Around the League playoff edition

Simmonds heading to Toronto. $1.5M for one year. Surprised at the NMC, but I don't know too much about the pros and cons on both player/organization front regarding NMC.

His stats and play have taken a hit the last few years. I'm sure he just doesn't want to get sent to the minors should he suck.

Lowered expectations for Turris might be just what he needed. Not a bad signing from Edmonton.

I hope they don't count on him in the playoffs, because he just vanishes . 8 goals and 13 assists in 44 games. No goals in his last 14 playoff games.

Maybe Markstrom is on his way to Calgary with this news?

Even if each RFA signs for 1 mil, they're over the cap. It's going to cost a lot more than that.

They have to try to squeeze value out of every dollar they can. Hope signings like Turris are all they can really do. Get a guy cheap, and pray he outproduces his contract.

There is some chatter a team may claim Johnson so that would eliminate his salary. They are looking to move Coburn which is another $1.7 million. Gonna be tight!

[deeshamrock]

don't see this as a real upgrade

Full NTC, 35, 40 games this year, 3 in the playoffs. I don't know why anyone would want him, unless TB throws the kitchen sink along with him.

Yes, he signed 6yrs at 6M per, with Flames

 

[Bandit]

Hm, today is free agency? Who knew...

 

[fsanford]

So I guess money is important when trying to feed the frenzy.. So far a big dud

 

[Lt Dan]

LOL VCR signed Holtby

I haven't seen anything confirmed, but if that's the dollar value + term.

Probably has some form of NTC attached to it too.

Kings are rarely active on this day.
Post above may be part of the reason

Don't put that evil tweet on us from 2018. It was traumatizing two years ago, it's still traumatizing now.

I was surprised the board didn't crash after that Wayne Simmonds signing at 12:01 et.
