GDT: Free Agent Frenzy

[jaster]

Omg, I thought that Perron deal was 2x2 for 4 total. It's 4 per year? I'm a bigger Perron fan than most, but hell to the no.

 

[norrisnick]

Amused watching this Tanev interview on NHLN and he's spending a couple minutes here waxing poetic about his Red Wing fandom as a kid.

 

[jaster]

Red wings are winners of FA so far because Kane’s contract is reasonable and they’ve avoided crazy town.

 

[GarlicbreadTB]

Honestly with some of the contracts today I'm not too upset if the Wings stand pat. But I hope maybe a real steal somewhere appears.

 

[datsyukfan]

Not much left out there. Better be some good trades coming or this team is taking a serious step back

 

[saska sault]

Zadorov on Boston..RIP everyone.

 

[JediOrderPizza]

No wonder money was so hard to move out, because GM's wanted to go friggen bonkers today.

 

[Bob Probert Owns You]

Remember that time when the Wings signed Hossa as an FA? That was good times...

 

[schuelma24]

This is the equivalent of falling into a shell to protect a two goal lead, but you’re actually the team behind by two goals

If we were signing any of these deals this board would be going ballistic.

thoroughly agree. some of these numbers are insane. Now, we could probably trade holl and maatta much easier to teams that struck out to move cap space around, but the whole point of doing that was after signing a couple high aav players.

now, I am truly worried that we won't be moving out holl or maatta or anyone else. At least @norrisnick will be extremely happy and we can stop hearing him say that we need to bring up the kids. We won't have a choice at this point lol

 

[datsyukfan]

There goes debrusk. Better be a couple good trades else I’m not sure why we paid to get rid of walman

 

[schuelma24]

I feel worse about next year and a lot better about the future after this insanity.

Hold the line Stevie!

 

[Squirrel in the Hole]

just for funzies, mantha went to calgary lol

He's on the fourth team of his disappointment tour. Only 28 more to go

 

[Euro Twins]

Lmao Murray back in Toronto

Monahan 5.5 x 5.

They are taking the word "frenzy" way too literally

GMs today

 

[Detroit Knights]

A lot of big names and all, but Toronto definitely improved. Their biggest issue has always been defense and adding tanev really helps. OEL started playing a more defensive role in florida than his typical offensive style last year right?

I remember watching the finals and the horrible broadcasting of ESPN was saying OEL and Forsling were being the shutdown pair.

 

[Run the Jewels]

DeBrusk is off to Vancouver. 7 years is too much term.

Dunno, I'd actually like that DeBrusk contract

Oel was 3rd pairing in Florida. He's going to be playing a bigger role in Toronto which he won't be able to handle.

All on board the leafstankarhon

 

[norrisnick]

For a team in a slow decline into hell, the Caps certainly shook shit up this offseason. Might not be any better, but they sure as shit will be different.

 

[Ezekial]

Poke Yzerman with a stick "do something"
