GDT: Free Agent Frenzy 2022

Well, not really. Easy to send out contracts in trades - for example, Kerfoot is an easy move with his $750k salary.

They need a change in the bottom 6.

If we're over the cap when we do it people are going to know we're desperate to dump salary and fleece us however

That's a big no from me.

I don't like the term. If Jack sucks then you're stuck with him, whereas Murray is off the books in 2 years regardless.

The term may have been the deal breaker for the club

Do we get Kubalik? I hope we make a move on that front.

 

[VanW27]

If Boosh is signed for 2.75mil, should we even trade Holl bc getting a late 1st or 2nd and 2mil cap space might not be able to get someone better.

Of course you won't, it's why trading Holl to free up cap space has never made sense.

 

[SprDaVE]

Domi at 3 million is way more than i would be willing to give him.

1 year show me contract on a bad team, and then get traded to a contender. It's a smart bet.

 

[Gallagbi]

What are you in dreamland, lol I guess you hate him is the only explanation. He ain't great but 3 mil for 1 year is not bad. I suppose we could acquire him at deadline and his hit would be like 1.5 only

Sounds like everyone hates Domi

Given he just signed in Chicago, he probablg hates himself too

He brought hits and nothing else to the table. They didn't even trust him to play on the PK lol

That I don't understand. You bring in a defensive physical d man and don't even use him on the PK. They even had Liljegren over him on the PK who they decided to scratch anyways.

I think at this point, unless we can get a Subban, Miller, or Braun for cheap and we are just fed up with Holl for whatever reason (or we get an offer we can't refuse), we will just keep Holl around.

Hopefully this starts to explain why we kept him over McCann...

 

[rocketman588]

I wouldn't want Boosh back at that price. Enjoy Buffalo.

At least 750k too much

 

[McSnypsky]

Do we get Kubalik? I hope we make a move on that front.

He was a good fit with Kampf in Chi wasn't he? might be worth looking into.

 

[CapspaceKiller]

Once they sign Engvall they have enough forward. Just not enough capspace to upgrade anywhere.

Eric Comrie to Buffalo - Friedman

$2.75 for Lyubushkin isn’t expensive. You just can’t look at overall league salaries with the Toronto budget lens.

 

[stickty111]

If you value defending you better be good at it, but he wasn't.

 

[Ziggdiezan]

I would say middle of the pack there's a lot making 5/6

Really eh, guess I'm stuck in a different era lol

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

See ya Cobra.

 

[OVO16]

Wonder if Gubrandson is a target?

 

[BertCorbeau]

A lot of these prices are a strong pass for me

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

$2.75 for Lyubushkin isn’t expensive. You just can’t look at overall league salaries with the Toronto budget lens.

I'd prefer 2.75 with Boosh as well. Especially when Holl is still here at 2M

 

[The Masters]

Yikes

Horrid signing for mikeyeve. Guy sucks

 

[Fogelhund]

For an offense only guy, who is trending downwards to 0.5PPG, doesn't provide much in the defensive zone, provides zero physicality? This isn't Domi from years back.

 

[Stephen]

Yeah that’s what I’m angling at. Plus you kind of group Kubalik with guys like Hagel as productive Blackhawks. Hagel is cheap but cost 2x first rounders.
