The Colorado Avalanche have reclaimed forward Jesse Boulerice off waivers from the Edmonton Oilers.
The New York Rangers have placed forward Patrick Rissmiller on waivers.
The Florida Panthers have placed Wade Belak on waivers.
The St. Louis Blues are desperate for some offensive help, and are rumored to be interested in acquiring Philadelphia Flyers forward Joffrey Lupul. There's also some interest in Washington Capitals forward Michael Nylander, who has been linked to the Chicago Blackhawks for some time.
Brochu's European and Asian rumor roundup:
Forward Claude Lemieux, who was trying to make a comeback to the NHL, is now rumored to be signing a contract within the next two weeks with the Worcester Sharks, the San Jose Sharks AHL affiliate. Lemieux played a few games with the China Sharks of the Asia League, but has now left the team. The China Sharks are also affiliated with San Jose. Brochu's take: If this rumor is true, than he's one step closer to his goal.
Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Prestin Ryan has left the organization and has signed with Adler Mannheim in Germany.

NHL and hockey rumors for Oct 22, 2008
TSN is reporting that the Minnesota Wild have already offered forward Marian Gaborik to another team, but the unspecified NHL executive was not interested. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune is reporting that the Montreal Canadiens and Los Angeles Kings are the frontrunners to land the Slovakian star. Brochu's take: It took the mainstream media quite some time to "officially" report this rumor. I see a Marian Hossa situation, where teams will outbid each other until someone comes up with a ridiculous offer like the Penguins did. (Incidentally, it's another high-scoring Slovakian forward that's on the market this year.) Keep checking Brochu is Hockey for the latest on Gaborik. Source

Brochu's European rumor roundup:
Minnesota Wild forward Petr Kalus has left the organization and will play in Europe. He still has two years left on his contract, and it's still possible, though unlikely, he may come back to North America. Rumor is that he will play with HC Vitkovice. Source
The Washington Capitals have re-assigned goaltender Michal Neuvirth to HC Ocelari Trinec of the Czech Extraliga. Source

Campbell, Redden, Streit, Rozsival signed
The Chicago Blackhawks have signed defenceman Brian Campbell to an 8-year, $56.8 million contract. Brochu's take: The fact that Brian Campbell will make more money than Scott Niedermayer or Chris Pronger makes me sick in the stomach.
The New York Rangers have signed defenceman Wade Redden to a six-year, $39 million contract. Brochu's take: No wonder he went to the open market. Redden did not play well enough last season to garner this type of salary. But this is the "silly" season for a reason.
The Rangers also re-signed defenseman Michal Rozsival to a four-year, $20 million contract.
The Rangers also re-signed goalie Steve Valiquette. Terms were not disclosed.
The Rangers also signed forward Patrick Rissmiller to an undisclosed deal.
The New York Islanders have signed defenceman Mark Streit to a five-year, $20.5 million contract.
The Tampa Bay Lighting have signed goaltender Olaf Kolzig to a one-year, $1.5 million contract.
The Lightning have also signed forward David Koci to a one-year, two-way deal worth $525,000 in the NHL, $100,000 in the minors.
The Philadelphia Flyers have signed forward Nate Raduns to a one-year contract and forward Glen Metropolit to a two-year deal.
The Flyers also signed defenceman Ossi Vaananen to a one-year, $1 million contract.
