We did something!

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

Oof.

 

[The Real JT]

Lou’s nap time is over.

 

[SCMURRAY]

Hopefully 3 or under per yr

 

[crashthenet]

Like 2.5 - maybe - eh

Hopefully 3 or under per yr

 

[The Wahligator]

Excellent addition! Brings a lot of what we need

 

[IslesNorway]

A couple of years too many for such an up and down player.

Love it he’s a 50 point player that can put up 20+ goals and has a ton of speed. Hopefully it’s not too high on the money end.

 

[The Real JT]

What, no 7 year deal with a NTC?

Considering the Isles’ cap space and the fact that they are not seen as a preferred destination or top-tier cup contender, these are the type of players that we are left with to fill the gaps in our roster.

All things considered, I don’t hate it.

 

[I Loveallsports]

Not sure how I feel about this. Inconstancy comes to mind.

 

[Strummergas]

I'm not fully erect over this signing, but I got a bit of a semi happening (and that's not due to age). Curious to see what kind of impact the Roy connection has.

 

[MichaelK]

Yes he is streaky, but that is what you get in FA when people like Panarin just use you to get contracts from other teams. Perhaps being reunited with Roy will help.

 

[Glorydays22]

Bad move....he's not good very inconsistent, disappears in playoffs totally. Should have uses our money elsewhere.

 

[seafoam]

Even a broken clock is right twice a day.

[GarfSnowed]

this is literally the perfect signing. Duclair will be unleashed on this team

 

[leeroggy]

Hopefully 3 or under per yr

Have you been paying attention to the AAV's for today? 24G in 71 games last year.

 

[Kevin27NYI]

The big thing for me is I see this as a net add of 15-20 goals.

He’s not replacing anyone in particular that we lost to trade or free agency.

 

[Arsenalogist24]

I hope I’m proven wrong but I don’t like giving 4 years to a guy on his 32nd team

Roy bringing speed in is great

 

[saintunspecified]

Interesting add. He's essentially a better Beauvillier - good speed, shoots a lot, meh defensively. But unlike Beau doesn't get pushed around nearly as much.

NYI still need a PK'er.

 

[I Loveallsports]

There goes his beard

 

[Richie Daggers Crime]

24G in 71 games last year.

8 teams in 9 years.
