Cool, I'm fan of it. Speed demon, good heart guy. Now bring back Wallmark.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Fast makes sense.

 

[MinJaBen]

Hope he’s cheap.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Fast feels like a pretty good Staal winger, yeah?

Takes Williams’s spot in the lineup and a right shot to boot.

Great fit if true.

[spockBokk]

Didn’t Fast play up in the Rangers’ top 6, on Panarin’s line?

Maybe he’d be a fit with the Finns, a guy to do that line’s dirty work. Or, he’d probably also fit in very well with Staal and Foegele.

 

[Brock Anton]

Fine. Nothing really else to say about it. Fair deal.

 

[GoldiFox]

One year longer than I'd want but a good depth signing.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

That’s about it for us for cap space

 

[MinJaBen]

Too long.

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

I very much like this signing. Pretty inexpensive for what he provides, and yet another coveted right shot for our 3rd line.

 

[DaveG]

Was hoping for under 2 mil per but this is about what I expected. Should solidify our 3rd line

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

Welcome to Carolina!

Perfect signing to replace Williams.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Pretty happy with that, good fit for the 3rd line RW spot with Jordo. A year longer than we'd ideally give, but good value on the AAV.

If you pencil in Foegs for at least $2m, that's four bottom-six wingers at that amount now plus Dzingle at $3.375...salary dump incoming.

 

[GoldiFox]

Seems like this signing pushes Dzingle back to the #13 spot. Nice to have depth that can jump in but $3.375 million is a lot to spend there

Deal McGinn, perhaps, then move Martinook to the left?

 

[Unsustainable]

Wondering how our lines play out.

I think we see Nino or Dzingle getting moved out

 

[spockBokk]

I think we see Nino or Dzingle getting moved out

I agree.

I doubt they’d sign Fast without having some sort of salary moving deal in their back pocket. Especially considering they may have Fleury and Foegele take them to arbitration.

Fast is a RBA type player to the max.
