Yashin content a with Swiss time
ZURICH-On a picture postcard ice rink, tiny figure skaters flip and twirl as they work their way through new routines to the music from Mission Impossible. Nearby, Ottawa Senators’ holdout Alexei Yashin works on his own version of the same theme. Angry Senator fans, some of whom are suing the Russian center for $27.5 million for failing to honor the final year of his contract, might take some satisfaction in knowing Yashin has been left with nothing more than a roof over his head. The people of suburban Bulach, where the 1998 Hart Trophy finalist is practising, decided their arena could do without walls, heating or seating.

Stars suffer rash of injuries, forced to call up new faces
Ken Hitchcock still believes the plan is solid. In fact, the Dallas Stars’ coach said he believes his team might actually benefit from the hardships created by an injury plagued October. But the only way to find a silver lining, Hitchcock said, is to fight through the rain. “This is hard for us right now, but we have to adjust and work through it,” Hitchcock said after five players were lost to long-term injuries. “We have to change our thinking on how we approach all this, but the general plan is still a good plan.” The Stars in the off-season were determined to battle an aging roster and infuse youthful energy into their lineup. So they opted to let go of several veterans and put in Blake Sloan, Juha Lind, Pavel Patera,…
