Hey! My guy!

Hopefully he is as good for us as against us.

 

[Slapshot_11]

Who?

 

[bandwagonesque]

This is a fine bottom-6 signing, good on the forecheck and can keep up in the playoffs.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I liked him a lot as a potential fourth line target. Thought he would cost more, so I’m happy with this deal. He hits everything and had a career offensive year last year - hope he can replicate that.

 

[Jovofan]

Wow, awesome call, Mike!

 

[Yultron]

Patrick Allvin is AWAKEEEE!!!!

 

[Grip it N RYP it]

Hey! My guy!

You called it!

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Well done. I like this contract and player.

 

[Paulinbc]

Missed this in all the hubbub. Like the player. Good signing.
Truculence & tenaciousness is Allvin's theme of the day.

 

[MS]

This is one of the best contracts of the day. Scored at a 30 ES point clip from 12 minutes/game, hits everything that moves, rocket of a shot. Might even have more upward offensive ability than he’s shown.

He’s a better player than Trenin who got $3.5 million AAV.

 

[Nuckles]

I like this one. Very much a Tocchet kind of player. Very physical player

Was on a 32 point pace this season, all even strength points, playing 12 mins a game

Edit: MS beat me to it

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Loved this guy in the playoffs.

 

[vancityluongo]

very solid signing, provides the same sort of fit and versatility as heinen - can move up and down the lineup and chip in at a steady clip.

as we saw, can be a difference maker in the playoffs. great to have another guy like this. takes pressure off of someone like joshua to have to be that guy 100% of the time.

 

[Snatcher Demko]

I like the narrative here - all these guys should mesh well in Tocchett's style and add that playoff truculence.

 

[FroshaugFan2]

Looked a lot better than Lafferty in the playoffs. Nice deal.

 

[Nucker101]

Solid deal

 

[rea]

Hey one of my wants we got. Shweet

 

[Vector]

I love this contract and player. He doesn’t PK so he’s almost entirely an even-strength guy but really raised the floor of this team. Limited track record but looks to provide some needed 4th line scoring and physicality. Given what others got, this is fantastic.

 

[VanillaCoke]

Love this kid and an insane value deal

 

[God]

probably my favourite signing of the day so far. really hope he matches the intensity he brought in the playoffs against us that we lacked from other guys like lafferty.

 

[EpochLink]

probably my favourite signing of the day so far. really hope he matches the intensity he brought in the playoffs against us that we lacked from other guys like lafferty.

Sam Lafferty was rancid come playoff time, I thought he would raise his game but he just raised his stank.

 

[Cancuks]

Easily the best value signing of the day. I wanted this guy for a while. Will lead the team in hits and has good speed. I don't know why Nashville would let thim go just to sign a bunch of aging players.

 

[F A N]

Happy for the guy. He played really well against us. If that’s the player we get this is a great signing. Otherwise last season was his first full NHL season which makes the signing a bit risky.

 

[Burnaby Schmo]

Missed this in all the hubbub. Like the player. Good signing.
Truculence & tenaciousness is Allvin's theme of the day.

Picking up players he knows Tocchet will make good use of, instead of signing who the best person available is, for too much money, and have them like oil and water in the coaches system.

I really hope this works out!
