Will New York Rangers Brennan Othmann get a fresh start elsewhere?
Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman: New York Rangers prospect Brennan Othmann did not make the team out of camp and was sent back to the AHL. There have been talks with other teams since he was sent down. Rangers have a lot of wingers and it may be time for a fresh start.
Alex Ovechkin still doesn’t know if he wants to play next season
TSN: There may have been an idea that the Washington Capitals and Alex Ovechkin know what will happen after this season, Ovi’s final contract, according to Pierre LeBrun, but after speaking to someone within the Capitals organization, that is not the case.
NHL Rumors: Kings, and the Canucks
“They really emphasized that Ovechkin isn’t sure yet, he wants to play this season, see how his body feels, see how the team is doing, and make a decision at some point.
The Caps themselves don’t know where this is all going. If he wants to come back for another year, they will obviously sign him with open arms.
The reason there is something mysterious about all of this is that last season an email was sent from the Capitals to season ticket holders saying ‘come and enjoy Alex Ovechkinthe last season.” That email was quickly returned and there was a statement from the team saying, “that’s not the case, we don’t know.”
Will Carter Hart start in the AHL as he looks to work his way back to the NHL after December 1?
TSN: Carter Hart is on PTO with the Vegas Golden Knights and is expected to sign an NHL contract before December 1, which is the earliest he will be eligible to play, according to Chris Johnston. There are a lot of discussions going on about what his comeback will look like since he hasn’t played in almost two years.
NHL Rumors: Maple Leafs, Senators and the Devils
“But there is a high degree of confidence, as he skated in Vegas on Thursday, that he will be able to pick himself up again and will likely get a short-term contract from the Golden Knights initially. But the goal is certainly to re-establish himself as a top goaltender in the league and eventually sign a longer-term contract.”
