You and I have both been here for 20 years. Everyone knows the players you like.

Like I've said a million times I like a mix of skill and tough players. Favorite Duck of all time Teemu Selanne.

Only team to not sign a FA and we’re well below the cap floor. Pathetic showing from a gm who claimed he wanted to add quality players and start being competitive. Bum ass gm

Bruh...

This is like hitting the buffet after the Klumps were there first.

 

[Smirnov2Chistov]

Not even one quality signing. We really are running it back with nearly the same group.

When will this GM be held accountable?

It's still very early. Besides, I am not altogether upset we didn't give out some of the crazy contracts that went out today.

2 years from now, probably.

We only have to make like two moves, considering how set the lineup is. Two trades and things will be pretty much set.

All the guys I would've wanted got either more term or more money than I would've given them somewhere else, not all that upset at Verbeek not handing out another future anchor contract personally

 

[Vaakou]

We will see what happens but i feel like we are going to sign bad contracts, i would just had prefered them being attached to somewhat useable players. That ship has sailed.

 

[AngelDuck]

There’s just not a ton of room on the roster unless someone moves. And that’s not even counting Colangelo and Luneau as guarantees

 

[Duck Off]

Frank was talking about how bad Colorado's cap situation is. Manson would be a good stop gap defenseman.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Most of these deals are pretty damn awful.

Looks like a trade will be the way to go

 

[GermanRocket7]

Can we, at least, sign Perry to have him retire as a Duck? Please?

 

[dracom]

Watch the only signing we make is bringing back Rico lol.

Held accountable for what?

he extended with the oil

Signed, Oilers 1,4m. Would be nice with a stanley cup apperance yes.

Training camp opens today? Shit, I must have missed the memo.

IDK what you expected? Pay Stamkos 9 mil for 4 years until age 39? Pay March 7 mil for 5 years until age 39?

The only deal that was made that I would have been Pesce or Roy just because we are that desperate for a RHD that can play the top pairing for the next couple years until Luneau is ready.

 

[SmokeyDuck]

Did we get outbid on every player we wanted?

Screw it, Manson for Helleson.

 

[Hockey Duckie]

bruins sure love our sloppy seconds

they've helped the Bruins make the playoffs the past two seasons. The Bruins are aiming for a third in a row. we've been picking in the top-3 for the past two seasons, ...

 

[ZegrassyKnoll]

I am a fan of Pat. I think he's got a vision and is pushing to get there.

That said, his UFA signings are probably his worst moves. It's wild to me that some of you can look at the contract he gave Strome and think "Yeah, do more of that!"
