So the Countdown begins...

With a mere 6 days remaining before this year's UFAs hit the market, here is a special feature dedicated to the top player at every position of this year's UFA class.

5) Goaltending: Dominik Hasek

The Dominator proved he still had gas remaining in the tank this season while compiling a 38-11-6 record with a 2.05 GAA and .913 SV%.

Eventhough those stats speak for themselves, Hasek was protected by an all-star defense, composed by guys like Matthieu Schneider, Nick Lidstrom and Chris Chelios. Hasek's key to success is health and good defense. If both elements are combined, he is in for a big success.

The only question is if a quality team is in need of a goalie?

All the teams currently in the hunt for a starting goalie possess a mediocre defense and are in need of a starter that can play every game, which spells disaster for Hasek if he is not re-signed by the Wings. Think of Phoenix, Boston, Los Angeles and Tampa Bay as "those teams".

In an other scenario than returning to the Wings, Hasek's comeback tour seems to be in jeopardy.
