With the NHL Draft coming up on June 27 and free agency opening on July 1, discussions between NHL general managers are heating up towards a busy off-season. Anthony Mason Jersey . Each day, TSN.ca provides the latest rumours, reports and speculation from around the NHL beat. Double Coverage New Calgary Flames GM Brad Treliving is sitting pretty comfortably heading into Fridays NHL Draft. Holding the fourth overall pick, Treliving is confident he can improve his club one way or another - be it by selecting fourth or making a bold move. Treliving told the Calgary Herald Sunday that he likes his options in both scenarios. "Well look at anything. Moving up . . . again, what does it cost you? Does it make sense? . . . Whoever shakes out at four is going to be a good player," he told the Heralds Kristen Odland. "But you also cant be fearful of making a big move because you think it may turn out wrong," he added. "If you think it makes sense, you do it. You dont do it because, What if it goes wrong? You do have to have courage to do things." Back to Backstrom Teams in need of a veteran presence in net may have something to talk about with Minnesota Wild GM Chuck Fletcher. Michael Russo of the Minneapolis Star Tribune writes that Fletcher "may be willing to retain salary and cap space to trade goalie Niklas Backstrom, who is recovering well from season-ending abdominal and hip surgeries." Along with centre Kyle Brodziak, Fletcher may be a prime candidate to make some moves leading up to, or on Draft Day itself. But Fletcher admits that its tough to get things done before hitting the draft floor. "Everyone calls everybody," Fletcher told Russo. "You dont see a whole bunch of trades the week prior to the draft. Its all about trying to figure out who your likely dance partners can be the week at the draft. Itll take a move or two to get the ball rolling, and then theres usually a domino-type effect. Were not there yet." Crow Nesting Marc Crawfords name has popped up as several teams have filled or are looking to fill coaching vacancies early in the off-season. It appears, though, that you can scratch his name off any and all candidates lists as he will be heading back to Switzerland for the 2014-15 season. Crawford is going to remain as head coach of the ZSC Lions of Swiss Elite League, the team announced via Twitter on Sunday. The Lions are the reigning Swiss title holders. Willis Reed Jersey . He reps the 4-1-6The insecurity of Canadian basketball fans is not what it once was with the home grown talent making its way to the big leagues, but it is still nice to see the local kids remembering where they come from once they make their way south. Emmanuel Mudiay Jersey . The Islanders own the fifth pick in the 2014 draft but had until June 1 to decide whether to keep it or defer to 2015.

The world champion started second on the grid but quickly lost six places after the poor getaway, eventually fighting back to third, and is now 33 points behind Nico Rosberg in the title race after his team-mates cruise to victory.Nico extends lead over Lewis Hamilton looked concerned when monitoring a damp patch by his starting position before the race but the Brit, who has previously stated that clutch problems could cost him the title, has taken responsibility for his poor getaway.I dont think the damp patch had really anything to do with it, Hamilton said. I made a mistake. Then working my way up from there was tricky, but I did the best I could.I just got some wheel-spin - Im not really sure why. Lewis Hamilton drops back to eighth after a poor start in the Japanese GP. Its not the first time Hamilton has struggled off the line in 2016. From his seven pole positions, he has only kept the lead after Turn One twice, while he has lost a total 23 places on the first lap. Taking Rosbergs first-corner Malaysia GP collision out of the equation, thats nine more than the German this season.The clutch obviously is not perfect we are giving to them, responded Mercedes boss Toto Wolff. Its difficult to handle and weve tried to optimise that.Our first assessment is it didnt function well on the clutch release, but that is obviously an over-simplification. It is a complicated mechanism to deploy and that didnt function today.

Tracy McGrady Jersey. Even winning every grand prix may not be enough and, for the first time this year, the destination of the title is out of his hands.Following his media snub on Saturday, Hamilton then cancelled his post-race press briefing to fly home with Niki Lauda and added: Im looking forward to getting home and on to the next race.Sky F1s Martin Brundle doubted whether the 31-year-old was completely focused heading into the race due to the storm that has surrounded him, with the tension set to ramp up again ahead the US Grand Prix.But Wolff, who was celebrating another constructors title following the Suzuka triumph, was confident Hamilton would recover. Nico and Lewis in 2016: A sprint to the finish Nico Rosberg Lewis Hamilton Points 313 280 Best possible finish 413 380 What they need for title 2nd, 2nd, 2nd, 3rd 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st* *four wins would still not guarantee title We had those little wobbles throughout the weekend, whether that affects him or not I dont know, Wolff told Sky Sports F1. He must know he still has every chance to win the championship, theres four races to go. He will recover. 33 points is quite a big gap if everything goes right.
