Rumor Central

ANA- Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail reports that Ducks' GM Brian Burke has received many offers for goalie Ilya Bryzgalov, but none of them seemed to have "knocked his socks off", or even convinced him to trade the Russian netminder.

BUF- Tim Graham of the Buffalo News suggests that neither Chris Drury or Daniel Briere are interested in re-signing with the Sabres until after they have "offered" their services to the other 29 clubs of the NHL.

PIT- According to the Pittsburgh Post Gazette and Dave Molinary, Penguins GM Ray Shero will not offer contracts to forwards Nils Ekman and Ronald Petrovicky and defensemen Eric Cairns and Joel Kwiatkowski, all of whom are UFAs and set to go on the market July 1st. Shero will not retain the following players because of the re-signing of veterans Gary Roberts and Mark Recchi to one-year contracts, which has limited the Penguins' budget this offseason. The Penguins are also negotiating with defenseman Ryan Whitney, a RFA, on a long-term contract.

SJ- Many sources indicate that with the riddance of Vesa Toskala and Mark Bell, the San Jose Sharks will try agressively to sign veteran center Chris Drury. They also say that if they deem necessary to those negotations to deal captain Patrick Marleau, they will do it without a flinch.
