use the second name like that (Oskar).

Lennart Petrell (Oilers) --> HIFK Helsinki

Dmitry Chesnokov ‏@dchesnokov
It appears NONE of the NHL players who signed deals in the last few days have had transfer cards issued. Story forthcoming...

Looks like Ovechkin to Dynamo Moscow after all.

Thanks! So as of right now they have zero lockout players signed with them?

I figured especially with Fedorov running the team now that they'd pick up a least a few NHLers.

They really want Ovechkin, but it looks like he's going to Dynamo. Bryzgalov may be signing with CSKA very soon.
