I've spoke about this possibility. If the team wanted to, and Redden was willing to leave some significant money on the table, they could keep him around. I think Ottawa would rather have Redden at $4.5m to $5.0m a year than Corvo at half that, for example. The key is moving Corvo, as well as a goalie (and then replace the goalie with a fairly inexpensive one).
Melnyk calls it a "Stanley Cup" discount.
It'd be in Redden's best interest to wait until June before signing, though, when the new cap figures are all but confirmed. _________________ "Oh my God. There she is. Lovely Sally Slater.
