08:24 AM ET 10.04 | Patrice Bergeron, David Krejci, Zdeno Chara, Gabriel Landeskog and Matt Duchene are but the most recent to find work overseas. Octagon Hockey's Allan Walsh, who represents the likes of Winnipeg's Ondrej Pavelec, Ottawa's Milan Michalek, San Jose's Martin Havlat and Pittsburgh's Marc-Andre Fleury, said in an e-mail the phone activity has picked up. "I believe the most recent count is approximately 100 NHL players signed and playing in Europe during the owners lockout," Walsh said. "Day by day, we are receiving more urgent inquiries from European clubs for locked out players. As the owners lockout drags on, I expect many more players will be looking to Europe to maintain their skills and conditioning."
