what this means is the Leafs are planning on not buying him out at all, sense he doesnt have a contract....Nolan will file a grievance with the players association, and the leafs have filed paperwork to buy out Nolan if they lose the grievance....

Either way, nolans 5+ mil salary will not count against the cap, and Toronto has 19 million buck to play with right now

Foote for 3
O'neal for 1
Allison for 1
Roberts for 1.5
Niewy for 1.5
Domi for .75

All probable in my opinion.....and hopefully, that Forsberg rumour is true.....

O'Neal? As in Jeff O'Neill? You think he'll sign for 1 and Gary Roberts and Niewy will sign for 1.5? That seems a bit backwards to me. I know O'Neill struggled last time out (trust me, I had him on my fantasy the useless piece of...), but he's got to command more than those two old timers.
