Devils' Markstrom Shop Talk, Nurse-To-Pittsburgh Buzz Grows

The goalie market is getting noisy, and New Jersey’s name keeps surfacing for all the wrong reasons if you’re attached to stability. There is also fresh chatter around Nurse and a possible fit in Pittsburgh, which is exactly the kind of rumor that starts muttering in June and somehow turns serious by July. Add in the Bourque offer-sheet talk, and this is the sort of offseason stack-up that has GMs pretending they are not picking up the phone.
