Sounds like it’s going to be 4 years around 5 million per

Bertuzzi was one of my prime targets, as someone that adds beef to the top 6.

Perfect if true!

The guys at CHGO don't want Bertuzzi on the team for reasons...

Interesting to see their take if he actually signs.

Very solid. Can’t wait to see how some will manage to complain about it though.

They're still stuck on his p.o.s. Dad. Not to say Tyler isn't a little shit himself but he strikes me as the type of guy you hate when he isn't on your team but love when he is on your team. Hawks did their due diligence on his character. Plus it helps that Foligno and Dickinson have both played with him in the past. If Bert was an issue, one or both of those guys definitely would've said something to the front office.

Todd is his uncle. Although Tyler is an anti vaxxer so maybe not the brightest. Haven’t heard teammates ever complain about him though.

He is listed at 6'2", my guess is much closer to 5' 11" .

After Bertuzzi, we probably only really need one more forward signing.

Duclair, Roslovic, and Foegele seem like the most likely candidates to fill that spot. They're all fast middle sixers.

Also can't completely rule out circling back on Lafferty, though that would be for the bottom 6.

Love the Foegele mention. He is a LuRich player through and through. Had a tremendous playoffs and works his bag off. Could see us going for a guy like this and playing him more minutes than most teams probably would.

Would also love to see one more PP specialist signed for cheap. Just one more guy for people to key in on other than Bedard. Even though he is garbage defensively, a cheap Jeff Skinner would help in that regard. Maybe a Marchessault.

Bertuzzi isn't a needle mover for me but he is instantly the team's second-best forward so at least there's that

 

[statswatcher]

i really like bertuzzi. maybe a bit of an overpay, but only by about a million or so, and that's reasonable for signing with this team. also looking at some of the other deals that are getting signed i might be judging by too old a standard.

 

[ndgt10]

That signing might move this team out of top 5 worst next year.

Panthers extend Sam 8yrs $8.625 million

Damn you Florida state taxes.

 

[Section88]

I like the Bertuzzi signing, interesting they pivoted from 2 year contracts in the last few extensions to now a bit more term

 

[MTU34]

I don’t particularly like Bertuzzi but I get why it had to happen. That’s a legitimate top 6 forward with a skillset this team desperately needed

 

[Mrfenn92]

One more top 6 winger please

 

[Mrfenn92]

Sam Carrick to New York

Hawks are in on Stolarz.

Makes sense

How about a shane pinto offer sheet kids

I dont wanna piss any teams off by doing that. Especially considering we will have problems down the road with keeping everyone. Unless it's the Rangers for the Kevin Hayes greasy deal.

 

[clydesdale line]

Cap friendly already has it up.

Makes sense. Soda was terrible. You need someone back there that can give the team confidence that they have a chance

 

[Mrfenn92]

Eric Robinson to carolina

Marchessault to hit free agency

 

[MTU34]

I wouldn’t want to put our first on the line for that

Wow. Guentzel got PAID.
