Hossa is going for arbitration. It will be interesting to see what he receives in the new NHL enviroment. You can bet it will be a couple million less than what he would have before.

Anyone else catch the talk on the people going to arbitration. Seemed like all the players had career highs in points going in to the arbitration process. That is one reason why I like that the owners can take the players to arbitration for non-performance. They always seem to play well when a new contract is on the line, then disappear, and then resurface when it is time to re-negotiate.
