(Getty Images)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong class=\"size-full wp-image-35613\"&gt;By Allan Muir&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;An annotated guide to this morning's must-read hockey stories:&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Ryan Miller comes into this season knowing he has plenty to prove, both to the Sabres and to Team USA's management. But as one of the oldest players at camp this week, his time may have already passed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Ilya Kovalchuk says he didn't return to Russia to kill time before the Olympics, and he expects to test the limits of his abilities in the KHL.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Steve Conroy breaks down Peter Chiarelli's history as the Bruins GM, and says that signing him to an extension was a no-brainer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 With repairs on schedule, it looks as though Calgary's flood-damaged Saddledome will be ready for the start of the season. Amazing. I need to get those guys to take a look at my roof.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Lightning center Valtteri Filppula put on the old gear for one last skate with some of his former teammates in Detroit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 The Capitals are running out of time, and cap space, to get RFA forward Marcus Johansson signed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Here's the Blackhawks' Patrick Kane wearing a Washington Nationals hockey jersey. What the what?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Just how much fan mail does Ducks winger Teemu Selanne get? Enough that it cost his son a chance to attend a WHL camp last season.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Calder Trophy finalist (and Canadiens winger) Brendan Gallagher is working hard to show people that last season wasn't a fluke.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 After weeks of speaking bluntly about his contract situation, Maple Leafs center Nazem Kadri hit the mute button at a skate on Thursday. Does that mean a deal is close . . . or that a holdout is inevitable?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Minor-league vet Mike Kostka thought he had shown himself to be a useful addition to Toronto's back end, but the team cut him loose after the season. Now he has to prove himself all over again, this time with the defending Stanley Cup champs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 There are several spots to be won on the Oilers' roster this season, but this defenseman is the only rookie with a real shot to grab one of them.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Tony Gallagher writes that, contrary to widely held opinion, the first three months of the season will probably be meaningless when Team Canada makes its final selections for Sochi -- at least, they should be meaningless if management hopes to build the right kind of team.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 The numbers suggest that snubbing Edmonton winger Taylor Hall for Sochi would be a bigger mistake for Team Canada than when it left Tampa Bay sniper Steven Stamkos off the 2010 roster.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Team USA's centers look like a bunch of frat party types compared to Canada's Hall of Fame-caliber crew, but Kevin Allen says that match-ups won't be a problem for the Americans.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 At least one group of Olympic hopefuls  hit the ice for training this week.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Jeremy Rutherford writes that Max Lapierre will be the ultimate \"we love him now that he's in our sweater\" guy in St. Louis.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 Beat writer Mike Russo answers all of your pressing questions about the Wild while sweating it out at the Minnesota State Fair. Thanks for your courage, Mike!&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;\u2022 The Yahoo fantasy guys have released their top-100 hockey pool picks for the 2013-14 season. You can only hope the other guys in your league use it as their bible.\n\u2022 The Coyotes' Mikkel Boedker and Anaheim's Jakob Silfverberg top nhl.com's list of fantasy hockey sleepers.&lt;/p&gt;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
