And Green Bay could learn a thing from the Colorado Avs.
"Unlike the Green Bay Packers, who pressed quarterback Brett Favre for a decision in March so they could plot their future with or without him -- an approach that ultimately backfired when Favre changed his mind, unretired and forced an ugly divorce that ended with him playing for the New York Jets -- the Avalanche took the opposite approach with Sakic.
Giguere told him to take as much time as he needed, even if that meant informing the team of his decision on the eve of training camp in September."
