Player Notes
July 14, 2008
Patrick Thoresen has inked a deal to play for Lugano of the Swiss League, according to TSN. The contract is for one year, but financial details were not disclosed. He said, "I want to return to the NHL, I'm not denying that. That is where I want to play."

Our View:Thoresen rejected a final contract offer from the Flyers last week because he had wanted a fixed salary regardless of whether he plays in the NHL or a farm team. According to NHL rules, he cannot join another NHL team this season.

Patrick Thoresen has opted to reject a final contract offer from the Flyers and temporarily return to European hockey, according to Slam Sports. He said, "I wanted a so-called one-way contract, which is to say the same salary regardless of whether I played in the NHL or a farm team. That makes things more predictable for me and my family."

Our View:He had offers from a variety of European clubs, and would likely either play in Switzerland or Sweden. He noted that he would like to return to the NHL.

Patrick Thoresen was released from the hospital on Saturday after tests showed that no serious damage was caused by the shot he took to the groin on Friday night, this according to Sports Illustrated.

Our View:There were initial concerns that he might have to have one of his testicles amputated, but those fears have passed. He might even play Sunday in Game 2, after all, he is a hockey player.
