There's no doubt that most veterans in the NHL want to keep playing, and think they have enough left in the tank.
However, it all comes down to if teams are willing to take a risk on aging players.
One veteran that wants to keep playing is UFA defenseman PK Subban. Despite the reported lack of interest around the league, his agent has stated otherwise.
Subban appeared in 77 games for the New Jersey Devils last season, recording 5 goals and 17 assists.
Stu Cowan of the Montreal Gazette, spoke to Subban's agent Don Meehan, who said:
''Some of these issues are in play as we speak, so I can't get a definitive response from some teams in terms of moving ahead, but I have had expressions of interest for him to date. But the teams that have expressed interest aren't in a position to contract now because they've got other things in play.''
Similar to the Nazem Kadri situation, Subban and his agent are waiting for teams to move money to make things work.
Will somebody take a chance on the 33-year-old defenseman?
