Here's the long overdue version of Brochu's European rumor roundup: (with a focus on players coming in/out of Sweden to NHL teams.
The Philadelphia Flyers have signed forward Mika Pyorala to a 1-year, $500,000. Brochu's take: Pyorala is one of those European free agents to keep an eye on.
The Montreal Canadiens have signed forward Andreas Engqvist to a three-year deal.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed forward Rickard Wallin to a one-year contract and goalie Jonas Gustavsson to a 1-year, $900,000. Brochu's take: Gustavsson was the most talked about European free agent this summer, and will be given a chance to back up Toskala in T.O.
Montreal Canadiens forward Yanick Lehoux has left the organization and signed with Swedish club Sodertalje.
Anaheim Ducks forward Josh Green and Minnesota Wild defenseman Tomas Mojzis have both signed deals with Modo.

Thanks to everyone who voted in the polls! And in this case, the Jeff Finger deal won, but really there are only losers in this poll. ;-)

Torres traded for Brule, other signings
Brochu is Hockey will be live blogging every signing and trade for the next few hours, so keep refreshing!
The Edmonton Oilers have traded Raffi Torres to the Columbus Blue Jackets for Gilbert Brule. Brochu's take: GM Kevin Lowe has once again shown how savvy he can be. Brule is a cheaper, younger version of Torres with more upside. Source
According to TSN, the Washington Capitals have re-signed restricted free agent defenseman Mike Green to a four-year, $21 million contract extension.
The New Jersey Devils and defenceman Bryce Salvador have agreed to terms on a four-year deal worth an average of $2.9 million per season. The Devils have also re-signed forward Jay Pandolfo and declined an option on forward Sergei Brylin, according to the Bergen Record. The team also re-signed David Clarkson and Barry Tallackson, plus recent draftees Matt Halischuk and Vladimir Zharkov.
TSN is reporting that the Pittsburgh Penguins are close to a 5 year contract extension with Evgeni Malkin worth around $8.7 million a year.
The Detroit Red Wings have re-signed defenseman Brad Stuart to a four-year, $15 million contract extension.
The Pittsburgh Penguins have re-signed forward Pascal Dupuis to a three-year, $4.2 million contract extension.

Lightning shopping for goaltending help
Bob McKenzie of TSN is reporting that the Tampa Bay Lightning are looking for goaltending help. Both Johan Holmqvist and Marc Denis' play has been suspect, and GM Jay Feaster is working the phones to see if he can get a goalie to help his team. Source
Peter Forsberg has had a setback on his return to NHL hockey. Forsberg left the Swedish national team's practice after an hour, saying his ankle didn't feel right. "I'm not going to retire today, I'm going to check with the doctors to see one more time what can be done. They should be able to fix it. I don't want it to be any major procedures, if it's a small thing they can fix, I'll be okay, if not I think I'll let it be. It's looking pretty dark." Source
Brochu's European round-up:
Milan Bartovic has left the Atlanta Thrashers AHL affiliate in Chicago and signed a deal with HC Bílí Tygři Liberec of the Czech Extraliga. His contract had a clause where he could return to Europe if he did not make the NHL roster. Source
Travis Green has signed a one-year deal with EV Zug of the Swiss Nationalliga A. Green split last year with the Anaheim Ducks and Toronto Maple Leafs.
