The San Jose Sharks remain interested in Ottawa Senators forward Dany Heatley. Ken Warren of the Canwest News Service speculates that GM Doug Wilson is still looking to make changes, and the acquistion of Heatley would definitely bring some of that change. Warren suggests that it's possible to trade forwards Patrick Marleau and Jonathon Cheechoo in exchange for the disgruntled forward. Brochu's take: Marleau still has a no trade clause. Value-wise, it's not a bad trade, but Cheechoo is a shadow of his 56-goal season. Marleau's play has improved under coach Richards, but who knows what he will be under coach Clouston. Source
The Phoenix Coyotes have re-signed forwards David Spina and Jeff Hoggan, and defenseman Sean Sullivan to contracts. Terms were not disclosed.
The Carolina Hurricanes have re-signed defensemen Brett Carson and Bryan Rodney to one-year, two-way contracts.
Brochu's European rumor roundup:
The Los Angeles Kings have signed Slovakian forward Juraj Mikus to a contract. Brochu's take: Mikus could impress. He was once amongst the top scorers in the Slovakian league. Source
The Nashville Predators have signed forward Ben Eaves to a contract. Eaves spent last season with Blues of the Finnish league.

NHL and Hockey Rumors for June 3, 2009
The Boston Bruins have re-signed impending restricted free agent forward David Krejci to a three-year, $11.25 million contract. The contract is worth $3.5, $3.75 and $4 million per year, respectively. Brochu's take: Great signing by GM Peter Chiarelli. Krejci is capable of scoring at a point-a-game pace and has great playmaking skills.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed forward Mikhail Stefanovich, defenseman Carl Gunnarsson and defenseman Juraj Mikus to entry-level contracts. Stefanovich, 19, was the Leafs’ 3rd round choice, selected 98th overall in the 2008 NHL Entry Draft. Gunnarsson was the 6th round choice in the 2007 Draft, and Mikus was the Leafs' 5th round pick in 2007. Brochu's take: Burkie continues to add depth to the organization, and expect him to be a big player at the Draft and free agency.
The Dallas Stars have signed goalies Matt Climie and Brent Krahn to one-year, two-way contracts for the 2009-2010 NHL season.
