Contract, trade speculation 'doesn't concern' Spezza

The Ottawa Sun points to the uncertainty surrounding Jason Spezza's future with the Senators, given that he only has one year left on his contract and the team didn't qualify for the post-season.

"When you don't make the playoffs there's disappointment and with disappointment comes the possibility of changes," said Spezza.

Also: "(The rumours) don't concern me," said Spezza. "We're all disappointed with how the year has gone and that's the reality of not making the playoffs and not having a good year as a team.

"It won't be the same group back next year. Whether it's a lot of changes or little changes it won't be the same group."
