Shaq to Suns
Phaneuf signs huge contract with the Flames
Overpaid (slightly) IMO, he's a bit of a defensive liability if you ask me.
Forsberg Rejects offers
I'm thinking he won't go to Vancouver, unless he really wants to buddy up with the Sedins. Vancouver isn't even in a playoff spot right now. If he really wants to win a cup, I'd say Anaheim or Ottawa are the most likely, if he wants to play with an old team, then Philly or Colorado.
Toronto Maples Leafs lost 8-0 to Florida. Toskala went 11/15 before being pulled, then Raycroft went 7/11. They are both quality goaltenders. IMO goaltending should be their strongest aspect. When Darcy Tucker is wearing an "A" you know something is wrong. Get rid of Tucker, get rid of your overpaid sh*tty defence, trade Sundin for A LOT of picks or some prospects.
"The trade that would send Shaquille O'Neal to Phoenix is all but done, pending final approval from Suns' management and the NBA, reports ESPN."

"The Calgary Flames announced Wednesday that the club has signed defenceman Dion Phaneuf to a six-year contract extension.
Sources tell TSN that the deal will average $6.5 million US a season. Phaneuf will make $7.5 million in the first year, followed by $6.5 million in year two, $7 million in the third season, $6.5 million in each of the following two years and $5.5 million in the final season."

The Foppa sweepstakes has taken a few more turns this week, as Peter Forsberg's camp has reportedly turned down a handful of NHL teams that have expressed interest in him.
The Nashville Predators are officially out of the running, as the Tennessean reported Wednesday that general manager David Poile said that Forsberg had passed on a deal with the team.
Forsberg finished the season with Nashville last year after being acquired in a trade with the Philadelphia Flyers.
The Dallas Stars are also out of the running. Co-general manager Les Jackson said Tuesday that he spoke with Forsberg's representatives Friday.
"They called back (on Saturday) and said he was going to pursue other options," Jackson told The Dallas Morning News. "I think we made a good effort, but now we move on."
Reports out of Detroit say Forsberg has also turned down the Red Wings while the San Jose Sharks, Pittsburgh Penguins and Calgary Flames have also been told that he won't be playing for their teams.
The Philadelphia Flyers and Colorado Avalanche are frontrunners for Forsberg's services, while the Anaheim Ducks, Ottawa Senators and Vancouver Canucks remain in the hunt.

As for the Sens, didn't watch the game but was hoping for a loss, even though Heatly was back in formation.
