Jeff Deslauriers G - EDM:
Oilers re-up Delauriers
Aug 1, 1:08AM
The Edmonton Oilers have re-signed goalie Jeff Deslauriers. After Nikolai Khabibulin's status was determined questionable because of a DUI, Deslauriers needed to be locked up. The Oilers did just that, signing him to a one-year contract. He has avoided arbitration because of the signing. Last season he had a 16-28-4 record with a 3.34 goals-against average and a .901 save percentage. The move means the Oilers will not bring Devan Dubnyk back next season.

Jul 31, 5:32PM
Washington GM George McPhee had some harsh words for Stefan Della-Rovere. McPhee said he acquired winger D.J. King because he did not have use for Della-Rovere. "We have no use for tough players who can't play or hurt you defensively.what we see in this player is someone who brings grit but looks like he could be a reliable player. If we could add a player to the club who is gritty and can play, that makes us a better team. We think if we get working with this player, he can become a reliable player who can play a little bit more." McPhee clearly saw no use for an antagonizer like Della-Rovere on his squad.
