[Viktor Kozlov] brings a lot to the table," said Islanders GM Garth Snow. "He can be a centre or wing on any of our top three lines and be solid in all zones. [Radek Dvorak], who was part of the 20-man cast in the seventh game of the Stanley Cup final in Carolina in June, came to terms in St. Louis on a one-year contract for about $1 million US. That's a cut in pay from last year's $1.5 million, but, with camps opening today with medicals , the veteran needed a place to hang his gear. "The true leader in our dressing room has always been our goalie Olaf Kolzig but it's a technicality (league rules) that he can't be the captain," [Chris Clark], 30, told the Canadian Press yesterday.

It's been an exciting week," said the 18-year-old [Chet Pickard], fresh off a 3-2 loss to the Everett Silvertips. "At the start of the season I didn't think any of this would be happening to me. The ranking is exciting but there's lots of hockey to go. I guess it shows that the team is playing well and I'm getting a chance to benefit from that. "I'd be surprised if he didn't go in the first round. It depends on the needs of teams but an NHL team can draft Chet knowing they're getting a No. 1 goalie down the line, not a backup goalie," said [Al Jensen]. "I've seen him a few times this season and he's very consistent. To be short, I was impressed. I haven't seen the goalies ranked in Europe but if there's a better goalie over there, he's a very good goalie. Chet is the best of the bunch...

O'[Neal], who spent one weekend in Bedford County in late September, wouldn't talk about the failed raid Tuesday, only smiling and saying "it wasn't me," even after being told the sheriff's office confirmed the event. I have made my apologies. In return I have never received the offer of a handshake," [Marco Materazzi] said Wednesday in an interview with French radio station RTL. "Let's not forget, I'm the one who received the head-butt. In an article headlined, "The cap that killed the Cardinals?", ESPN.com's "Uni Watch" columnist Paul Lukas contends that [Kenny Rogers]' cap, not his hand, is the place to look for any possible foreign substance.

Exactly a year ago, the NHL was abuzz with the Edmonton Oilers' audacity to offer Dustin Penner, a good 'ol Manitoba kid, the outrageous sum of $4.25 million a season to lure the Stanley Cup winner out of Anaheim. As we all know, Ducks GM Brian Burke, the gruff Irishman, went ballistic and vowed that his old friend Kevin Lowe was dead to him. Not only that, but the miffed Burke complained that Penner -- a 29-goal scorer in just his first full NHL season -- wasn't worth the coin. That's the crazy part: as much as many of the mind-boggling free-agent offers may have seemed in the heat of the moment when the market officially opened Tuesday, it's beginning to feel eerily as though the likes of Olesz and [Jeff Finger] will be bargains at the manic rate NHL salaries are rising.

Is it ideal for preparation? Probably not," Ducks GM Brian Burke said of the trip overseas. "Could you do without the fatigue of coming back? Probably. But unless some teams answer that call, then we don't get to play these games. It's a chance for us to market our game internationally. To me it's a no-brainer. "This is the best team I've been on since I've been in the league," said star centre Joe Thornton. "I'm so excited. I'm 28 now and I'm ready to win and ready to do it all. I've been waiting for this day for three months now. I'm just really really excited and pumped up." "I think every team right now is sitting here anxiously awaiting training camp hoping they're a playoff team," Philadelphia Flyers GM Paul Holmgren said on a recent conference call. "I'd like to believe we can ...

I wish I was a player," said Chicago Blackhawks GM Dale Tallon. "On July 1, you always overpay. "We had to make a statement," said Tallon. "We have created a buzz here in this market -- we're starting to sell more and more tickets, more and more sponsorships. We decided that we'd try and make an impact today to continue that momentum." "Shocked," Devils president Lou Lamoriello said when asked for his take on the day. "I think that word says enough."

The Montreal Canadiens keep dropping while the Pittsburgh Penguins keep rising in our totally subjective and weekly ranking of the league's 30 clubs: * 12. Atlanta Thrashers. Somehow we don't think GM Don Waddell is done dealing. * 24. Phoenix Coyotes. [Ladislav Nagy]'s gone, who's next?

I think everybody understands we have to move forward," said [ALEX Ovechkin]. "That's why we signed good players. Some assumed that [Nylander] and Ovechkin would naturally be paired together but so far that hasn't been the case. Ovechkin has been skating with [Kozlov] and a variety of wingers while Nylander has been between [Alexander Semin] and 2006 first-round pick Nicklas Backstrom. "Kozzie has good hands and he gets me the puck all the time," said Ovechkin. "I feel good right now on our line."

I feel good," said Toskala, a man of few words. "My body feels good and mentally I think I'm ready to go, too. "He's clearly settled into a real good groove and we're seeing what he's capable of," said Leafs head coach Paul Maurice, who almost surely will call on Toskala for an 18th straight start Tuesday night against New Jersey. "It's a tough market, especially coming from out West in San Jose, not a huge hockey market," said Leafs defenceman Bryan McCabe. "It takes everyone a certain amount of time to adjust to here and he's done a great job for us."
