Defense Wins Chanpionships
Good signing. Makes Zajac more expendable.
What? Zajac is here to stay until his contract is up.

On a day when the hope was to land a #1 D, but the best we could come up with was Brian Boyle?
Let the debate about ownerships willingness to spend resume.
There were no #1 defensemen available, and we made competitive offers for the best defensemen available, so not sure what their is to debate?
This is part of my frustration.
People were arguing full steam to bring in Shatty, over pay, who cares about years 6-7, but now I have to hear there were no big time d-men out there. Or we made a competitive offer, what else could we do?
I am not expecting to be in the cup finals this season. So I look for Improvement. IMO Boyle is an improvement, getting rid of Cammy and DSP was an improvement. Letting Bennett go was an improvement. Three of these improvements just open space, improve the cap position and rid us of players that won't help us stay status quo. It's early I believe in Shero trying to make the right moves. I hope we keep Kovy for a year if he is coming back. For now I just want to see an improvement. For me last year was not an improvement.
Go Devils.
He could have stayed in Toronto for that.
I thought this was one of the better value signings of the day. What will your forward lines look like?
Don't see it happening. I think Kovy goes back to Russia and good riddance.
Lol Boyle is a 4C. Nothing more. He does not add grit and toughness just because he is 6ft6.
Fine signing, but many of you are drastically over rating what he is.
he will bring leadership, sandpaper, some penalty killing, and be the 4C. We need these things.
that IS who he is. Have you ever watched him before?
Who is "overrating" what he is? No one is expecting him to be on the 1st line or anything
Why, because the Devils won't sign or trade him? Just curious.

Won't sign.
Plus, have you seen what his demands are? 3 years minimum? Yeah...no.
We could sign a bag of pucks and Tundra would think it makes Zajac expendable.

Do you have to put a negative spin on every move the team makes? No one is overrating him, he's a 4th line center and one of the most dependable 4th line centers in the league. That's who we signed and everyone seems to be satisfied with that except you. Would you prefer we have Josefson back there this season?
