08:29 AM ET 06.26 | Though not often lobbed, the offer sheet still looms large for teams who aren't able to come to terms with their own restricted free agents. There have only been six offer sheets signed under this CBA, with the last one coming in 2010 when the San Jose Sharks took aim at the Chicago Blackhawks when they gave defenceman Niklas Hjalmarsson a four-year, $14-million deal that was ultimately matched. That salary bump, however, eventually helped force the Blackhawks to walk away from netminder Antti Niemi, who then went and signed with San Jose. ... Two potential targets this off-season could be young goaltenders: Cory Schneider of the Vancouver Canucks and Tuukka Rask of the Boston Bruins.

refresh my memory... has signing away another team's RFA to an offer sheer ever worked out for that team?

Laugh if you will, but smart money says that TOR will give Schneider an offer sheet. If for no other reason, then it will Irk Mike Gillis.

Exactly. Rask and Schneider finally get to start for their teams. Why would they go anywhere?
