Sakic has said he\'ll be making his decision soon, as in within a couple weeks probably. I would be quite surprised if he retired.
Does anybody have anything new on the status\'s of Joe Sakic, Mats Sundin or Brendan Shanahan. I havent heard anything about these guys plans in a very long time. Well, more so the other two than Sundin anyway.
And correct me if im wrong, but isnt Selanne a UFA this off-season? Whats going on with him?

20 team h2h (multi-cat) dynasty league, 1st season
C: Getzlaf, MacKinnon, Eakin, Backlund, Schroeder, Bjugstad, Miller, Gaustad
LW: M Foligno, Wilson, Tatar, Bailey, Palat
RW: Ovechkin, Voracek, Frattin, Coyle, Clutterbuck
D: Barrie, Del Zotto, Brodin, Vatanen, Gudas, Donovan, Murphy, Hamonic, Grossmann, Michalek
G: Pavelec, Schneider, Enroth
Nothing firm on any of them... but here\'s my speculation, because the Toronto Media doesn\'t do enough on their own.
Sundin - Vancouver 1 year
Sakic - returns to COL
Selanne - waiting for Burke to trade Schneider and free up enough cap space to sign, but will play (I hope based on the fact I have him on my team!)
Shanny - if he does play it`ll be somewhere like Nash or Minn who need scoring depth. He\'s the most likely to retire in my mind.

I hope this isn\'t an annual thing. Why can\'t they just make up their minds. Like Stevie Y said, if there is doubt, play on.
I\'d also include Radulov as he fits into your title, players in limbo. It is possible that he will come back to the NHL.

I read somewhere that Sakic said he only wants to return if he feels he has the ability to be the no. 1 center again on the team. He won\'t play any lesser role...
