Agent Says Turco Will Be A Starting Goalie

from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, Kurt Overhardt chuckled when I asked if he is worried that Marty Turco might not end up with a place to sit in this free agent game of musical chairs. ?You?re the second guy to ask me that exact same question in that exact same manner,? said the agent for Turco. ?The answer is no.? Overhardt is confident that something will get done in the 7-10 days and that Turco, the all-time Stars win leader who was not offered a contract extension, will be on a contending team. ?He will be on a contender, he will be the starter and he will get a chance to show everbody the kind of goalie he has been throughout his career and will continue to be,? Overhardt said. more

  • Goalies Who May Be On The Dallas Radar
  • from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, Now, as for the logic of reports that Turco won?t be re-signed, I think we all can speculate that those could very well come true. Turco can become an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season, and the Stars decided that they would use this season to help determine whether they wanted to re-sign him. So far, with Turco posting a 14-13-8 record with a 2.84 GAA and a .905 save percentage, the odds are he will not be given an offer. After

  • The Year Of The UFA Goalie
  • from Pierre LeBrun of ESPN, Yes, this year?s free-agent crop lacks in overall depth. But if there?s one position that bucks the trend, it?s in goal, where there?s a multitude of unrestricted free agents looking for jobs. ?It?s the year of the goalie, it seems,? netminder Marty Turco told ESPN.com on Wednesday. Turco is among the bigger netminder names headed for unrestricted free agency; the Dallas Stars ended his reign in the Lone Star State after replacing Turco with Kari Lehtone

  • Keep Or Trade Turco
  • from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, Who knows what?s going to happen in the next month or so? Maybe Alex Auld will take over, and the Stars will look to trade Turco. Maybe they will be right on the edge of the playoff race and will feel they have to keep both goalies. Maybe Turco will lead them to the Stanley Cup and re-sign a long-term deal. (Well, maybe not...) But the plan, it appears, is to find another goalie. Turco has been shaky for the past couple of years, and ther

  • The Goalie Shuffle Has Started
  • from Craig Custance of The Gringer at The Sporting News, The trade starts the goalie shuffle, with Carey Price looking like he?s now the uncontested started in Montreal. Price is also a restricted free agent, and his agent Ritch Winter declined to comment on negotiations with the Canadiens. It also means that potential unrestricted free agent goalie Chris Mason will likely hit the market. Mason won 30 games last year with the Blues and over the past two seasons has averaged a .915 sav

  • Turco Wants To Be On A Winning Team
  • from Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News, He declined interview requests for a couple of days after Stars GM Joe Nieuwendyk announced Tuesday that the veteran goalie would not return to the team next season. However, as he lined up realtors Friday to sell his house, Turco said he was ready to turn the page. ?It was hard and it is hard, but they are moving on and I have to move on,? Turco said. ?I haven?t been happy for a little while, and I believe I?m a pretty happy person, so it?s t
