Stephen Whyno of the AP: Both Brian Gionta and James Wisniewski are playing for Team USA at the Olympics, and both are hoping to sign with an NHL team after.
They would need to be signed by the February 26th to be eligible for the playoffs.
“If somebody wanted me, I’m ready to go,” Wisniewski said Monday. “Hopefully I can come out here and have a great Olympics. It’s not like I’m going to be expensive. You don’t have to give up future considerations. I’ve played in the highest level for over a decade and now playing in the Olympics, so it’s not like I haven’t been playing good, competitive hockey.
