Tennessean - Paul Kariya's decision to enter the free agent market means that in all likelihood, the Predators will have lost their leading scorer from last season in addition to their starting goalie, best defenseman and a promising young forward.

The Predators had hoped to re-sign Kariya, their top points producer in both his seasons in Nashville, but General Manager David Poile said the question marks surrounding the franchise's future were too much for the two sides to overcome.

"He's definitely going to go into free agency and it's certainly looking doubtful based on our conversations and the uncertainty of our franchise that he'll be coming back here,'' Poile said Thursday
