Player Notes
June 24, 2008
Joe Sakic won't make a decision regarding his playing status before July 1, according to the Denver Post.

Our View:Sakic made $6.75 million in 2007-08 and likely would continue to make something in that range in a new deal. If Sakic decided to retire before July 1, Colorado GM Francois Giguere would have that much more money freed up under the salary cap. If Sakic retired well after July 1, the top NHL free agents could be gone. While he could compromise the team's free agency spending plans, VP Jean Martineau stated that Sakic has earned the right to take his time with his decision.

Joe Sakic has told GM Francois Giguere that he still isn’t ready to make a decision regarding his playing future, according to the Rocky Mountain News. Team VP Jean Martineau stated, "Francois told him to take the time that he needs to take. Don’t expect a decision soon or in the coming days. We told him that we would wait for when he would be ready to let us know."

Our View:Sakic, who turns 39 in July, is eligible to become an unrestricted free agent on July 1, but will either re-sign with Colorado or retire. He can still get the job done, as he scored 40 points over 44 games in 2007-08.

Joe Sakic still hasn't decided if he will return for a 20th NHL season, according to the Denver Post. "Joe has not told me of any decision yet, and I assume that means he hasn't told the team anything yet," Don Baizley, his agent, said.

Our View:Sakic is coming off a rough season abbreviated by injury, but he was his normal high scoring self when on the ice with 40 points in 44 games. Sakic can still play, so it would be a shame to see him end his HOF career when he still has gas left in the tank.
