Penguins recall blueliner Dylan Reese

Dylan Reese has been recalled from the minors.

The Penguins traded defenseman Ben Lovejoy to Anaheim on Wednesday night, so Reese will join the team as a depth player. He played in 28 games for the New York Islanders last season and will no doubt be eagerly waiting to make his debut for his hometown team in Pittsburgh.

Marian Hossa has UBI, questionable for Game 4

Marian Hossa was scratched due to an upper-body injury and was considered a game-time decision entering warmups Monday night.

Hossa was a last-minute scratch after going through warmups and there had been some thought he was injured during the pregame skate. However, Jonathan Toews said the Hawks were prepared all day for Hossa to possibly sit, so it's obviously something that was lingering from at least Game 2. Coach Joel Quenneville said Hossa is officially day-to-day and is hopeful the veteran winger will be able to suit up for Wednesday's Game 4. We'd like to say we'll know more after Tuesday's morning skate, but chances are Hossa will be a game-time call again Wednesday night.

Jonathan Toews scoreless despite five shots

Jonathan Toews was held scoreless again despite putting five shots on goal.

Toews has had a nightmare of a time playing against Boston's top defensive pairing of Zdeno Chara and Dennis Seidenberg. When Toews does get past those two, he's been stopped at every turn by Tuukka Rask. It's been the same story for Toews for much of this postseason and the Chicago captain has just one goal in 20 postseason contests. If the Blackhawks plan to win this series, they'll need to find a way to get their top players going.

Rask shuts out Hawks as Bruins take 2-1 lead

Tuukka Rask stopped all 27 shots in a shutout of the Chicago Blackhawks to help the Boston Bruins take a 2-1 series lead in the Stanley Cup final.

The Blackhawks didn't test him much and the Bruins defensemen kept Chicago's forwards to the outside much of the time, but Rask was clearly locked in from the drop of the puck. Rask also did a very good job of controlling rebounds and got a little help from the post on a Bryan Bickell shot in the final minutes of the third period. It was another strong performance to add to Rask's potential Conn Smythe resume.

Chara needed stitches after pregame collision

Zdeno Chara needed stitches after colliding with teammate Milan Lucic in pregame warmups, according to multiple media outlets.

Chara ended up hitting the ice after losing his edge. The hulking defenseman slid into the back of Lucic's legs and it appeared Lucic's skate may have made contact with Chara's head. It didn't bother him enough to keep him off the ice. Chara picked up an assist and while playing a team-high 25:47 and again teamed with Dennis Seidenberg to shut down Jonathan Toews. The Bruins now lead the series 2-1.

Report: Streit signs 4-year deal with Flyers

Mark Streit has reportedly signed a four-year deal with the Philadelphia Flyers.

Streit was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Philadelphia acquired the rights to Streit from the New York Islanders in exchange for Shane Harper and a fourth-round draft pick in 2014. He'll turn 36 in December, but he's still a great offensive defenseman and particularly effective with the man advantage. The financial terms of the deal aren't known yet, but he was reportedly seeking something north of $5 million annually. The Flyers' cap situation was bad to begin with and it's likely they'll fix that by using their compliance buyouts on Daniel Briere and Ilya Bryzgalov.

Rangers yet to confirm A.Vigneault is coach

The New York Rangers have yet to formally announce the hiring of Alain Vigneault as their next head coach.

There have been numerous reports confirming Vigneault has been hired by Glen Sather to replace the departed John Tortorella, however none of these have come from the Rangers organization. We still expect the former Canucks bench boss to take over in Manhattan, but an official team release would be nice.

Bettman has contacted Seattle Mayor McGinn

NHL commissioner Gary Bettman has been in contact with Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn.

McGinn believes that Seattle can support an NHL team in KeyArena, which is the former home of the WHL Seattle Thunderbirds and NBA Seattle SuperSonics. Seattle might become the home of the Phoenix Coyotes if the NHL doesn't see significant movement towards the ownership saga being resolved in the coming weeks. Moving the team to Seattle would allow for the team to stay in the same post-realignment division and it would create a natural rivalry with the Vancouver Canucks.

Report: Slava Voynov close to inking w/ Kings

R-Sport.ru is reporting that Slava Voynov is close to re-signing with the Los Angeles Kings.

Voynov is slated to become a restricted free agent on July 5 and he reportedly has an offer on the table from Trakor Chelyabinsk of the KHL, his hometown team, but wants to re-sign with the Kings. "Slava is in contract talks with Los Angeles and we should come to an agreement in the very near future," his agent Alexander Tyzhnykh said. The 23-year-old defenseman had six goals and 25 points in 48 regular season games but his offensive game really took off in the playoffs with six goals, including four game winners, and 13 points in 18 games. Grab him as a top-20 defenseman in pools next season.

Daniel Paille snipes OT game-winner vs. Hawks

Daniel Paille sniped the game-winning goal in overtime for the Bruins in their 2-1 victory over the Blackhawks on Saturday night.

And with that, the Stanley Cup Final is even at one game apiece. The Blackhawks owned the first period, but managed only one goal and Boston was able to find its stride as the game went along. Coach Claude Julien formed a Paille-Chris Kelly-Tyler Seguin line after the first period and it proved to be a big adjustment, as Kelly also potted the team's first goal of the game in the second period. In addition to his second game-winner of the playoffs, Paille also had an assist on that goal. Adam McQuaid and Tyler Seguin picked up the assists on Paille's goal. Milan Lucic had 10 hits and Dennis Seidenberg had five blocked shots. This has the makings of a series that will easily go to seven games.

Report: Flames offer 3 firsts to Avs for No.1

The Flames offered all three of their first-round picks to the Avalanche but were rebuffed, according to HNIC's Elliotte Friedman on "Hot Stove."

Wow. The Flames hold the sixth, 22nd and 28th picks in the first round and that seems like a very steep price to pay for the first-overall pick, so they might've been done a favor here. WHL defenseman Seth Jones is expected to go to the Avs at No. 1.
