Joe Nieuwendyk and Gary Roberts have signed with the Florida Panthers. The Maple Leafs lose a lot of grit and heart but get younger, which is a good thing.
Without Nieuwendyk, Roberts, Owen Nolan and Alexander Mogilny in our lineup next season, it's going to be a very different team. Rumours are Tie Domi and Brian Leetch may also sign elsewhere, taking yet two more veterans out of the mix. Here's hoping some good young players come on board during this free agent signing period. Forsberg and Niedermayer, come on down!
