Whats Going On With Joe Sakic??

Question

k i know how everyone is talking about Mats Sundin....but i don't care about him. whats going on with Joe Sakic and is he going to resign with the avs or go somewhere else? and if so whos intreseted.

Answer 1

Joe has already said he will make his decision before training camp.  I'm pretty sure he won't sign with any team besides the Avs.

Answer 2

I haven't cared for Sundin since the Leafs stole him off the Nordiques (nothing against Wendel Clark, but Todd Warriner was worth barely more than a puck bag)

But even as a die-hard Canadiens fan, I have the utmost respect for Sakic and what he's done for the Nordiques / Avalanche / Team Canada over the years. His jersey is one of the few I had custom made in fact.

Answer 3

Yeah, nobody's reported on Sakic for a while. He still isn't sure what he's gonna do, but trust me, if he doesn't re-sign, he'll retire. He's not gonna go anywhere else.

Answer 4

sackic is my favorite player of all time, sundin sucks, big and slow, sackic better re sign with the av's because they just got all there old players bac (execpt tanguay) so they should play a couple of seasons with the old players + the new kids, i think they'll be a great team! he mite retire soon to so he better finish with the av's were he belongs

Answer 5

Pretty similar spot for them both.  And they are playing their hands the same too.  The longer it takes for them to announce the more likely it is they will return to their old clubs.  By waiting to sign they may give their respective GMs a little more time and flexibility to tweak the rosters.

I would not be in the least suprised to see both sign really late with their old clubs.

Answer 6

I totally agree with you on Sundin, either c**p or get off the pot. As for Joe, I think he's going to retire. Or he might pull a Favre and retire, come back, and decide he wants to play for another team. Or he may pull a Niedermeyer/Selanne and leave for half the season and come back on a reduced salary to help the Avs get around the cap. But who knows. So long as Sundin is hogging the offseason spotlight, Sakic is going to be hidden from the prying eyes of the hockey fanbase

Answer 7

dude who knows it's gonna end soon i know that for a fact
