Mursak just pulled up next door and is loading some stuff up, does this mean he is out? Or are players preparing for a quick camp because they know something we don't?

I don't know, but I heard on Twitter that Ericsson was back from Sweden aswell and practising with a couple of Red Wings.

Maybe the bargaining session went much better than expected yesterday, and Holland is requesting guys come back over to get ready...?
@GMolsonCHC Content de voir que vous avez annoncé ŕ des employés mis ŕ pied récemment qu'ils étaient de retour au travail, ŕ temps plein...
For those who don't read french, someone Tweeted that Geoff Molson, Habs owner, had recently (as soon as yesterday) hired back staff that he had recently laid-off. Baby steps...
There are several players leaving their Euro clubs already prior to a deal being done. The fact they're talking is a very good thing...just stay at it until a deal is reached.
European leagues are on a break because of the European Hockey Tournament. I think there also might be some European Trophy games during the break.
Ericsson went back to Detroit because he's only allowed to spend 183days in Sweden a year, otherwise he has to pay higher taxes. When they spend less than 183days they only pay 15% taxes instead of 57%.

Holy goatlenders! Is that the standard income tax rate, or something for higher-tier incomes or pro athletes?

Higher incomes yeah. Standard is roughly 30% assuming full-time work. The 15% rate is for athletes/artists/similar, but has to be 6 months or less of work in a calendar year.

It much more complicated than that. I would guess that would have paid at least a little less than 57% in reality. 57% is the marginal tax for the last earned krona.
It's 57% for yearly income from labour (taxable income that is, there is deductions for worktravel cost etc) over 587300 SEK (88000USD), 52% over 414000 SEK about 32% over 346700 etc downward spiral taxrate ending up in 0% for the first 18699 earn sek.
Either way, I guess he did not want to give a cent/öre more to the the sick and unemployed in Sweden than he had to.

I would, because his BMW is sweet, but we are on fairly good terms and that would piss me off if someone took pics of me and my fiancee and posted them, so no. But him and his fiancee did come watch the deer at my feeder and said he was happy to be back and he wouldnt talk about why. I thought he would play with Grand Rapids or with Saginaw since his fiancee was with the organization.

Haha, no worries man, just busting your chops a bit.
Good on you for respecting his privacy; at lot of folks seem to forget that professional athletes are people too.
