According to sources, Vezina Trophy winner and royal pain Tim Thomas is considering sitting out next season.<\/p>\n
Let us rephrase.<\/p>\n
The 38-YEAR-OLD<\/strong> Tim Thomas is thinking about taking a sabbatical.<\/p>\n Now isn’t the time to be wasting another year of your hockey life, Timmy.<\/p>\n Many speculate, however, that Thomas is only hinting at this to force the Bruins into trading him. Thomas has one year left on his contract which pays him $3 million, although his cap hit is $5 million. His no-trade clause lifts July 1. <\/p>\n\n\n Amen. In Rask we trust.
