One player cannot carry a team, besides maybe a goaltender like Luongo when hes on top of his game. Even Lidstrom or Gretzky can't do it by themselves.

there's no doubt that he's a good player and you don't need rings to prove it.
he's going to make an impact on the scoresheet, hopefully in the room and definitely on the win/loss column if he signs here, and if that's worth 10M to the organization, what the fucker ever... at first i couldn't believe that gillis had offered him that much cake, but now i'm just waiting for the bullshit to be over and for him to sign. at this point, i'd be more suprised if he signed in toronto, but only because i've already accepted the fact that could be/probably will be/is a canuck

Current rumor out of Ottawa (in the Ottawa Sun) is Vermette for either Bieska or Sami Salo. I really, really hope it's Salo if that's the case.

salo has a no trade clause, so it's really up to him.
and the vermette thing is supposedly riding on sundin's decision.

pretty much gauranteed that we're going to be ditching a big salary on the d line now (for little to nothing in return)... if we're still gunning for sundin, that is.
