Free Agency Day 1: You're from Boston? Come on down

[Empoleon8771]

It's probably not legitimate speculation, but I'm seeing a fair bit of Beauvillier to Montreal stuff on twitter when I'm searching for Penguins related stuff.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Don’t hate DeBrusks number, just a lot of term.

Monahan signing is such a joke. Literally just signing a guy for sake of it

Contracts are too pricey but I think Lindholm and Zadorov help Bruins next year.

 

[Trade]

Gryz scored the OT GWG in the Beanpot 10 years ago

It’s all making sense.

Please god.

If we can get out of today with just Gryz on a cheap one year prove it deal, I'm fine.

If anyone wants a strong nhl network stream, dm me.

I have no issue with them not beeing active today, I only wish I had a shred of optimism that they might at least play som entertaining hockey while they suck, but with Dubas and Sullivan at the helm, not much chance of that either.. At least in a couple of years we might have a team that would be really good in a non contact leauge right?...

What do you mean? We’re cornering the market on Soo Grayhounds and Boston guys…come on

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I don't believe you for a second, you miserable f***.

There was some weird issue with Hollowell where when he faced his former team they all attacked him in the AHL this season.

Guess he wasn't well-liked with the Marlies.

You sure you're not confusing him with Mark Friedman?

 

[Bishop7979]

There aren't many deals I've seen so far that I've been like "I'd have paid that".

Maybe arvidsson (but he took that low a cap hit because he thinks he can win in ed if bet)

Bean

Duhaime are about it so far.

 

[Turin]

I can’t believe people are looking at that Caps roster and feeling envious. Defense and goaltending is solid now, but the forwards? If Ovechkin, Wilson and Oshie take another step back they are absolutely cooked

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Dubas should call Trotz and see what he’ll add to dump Glass so he can sign Stephenson and fill out roster

 

[Malkinstheman]

Oshie isnt even playing next season. Most likely hes retiring. So they have a rapidly declining Ovechkin, PLD, Wilson and Strome

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Sid is silly. He shouldn’t extend.

lol. you really got no perspective on the league.

 

[TimmyD]

Wedgewood to Nashville. Askarov trade potentially close?

It’s not their roster… it’s that they’re actually going out and trading their vets for young players that they’re taking a chance on…meanwhile we just give lip service

 

[Empoleon8771]

Lmao Dubas

At least it's only one year.

 

[Malkinstheman]

Day 1 totals in past free agencies. We're 1 hour in to today lmao. GMs are such morons

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

how do Caps get compliant?

 

[wej20]

Lmao Dubas

At least it's only one year.

Sometimes it is better to go home alone.

 

[Gurglesons]

Lmao Dubas

At least it's only one year.

This is actually a solid deal tbh.

 

[Empoleon8771]

how do Caps get compliant?

Backstrom and Oshie on LTIR gets them to about $2 million in cap space. But yeah, it's actually really close.

 

[Sidgeni Malkby]

I dunno, but they’re not signing FA with term

That's fine, but if you are looking for a top 6, you have to pay to play.

It's been 39 minutes...

1hr and 5min now .

I'm wasn't referring to what's happening in UFA only, just overall. Unless it really is thaaat tough out there to trade Smith.

Bargain bin sales don't start at noon.

True...but the bargain bin, you user for bottom 6. I really thought Dubas would be in on a top 6 winger. I mean there aren't even any rumors that we were in the mix.

I mean Chychrun for Jensen and a 3rd? We couldn't have given them that?

 

[Dennis Reynolds]

Reminds me of the Matt Hunwick signing.
