Darren Dreger‏Verified account @DarrenDreger
Multiple NHL offers on Czech dman Jan Rutta. Edmonton is among the CDN teams with interest, but i don't believe they've tabled offer yet.

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Flames are tight lipped, but I'm hearing Calgary is also in on offensive dman Jan Rutta.

Darren Dreger Retweeted Darren Dreger
I haven't heard from Ottawa, but Vancouver, Winnipeg, Toronto and Montreal not in the mix.

Stupid McDavid really tilted things to the Oilers advantage. C'mon Rutta, just look at the past decade of failure, you don't want to go there...

There is an article in flames nation stating that he would be a great fit for the flames. Not sure if we will get him now as Tre likes to fly under the radar

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Ottawa isn't in the mix. Battle of Alberta for Rutta.

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Doesn't mean he will choose either...just identifying the Canadian teams in the mix.

Seems like the Oilers would likely stick with Russell if they miss out here, so it would be a double win.

Not holding my breath though.

A defensman that wears #90? Sounds like Oilers material to me.

Oh good, another Czech dman we can be optimistic about who ends up buried in the A and moves to another team in a year.

Don't forget the part where he actually plays admirably and beneficially to the NHL team when given an opportunity, but then they decide that opportunity doesn't count because it came at a somehow less important section of the season.

Shoots right, that's good, someone to compete with Rasmus Andersson for the second or third pairing perhaps?

I look forward to the Treliving presser where he reminds us all that this player is not going to be a savior.
