Stephen Yelle

Why hasn't he been signed yet? Was a solid checking-line player, I'm surprised nobody picked him up yet.

Took a step back last year. Wear and tear on his body may finally be taking it's toll. Hope he does sign somewhere though.

If he's cheap, I'd like the Flames to resign him. I like him, he doesn't score much at all, but he's useful.

judging from something Sutter said I am led to believe Yelle is leaning towards retirement... he said something along the lines of if Yelle wanted to play he would have no problem at all finding an NHL job

haven't heard much- though in the last few weeks I heard something about him coming to Boston but there's no cap room or roster spots (in my eyes) - so really, I have no idea.

As I reported on the Bruins board is brother was in at my work, I know the family quite well he's from my hometown, he said hes been talking to Boston, he's good buddies with Kobasew.

He still has gas left in the tank. The Flames do not really need him/have any room for him, but I think whoever signs him will get bang for their buck.
