John Tripp und Yannick Tremblay stehen den Adlern nicht zur Verfügung

24. Juli 2006

Mit dem Stürmer John Tripp und dem Verteidiger Yannick Tremblay haben die Adler kurz vor Beginn der Vorbereitung zwei Abgänge zu beklagen.

Yannick Tremblay liegt ein Angebot des NHL-Clubs Vancouver Canucks vor. Mit dem Wunsch, diese vielleicht letzte Chance in der NHL nutzen zu wollen und seinen Vertrag in Mannheim aufzulösen, trat Yannick Tremblay an die Adler heran. Das Adler-Management entsprach nach intensiven Beratungen mit dem Trainerstab dem Wunsch des Spielers.

John Tripps Vertrag hingegen wird nicht aufgelöst, sondern nur ausgesetzt. Der Stürmer, der über einen deutschen Pass verfügt, bat wegen privater Probleme um Aussetzung seines Vertrages. Die Adler lassen den Vertrag von John Tripp nun ruhen und warten ab, wie sich die private Situation Tripps entwickelt.

DETROIT (CP) - Free agent defenceman Danny Markov has agreed to terms with the Detroit Red Wings, a source told The Canadian Press on Wednesday.

The 30-year-old spent last season with the Nashville Predators, a team as deep as any on the blue-line. He had 11 assists and a plus-9 rating in 58 games last season.

Markov will join his sixth NHL team and fifth in as many years.

In 472 NHL games with Toronto, Phoenix, Carolina, Philadelphia and the Predators, he has 25 goals and 106 assists for 131 points.

The Ottawa Senators avoided arbitration with Chris Neil on Wednesday, re-signing the gritty winger to a multi-year deal.

Financial details were not released, but the Canadian Press reported that it was a three-year, $3.3 million package.

Neil, a restricted free agent, was scheduled for an arbitration hearing later in the day.

In his fourth season with the Senators, Neil reached five career milestones and set single-season highs in goals (16), assists (17) and points (33) over 79 games. His 204 penalty minutes on the season made him the Senators' all-time leader (776) in that category.

The 27-year-old was also just one of three NHLers this season to record 15 goals or more and over 150 penalty minutes.

In 301 career games with Ottawa, Neil has recorded 40 goals, 36 assists, 76 points and 776 penalty minutes.

The Senators have one more player scheduled for an abitration hearing - forward Peter Schaefer on Friday.

The Senators also announced the signing of minor leaguer Corey Pecker to a one-year deal.
 

Bouwmeester gets two-years, $4.35 million

An arbitrator has awarded Jay Bouwmeester a two-year settlement worth $4.35 million. Bouwmeester would make $2.1 million this season and $2.25 million the following year.

Florida has two more players scheduled for arbitration, Mike Van Ryn on August 2, and Ric Jackman on August 4. The Panthers will have 48 hours after their final hearing is decided to make a decision on all the arbitration awards.

According to the Miami Herald, the Panthers were anticipating a total payout of $6.5 million for all three players this season. Getting Bouwmeester for $2.1 million is, therefore, a pretty good start for the Panthers.

The two-year deal was the maximum length allowed under arbitration rules, something else the Panthers should like.

Bouwmeester, however, is still more than doubling his salary. He made $945,630 last season.

Bouwmeester, 22, had 5 goals and 41 assists for 46 points in 82 games with the Panthers last season. He was also +1, a big number for a player with a career -43 rating in just three seasons.

He was Florida's first pick, third overall, in 2002.

> Veteran left winger Gary Roberts will return to the Panthers this season, general manager Mike Keenan and coach Jacques Martin confirmed Tuesday afternoon. - Miami Herald

Phoenix has three of the latter: David LeNeveu, Phil Sauve and Mike Morrison. None of their salaries for next season exceeds $600,000. Coyotes forward Oleg Saprykin ($1.064 million) also is expendable. - Arizona Republic

What to do with Gomez?
The proverbial rock and a hard place is where the New Jersey Devils find themselves in their situation with Scott Gomez after winning $5 million in his arbitration hearing.

According to the Star-Ledger Staff, New Jersey Devils GM Lou Lamoriello now must decide what to do with Gomez.

The three options Lamoriello has are:

1. Walk away from the decision.
2. Sign Gomez and then trade him as the Devils don't have room under the salary cap.
3. Sign Gomez and try to trade other players to fall under the cap.

"I'm sure we're going to have to make some moves," Lamoriello told the Star-Ledger. "I have no reaction to the ruling. We know what the process is. We accept the ruling and we go from here. We'll do everything we can to keep our team together."

The Devils are already over the $44 million salary cap and still need to re-sign Brian Gionta, Paul Martin and David Hale.
