Free agent Mark Fayne, talking to other clubs, increasingly unlikely to return to Devils
Quote:
Defenseman Mark Fayne, an unrestricted free agent, has drawn interest from other NHL teams and it now appears unlikely that he will return to the Devils.
The Edmonton Oilers are among the teams Fayne’s agent, Peter Fish has spoken to and there is considerable interest in the 27-year-old blue liner.
“All I’ll say is it’s still open. Obviously other teams have inquired about Mark,” Fish told The Star-Ledger Friday. “His preference is to come back to New Jersey, but we’re getting closer to the (July 1 free agency) deadline.
“You never say never and it’s obviously up to Mark. But at this point we haven’t heard from Lou (Lamoriello) and we’re getting closer. Then it would take on a life of its own. Mark is hopeful that he could remain in New Jersey, but it looks less likely.”
