The Phoenix Coyotes have signed forward Taylor Pyatt to a one-year deal.
The Nashville Predators have re-signed forward Cal O'Reilly to a two-year contract.

Ducks/Canucks trade, Jokinen waived
I will be blogging shortly after TSN's Countdown to TradeCentre NHL trade deadline special with any rumors that haven't been reported lately.
The Vancouver Canucks have traded forward Mike Brown to the Anaheim Ducks for defenseman Nathan McIver. McIver had cleared waiver earlier Thursday.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have placed forward Jussi Jokinen on waivers.
According to Pierre McGuire on the Team 1040 radio in Vancouver, several NHL teams have been inquiring about Canucks defenseman Shane O'Brien. McGuire reported that it's well known that GM Mike Gillis is shopping O'Brien around the league. Brochu's take: Rumors are that the Toronto Maple Leafs are very interested in him.
Pierre LeBrun is reporting that the Atlanta Thrashers are shopping forward Erik Christensen, and some teams are interested. Brochu's take: LeBrun also has a list of the latest rumors, but nothing new other than Christensen. He could be had for a mid-round pick. Source
Adrian Dater on the Denver Post is reporting reports scouts from the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Rangers were at the Colorado Avalanche-Calgary Flames game. Source

NHL and Hockey Rumors for Feb 2, 2009
According to the National Post, Toronto Maple Leafs GM Brian Burke is not looking to deal Tomas Kaberle, but would be willing to consider a "home-run" deal for him. Burke has not asked Kaberle to waive his no-movement clause, but a source close to the player's agent said the Leafs would soon be given a list of teams he would agree to play for. The Post also reports that an NHL team has offered a top-5 pick for defenseman Luke Schenn, but Burke isn't biting. Brochu's take: Burke's got a point about Kaberle, who's contract is actually fair in today's market. Schenn is pretty much an untouchable at this point. Source
Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun reports that "there's talk [Florida]Panthers GM Jacques Martin has had talks with [Pittsburgh]Penguins GM (and old friend from their Senators days) Ray Shero about a Jay Bouwmeester for Ryan Whitney and draft picks deal." Brochu's take: Why would Shero do that for a impending UFA? Source
The Ottawa Senators have fired head coach Craig Hartsburg, only 48 games into his first season behind the team's bench. Binghamton Senators head coach Cory Clouston will replace him for the rest of the season. GM Bryan Murray has also said there will be "judgements" made on players before the trade deadline. Brochu's take: They fired the wrong guy. Murray has just been re-arranging the deck chairs on the Titantic, and sooner or later owner Eugene Melnyk will fire him as well.
The Columbus Blue Jackets have placed forward Alexandre Picard on waivers.
The Anaheim Ducks have placed defenseman Nathan McIver on waivers.
