The players with salary cap ramifications could be particularly interesting to keep an eye on—Raymond (and Hansen) with the Canucks, Wheeler with the Bruins, and Niemi with the Blackhawks.  I would assume that some trades may finally start to fall into place once the decisions are made.  The Canucks may be $3.5 million over the cap after the two awards.

Why do they have players like Carcillo and Richardson listed on there when they have already re-signed?

Claude, from the story… red text signifies the players that have reached a settlement prior to their scheduled arbitration hearing

I believe all the ones in red have re-signed.  Meech, Boll, Carcillo, Richardson and Kaleta have all signed, so I’m guessing they’re ones who have signed since the list was perpared.
