John Matisz in the Toronto Sun: Veteran forward Scottie Upshall is still looking to sign with an NHL team, but isn’t that concerned just yet.
“There’s been some talks lately, more than earlier in the summer,” he continued, referring to interest from NHL teams while watching fellow BioSteel pro hockey campers smack pucks off the glass in front of his face.
Upshall has received some interest and offers from Europe and the KHL.
“The Olympics, the money that they hand out (in European leagues) … it’s hard to say no to that opportunity,” said Upshall, who captained Team Canada’s silver medal-winning 2003 world junior squad.
