Is he this year's Sundin? I wouldn't go there...yet...

However, the truth of the matter is that Tanguay appears no closer to a decision today than ever before. Sources are telling me the 5 million dollar range is not in play and that it's a matter of getting closer to 4 with more years in a worse situation or taking a better situation for less.

The money is just not really out there for Alex and he now runs the risk of competition from players such as Zherdev...

UPDATE: There is a ridiculous rumor out there that Tanguay's highest offer is 1.2M. This is completely absurd. He has offers now in the 2's and 3's.

Listen to the Buzzcast at noon below...more rumors this afternoon...
