Simon Gagné LW 32 5250000 0 25 79 77 78 73 77 65 81 79 74 60 76 72 78 71 75
This is likely Gagne's last shot at signing a big contract. He'd like to be on a contending team once again for another shot at a Cup, and he is interested in a contract that will take him to retirement. If he is offered a deal with the proper term, he would be open to discussing a deal with a lower cap hit. However, with this being his last big chance at UFA, he has needs that must be met financially.
Gagne is looking for this to be his final stop before the end of his career, so a NTC would be a huge element in a deal.

Ed Jovanovski D 36 6500000 0 63 72 68 70 75 76 77 74 87 58 65 76 81 70 76 76
Jovanovski is the premier defenseman on this UFA market. He also wants to return to a contender. Being 36, a short term deal would seem logical. An NTC is not of critical importance, however it could sway his decision as he is looking to sign with a team who he feels has a strong opportunity to win a Cup.

Jamie Langenbrunner RW 37 2800000 0 49 73 75 71 74 74 78 76 88 69 53 83 77 73 75 76
Jamie understands his role at this point in his career. He expects to be a core third line presence with leadership capabilities. Having won 2 Cups already, Jamie would like to sign with a contending team, but he is more than willing to listen to offers from young teams who are now on the upswing.
