Boston Bruins has not yet traded 32-year-old forward Marco Sturm to Los Angeles Kings.
German Sturm, who will become a free agent on July 1, 2011, hasn’t played this season after undergoing reconstructive surgery on his right knee in May.
The 12-year veteran, who has agreed to waive his no-trade clause, said: “Something is cooking, so we are still up in the air. I absolutely love it here [Boston]. But I also understand the business side of it and things are not always going to go the way you want them.”
On the ice, Phil Kessel scored the shoot-out winner as Toronto rallied to beat Boston 3-2 and snap a four-game losing streak on Saturday.

Thomas Vanek scored the only shoot-out goal as Buffalo overcame Ottawa 1-0. The Sabres have won three of their last four games – including Friday’s 5-0 win over Columbus Blue Jackets – while the Senators have lost eight of 10.
Steve Sullivan and Cal O’Reilly had third-period scores as Nashville saw off Carolina 5-2 for a third win in succession for the Predators. The Hurricanes slid to a sixth loss in eight games after picking up a rare win, 2-1 over Colorado through Brandon Sutter’s overtime goal, on Friday.
Taylor Hall scored a breakaway goal just 23 seconds into overtime to give Edmonton a 2-1 victory over St. Louis. The Oilers have won four straight while the Blues have lost five in a row.

Mike Richards scored the go-ahead goal early in the third period as Philadelphia rallied to beat New Jersey 5-3. The Flyers put the brakes on a three-game slide, but the Devils have lost five in a row on the road.
Tomas Plekanec netted the winner late in the second period and Carey Price made 26 saves as Montreal edged San Jose 3-1 in other NHL scores. The Canadiens have won three of four.

The Blue Jackets have lost five in a row, including Friday’s 5-0 collapse to Buffalo.
Anze Kopitar scored the winning goal with 56 seconds left in overtime as LA Kings beat Detroit 3-2. The Kings have won two in a row, but the Red Wings, who were hoping for a season-high fifth straight win, couldn’t add to Friday’s 4-0 success over Anaheim Ducks. Jimmy Howard made 41 saves, upping his NHL players performance level, while the Ducks were losing for the seventh time in 10 outings.
Simon Gagne and Martin St. Louis registered two assists and a goal to help Tampa Bay triumph 6-5 over Colorado. The Lightning snapped a six-game losing streak to the Avalanche, who have dropped three straight following Friday’s 2-1 loss to Carolina.

Roberto Luongo was sharp between the pipes, stopping all 32 shots he faced – upping his NHL players performance points – in Vancouver’s 3-0 victory over Chicago. Henrik Sedin, Tanner Glass and Christian Ehrhoff each scored for Canucks, who have put together a four-game winning streak.
