GDT: Free Agent Frenzy Part II - Awful deals galore! (Clowe to NJ)

[Synergy27]

Give them away for free!!!!!

They tried, eh?

 

[ColonialsHockey10]

Also, I love the subtle sympathy everyone has for Columbus. They're a hockey franchise just like all the others.

The Horton signing is not a good one.

 

[hi]

Just woke up from a nightmare in which Sather signed Clarkson.

Michael Russo ‏@Russostrib
#mnwild re-signs Jared Spurgeon to 3-year deal

 

[Inferno]

So anyone want to take bets that Richards will out perform anyone who signed this offseason?

he wont outscore Lecavalier...they have so much offense on that team.

 

[broadwayblue]

he's soooooo sssslllloooowwwwww.

hes talented, and if it was say 3x3.5 id say it was a good deal, but a player with SERIOUS injury concerns, who is extremely slow, coming off of the worst season in his career....and you give him that deal?

IF it works out, great for them, right now, im not sure how anyone can consider this a good deal.

Yeah, that's almost as bad as the deal we gave Redden. Why teams think it's sensible to throw huge dollars/years at players who are clearly on the downside is bizarre.

When did the free agent market officially open? Tons of signings already - I thought it was today at 3?

Don't like the Clowe deal for the Devs, but our luck is he'll have no concussion issues at all for the next 4 years and average 20 goals per year. ****ing Devils.

Was hoping to keep Clowe on a 1 year deal, but f that, 5 years - no way lol

noon

RFA Tyler Kennedy gets a two-year deal worth $2.35 million per season from #SJSharks, according to agent @BBarts

That's not bad for Kennedy

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Couture gets 30m over 5 years = less for Stepan's deal

Clowe won't score 20 goals again in his career once, let alone 4 times. lol

#Blackhawks re-sign both Handzus and Rozsival. Official.

Rozi back to Chicago

Mark Lazerus ‏@MarkLazerus 47s
Rozsival gets a two-year deal from the #Blackhawks, Handzus a one-year deal.

 

[Kershaw]

Per James Mirtle, Hawks re-sign Roszival

 

[broadwayblue]

Couture gets 30m over 5 years = less for Stepan's deal

Did anyone think Stepan was getting 6M+?

 

[NikC]

So anyone want to take bets that Richards will out perform anyone who signed this offseason?

i'll take bets as well. Richards will have very good year. some many short sighted immature posters on here. I'm not saying richards is still in his prime, but every and all players have bad years.

richards is a class act and will rebound.

Renaud Lavoie ‏@RenLavoieRDS 1m

Roberto Luongo is still looking at his options. We don't know yet if he'll accept to go back to Vancouver. #RDS

His only option would be to h old out, but holy **** would it be wild if he did.

Give me Jonathon Blum and Lapierre or D. Moore at reasonable terms and I will mark Sather as the UFA winner today!

 

[Frolic and DeTorts]

OT a little, but is Phoenix changing its team name to the Arizona Coyotes?

And still nobody will have heard of them. lol

Good for Rosie.

Believe so, it's an attempt to get everyone in the state interested and feeling involved.
