Sources in Pittsburgh, and TSN's Bob McKenzie, are saying Matt Murray's injury from last night are NOT that serious and the goalie will miss one to four weeks with a "lower body injury."
Also, the Rumor Chart is just about ready to launch, so I have been spending large amounts of time on the phone...
Today's name: Erik Gudbranson.
Though without a point through the first 21 games of the season, Gudbranson has tallied 43 hits and 28 blocked shots for the Canucks, and has averaged 17:42 per contest. He's also in the last year of his current contract, which comes with a $3.5 million cap hit, and could be a decent fit for a contending club looking to shore up their defense.
Gudbranson has received a ton of interest from Montreal, Toronto, NJ, and Buffalo. I have even heard Washington with interest.
More to come.
