FINALLY!!!

The Toronto Maple Leafs can finally look for some blueline help.

The agent for defenseman Robert Svehla, Rich Winter told the Fan 590 radio station in Toronto that his client will make his retirement official, therefore freeing up $4 million for the Leafs to spend.

Svehla, 34, announced his retirement during the world hockey championships in May but the Leafs - aware that he had attempted to retire when he played with the Florida Panthers - picked up his $4-million US contract option for 2003-04 to prevent Svehla from playing in Europe.

More details to follow.
