This is what happens when other players truly believe a team can win the SC.

I dunno, I don't see much difference between the middle-six forward group and the one they were icing in 2014-15:

Pouliot - Purcell - Yakupov - Roy - Lander - Perron

 

[WaitingForUser]

We are not just primed to take the divison we are primed to take the presidents trophy and get home ice throughout the playoffs

You forgot right? RIGHT?????

 

[JeffSkinner53]

A plus, got some wingers for Drai

 

[The Panther]

I don’t think a grade can be given until Draisaitl resigns.

I know it was tough to lose game 7, but I don't think Drai is going to just resign!

 

[WaitingForUser]

A plus without a doubt. He brought every important piece back and added TWO top six wingers for 7 million combined. Are you kidding me? How the hell did that just happen??

 

[ManofSteel55]

I'd say an A. Not an A+ only because to me, A+ means perfect, and we still could upgrade the 2nd d-pair, and I'm still on the fence with Jeff Skinner.

McLeod + Ceci to a younger rebuilding team may be enticing and likely not difficult to pull off.

San Jose need a RD?

I would think Ceci has enough value to be moves for futures. Worse RD were signed to worse deals today, and there will still be teams out there who need an RD so badly that they consider Ceci.

 

[KlefDown]

Definitely an A, A+ could be argued as well

 

[BudBundy]

is it just me or have live threads become impossible to post in. Anything more than a two line post and it freezes then refreshes and you have to start over.

 

[NedPlimpton]

A+

I had a busy day and wasn't able to watch any coverage or keep up with the news, so when I finally checked in at the end of the day I was incredibly happy and just as glad to not be shocked by any bonehead signings as well.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

A+. Jackson slaughtered it today.

Josh Brown sucks, but he’s buriable. Perry maybe overpaid by $200.

That’s it. No notes. This team looks like a juggernaut.

Still need a top 4 RD though.

Get brave browser it’s like coming on HF 10 years ago trust me on this

If you change your vote from a C- to a real score I'll tell you how to fix it.

Legit LOL’ed at this post, well done.

 

[Vagabond]

A+

 

[The Panther]

I'm pleased they've signed the players they've signed.

Skinner is yet another Toronto guy...

lol.

 

[Sra1974]

Very, very good, better than I thought. A- though cause it wasn’t perfect. Perry seems extraneous and while the forwards got a lot of love little worried the d didn’t.

 

[McFlyingV]

A+ with the signings, I just wish there was a creative way to shed some cap and boost the right side D. But the fact we are heading into the season with our playoff team plus two legitimate top 6 wingers is absolutely incredible.

There is. LTIR Kane and trade Ceci+++ at the deadline for a top 4D.

 

[Oilhawks]

o look a flames fan voted c- in this poll.

that changes my vote from B+ to A.

Want to be as far away from that vote as possible

I was pretty happy before I left for my anniversary dinner with Mr5 and came home to seeing Skinner, Henrique, Janmark and Stetcher all signed.

Manager? We don’t need no stinkin’ manager.

We got the Jackson 5!

@Oilhawks are you happy now? Promises delivered!

Oh yes indeed...haha

Said in the Rumours thread that I'm enjoying a conveyer belt of crow today

 

[The Nuge]

I would argue it’s about as good of July 1st as we’ve ever seen from any team.

That’s the thing that stands out to me as so insane. It’s hard to ice as good of team as in the cup finals because of the cap allowing for deadline acquisitions. We somehow have every player back except for Foegele who actually got significantly upgraded to Arvidsson. AND we somehow added Skinner on top of that.

 

[McFlyingV]

I'd say an A. Not an A+ only because to me, A+ means perfect, and we still could upgrade the 2nd d-pair, and I'm still on the fence with Jeff Skinner.


I would think Ceci has enough value to be moves for futures. Worse RD were signed to worse deals today, and there will still be teams out there who need an RD so badly that they consider Ceci.

Go watch a couple highlight videos of Jeff ripping the pill beating goalies clean and completely undressing them with his figure skating. You'll be off the fence soon enough.

 

[Gordy Elbows]

I was gonna vote A- cause we didn't dump any bad cap.

But Skinner, Arvie, Brown, and Rico? Yeh this is A+ for me. I'd be greedy wanting more.

We are over the cap….and still need a defence upgrade. So, there is more to come. Can’t wait!

True more should be on the way. Nurse gone if we win the jackpot. Ceci gone also fine.
