Why only one year deals?

First year of using the cap. Clarke wants both Gagne and Johnsson long term. After this season, Brashear and Desjardins are both gone and that will free up somewhere around 5-6M. With other possible cuts/UFAs next season, both Gagne and Johnsson will get the long term deals they want. They've already said that they want to remain Flyers (Johnsson especially) and play with Forsberg.

I really hope they find a way to keep Handzuz.

Keep? You mean for this year? He's under contract. He was only being talked about as a possible trade to free up cap space for Forsberg (if they couldn't get anyone to take on JR's salary)

I mean that they don't trade him.  I guess it would depend on the trade but I think the sky is the limit for him.  Find another way to free up cap space for Forsberg.  Would Brashear alone do it?

They already cleared that space by trading Roenick.

By many accounts I've heard, the Flyers still might have to clear some space... and would do so by unloaded Brashear and/or Handzus.  It's silly to think there is zero chance that could happen and dismiss someone who's concerned.
