The Maple Leafs are close to signing Dion Phaneuf to a seven-year contract extension, a source confirmed to ESPN.com Saturday, although there remains details to iron out before the deal gets done.

Penguins head coach Dan Bylsma says forward Pascal Dupuis could miss the rest of the season with a knee injury, according to an ESPN.com report.
Bylsma said Friday after the team's game-day skate that Dupuis will have surgery "in a couple of weeks" to repair his anterior cruciate ligament.
The upper-body injury that Red Wings defenseman Jonathan Ericsson suffered Monday night against the Islanders turned out to be a couple of fractured ribs.
Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock told the Detroit Free Press on Tuesday that if he had to guess, Ericsson will be sidelined three to five weeks.
Sharks forward Tomas Hertl will undergo right knee surgery next week, sidelining the rookie for more than a month, according to an ESPN.com report.
GM Doug Wilson said Monday that the team will know more about how much time Hertl will miss following the surgery.
In his first game back after missing 17 games with a sprained left knee, Jackets right wing Marian Gaborik again was sidelined with a broken collarbone, according to an ESPN.com report.
The team announced after a win over the Flyers on Saturday night that Gaborik had been placed on the injured list and would be out indefinitely.
NHL rookie scoring leader Tomas Hertl will be out at least a month, if not longer, with a right knee injury, the Sharks confirmed Saturday.

Blue Jackets right wing Jared Boll will be sidelined three to four months following surgery to repair a torn tendon in his ankle, club GM Jarmo Kekalainen announced today. The surgery was performed by Dr. Greg Berlet at OhioHealth’s Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Center on Monday.
“Our initial hope was that Jared would be able to return to the lineup with rest and rehabilitation, but it became apparent over the past few days that surgery was the best course of action,” said Kekalainen. “We’re disappointed for Jared as he has worked very hard and is an important part of our team, but we expect him to make a full recovery and hopefully return to the lineup later this season.”
Boll, 27, has appeared in 21 games this season, scoring one goal and adding 38 penalty minutes. He was placed on Injured Reserve on November 26 retroactive to November 22 when he logged 9:07 of ice time at Vancouver.
Columbus’ fourth pick, 101st overall, in the 2005 NHL Draft, Boll has registered 25-28-53 and 1,001 penalty minutes in 409 career games.
Steven Stamkos can't say his timeline has moved up because there's no specific return date set. But the Lightning forward is back on the ice, which is remarkable considering it's been just more than a month since he broke his tibia on Nov. 11.
Cameras caught him skating before the Lightning took the ice in Saturday practice prior to their loss to the Devils, and that wasn't even the first time he's been on the ice since crashing into the net in Boston.
"I've been on a couple times," Stamkos told ESPN The Magazine on Sunday.
