2017 Offseason Thread 4.0 - Free Agent Frenzy Time

[fsanford]

Clearly he is being brought back to reignite Browns career

 

[BallPointHammer]

Is there room left for SJ to keep Thornton, Marleau?

 

[Basilisk]

Cammy-Kopitar-Brown
Pearson-Carter-Toffoli
Mersch-Shore-Brodzinski
Clifford/Auger-Dowd/Andreoff-Lewis
Extra: Nolan

1) Auger will not make this year's team.

2) You forgot Gaborik, Boko & Kempe.

3) Better than even chance that Vilardi surprises in camp & makes the team.



What does this translate to? I can *easily* see 3-4 guys from our bottom six being moved and/or demoted before the season begins.

Yes, according to Capfriendly, 18M left

 

[Peter James Bond II]

Iafallo has a shot for third line.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Yes, according to Capfriendly, 18M left

How many players do they need to sign to get to 23?

The deals don't kick in until next season (2018-2019).

 

[KopitarFAN]

Is there room left for SJ to keep Thornton, Marleau?

yea, next year could be a problem though, given they just committed $12.75M to Jones & Vlasic.

 

[SettlementRichie10]

Pipe dream, but with Thornton we actually have some forward depth again:

Pearson-Kopitar-Carter
Gaborik-Thornton-Toffoli
Cammalleri-Kempe-Brown
Clifford-Shoe-Lewis

 

[Reclamation Project]

I'll allow it.

Just last year, Cammy had 38 pts in 42 games. Would have led NJ in points with a full season. The PP just got better.

It's been a long career. I recall being at Healthsouth for the night rookie scrimmage game and it was his first camp there.
He was standing upper level at the one end by the glass, watching the game. NO ONE recognized him. I asked him how he was and
he had some minor injury and couldn't play. He has 287 goals and will be cool to see him score #300 in a Kings uni. Hopefully
at Staples.

this why Jumbo Joe and Marleau, are not getting a 3rd year offer. Sharks need to ink Pavelski and Couture.

 

[deeshamrock]

Dreger - GM's waiting to see where Marleau signs, then other signings should follow.
Odds are still with SJ but some teams offered 3 yrs, Marleau still deciding.

 

[KopitarFAN]

How many players do they need to sign to get to 23?

Seven.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

It's been forever since Cammalleri was healthy and appeared in 70+ games. Given the short term and money though, it's not a big deal as this is a low risk signing that won't have any consequences as it's a low cap hit.

 

[Basilisk]

Pipe dream, but with Thornton we actually have some forward depth again:

Pearson-Kopitar-Carter
Gaborik-Thornton-Toffoli
Cammalleri-Kempe-Brown
Clifford-Shoe-Lewis

If the shoe fits!!!

Hearing he'll sign with a Western Conference team. Deal believed to be close

He's talking about Hartnell

Hope it's Nashville and not the Kings, heard a few reports that LA was one of the teams asking. Please no...

Auger would have to clear waivers and according to hoven kings won't let him get plucked for nothing. Same with mersch.

Kempe can go back to AHL without waivers. Same with Brodz.

Gaborik is injured.

 

[Peter James Bond II]

gotta love this stuff...people putting 'good' info out there, without any details or chances of anything happening.

>>Keep Your Eyes On Nashville...
Told they are up to something pretty big... May or May not come to fruition....<<

I have chosen to not waste any time or thought, nor to keep my eyes on this.

Auger and Mersch would both pass waivers most likely.

Niether have the foot speed/Transition game teams are looking for in their Bottom six.

another cheap deal like Cammy not terrible. not great either. Dude probably wants to live on beach for a year. plus if he is even slightly productive and Kings end up tanking, you trade him for a pick
