Sv: Rykteshärvan
Danne_l: Lite nyheter om Datsyuk och Zäta.

"Holland said Monday the Wings have offered Datsyuk contracts of varying lengths from 1-5 years, though the team would prefer not to sign him to a two-year deal.
Asked if the sides were still far apart on money in negotiations, Holland replied, "Well, we're certainly not close."


Q:
And Zetterberg?


A: Closer, perhaps, and that probably has something to do with Zetterberg's not having the kind of leverage Datsyuk does. The Russian league offers salaries that are more comparable to the NHL money -- even better, in some instances -- than Zetterberg would make if he were to choose to stay in Sweden.


Holland spoke with Zetterberg's agent, Marc Levine, again Monday and expects to hear back from Levine today or Wednesday.

For Zetterberg, 24, it might be less about term and more about money. He made $675,000 last season and is believed to be asking for $2 million-plus annually on a long-term deal."
