The Value Of Tim Thomas

from Brian Duff at the Hockey News,

Thomas is poised to become an unrestricted free agent this July.

How much is he worth? And for how many years?

It’s a real tricky spot for the Boston organization because regardless of how well he’s playing, his age has to be a major consideration. Should his game erode early on in a multi-year deal, there will be no way for the Bruins to buy him out because he’ll be over 35. And let’s not forget, salary cap mismanagement takes on even greater significance in difficult economic times.

Would anything less than a three-year deal be considered an insult for the Thomas camp and cause him to focus on greener pastures beyond the Massachusetts border?
