Welcome to today's news and rumors rundown. We start in Edmonton where there's talk about Leon
0:06
Drysaddle wanting an extension similar to what Matthews got instead of the full eight years
0:10
Ultimately Drysaddle is the only one who knows what he wants, but it's intriguing development
0:14
considering it's been reported in the past that he wanted the full eight years. Next we move to
0:18
Columbus and their ongoing search for a new head coach. Aaron Port's line at The Athletic reports
0:22
that GM Don Riddell has confirmed that the two final candidates are coming in this week for
0:26
in-person interviews. They are believed to be Dean Evason and Jay Woodcroft. Now on to Washington
0:32
where Sammy Silber of the Hockey News is reporting that the Capitals will evaluate how Andrew
0:36
Magiaponte fits into their lineup before deciding on his future. He's declined since his 35-goal
0:41
season two years ago and they don't want to commit long-term too soon. And we end in Calgary where
0:46
it's reported that Shillington likely won't return to the Flames this season. Eric Francis
0:50
says that he wants to be paid like a top four. Offense to me, yet they are not prepared to offer
0:53
that kind of money. That's it for this edition of the News and Rumors Rundown. Stay tuned for more tomorrow
