The Minnesota Wild have placed forward Mark Parrish on waivers. According to the Star-Tribune, if he clears the 24-hour waivers, it is likely he will be bought out of the remaining three years of his contract and will become a free agent. Brochu's take: A more than serviceable player, Parrish ended up in Jacques Lemaire's doghouse. I'm sure someone will pick him up.
The Ottawa Senators have re-signed forward Josh Hennessy to a two-year, two-way contract.
The Pittsburgh Penguins have re-signed center Dave Gove and defenseman Danny Richmond to one-year contracts.
In an interview on AM 640 in Toronto, Carolina Hurricanes GM Jim Rutherford stated that defenseman Bret Hedican is likely to sign with a California based team. Brochu's take: The San Jose Sharks and Anaheim Ducks are pretty set on their defense, which makes the Los Angeles Kings the most likely destination. Rumors of him signing with the Kings have been strong all summer.
Brochu's European rumor roundup:
Several NHL teams have been pursuing Finnish free agent defenseman Juha Uotila, including the Phoenix Coyotes, Dallas Stars and Edmonton Oilers. Source
There are rumors that forward Marty Murray may be returning to the NHL. Murray spent last season playing for HC Lugano in Switzerland.

Ruutu on the block, Phaneuf signs?
The Chicago Daily Herald is reporting that centre Tuomo Ruutu could be attractive to many teams at the trade deadline. Ruutu could use a change of scenery and many teams would be interested in a gritty, offensive centreman. Source
There are rumors that the Calgary Flames have signed defenseman Dion Phaneuf to a 6 year, $39 million contract extension. Nothing official has been confirmed, but there is speculation that the contract contains a no trade clause that will kick in in the 5th year of the contract.
Darren Dreger of TSN is reporting on his blog that the Calgary Flames and Florida Panthers have been talking about trading Olli Jokinen, but the Panthers want Alex Tanguay and a young player or prospect.

Various sources are reporting that the Nashville Predators have signed forward Jordin Tootoo to a two year, $1.95 million contract extension. There are also rumours that J.P. Dumont has been signed to a 4 year, $16 million contract extension.
Jeff O'Neill has been practicing with the OHL Barrie Colts and could be signing with a team this year. While he didn’t say whether there were currently any NHL clubs beating a path to his door, he feels something may happen soon. “I’m just going to skate here maybe until the (Feb. 28 NHL trade) deadline, and maybe a decision will come then,” O’Neill said.
