GDT: Let the Free Agency Madness begin

Geekie is a Bruin

 

[Svechhammer]

Reimer heads to Detroit to run it back with Ned

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

That Gudas signing won’t look good

Sabres gave Erik J 3.25? Lolz

Boo

 

[mikeyfan]

They don’t because they would have to clear any space used before activating Svech

True, but if we go over by say 3 million by the time Svech comes of LTIR, it would put us below the Cap after taking off the salaries paid out.

 

[WreckingCrew]

Not super-thrilled, but not really bothered by returning our 3-headed goalie monster. They all have the ability to play lights out or shit the bed completely. Gives Koochie a year to prove himself with Auntie as insurance. Next year he needs to take over as full-time backup, but this setup effectively gives us 2 more years to figure out or improve our G situation if the right alternative deal pops up. Can't complain about Auntie & Freddie signing cheaper 1-2 year deals.

Well I'm glad not to pay Korpisolo his $$$... not much Goalie availability

I want the mayhem guy in the canes war room right now

It’s laughable how TSN loved this deal. Have you seen him play TSN panel? Have you seen Smith’s defensive structure?

Hellebuck is gonna get paaaaaaaaaaiiiiiid

 

[spockBokk]

Gimme Duchene or Tarasenko and I’m mostly happy for today. They’d then have the rest of the summer for bargain shopping and potentially maximizing Pesce’s value if he’s not re-signed

McClennan said there was “no downside” to giving Korpisalo a 5-year deal lol

 

[spockBokk]

I’m pretty apprehensive about them paying up for Karlson. I was the same way about Burns, but still, don’t really want him…

 

[mikeyfan]

Ltir is all or nothing

But once activated all the prorated salaries kick in, we can be under the cap or send a player of lesser cap hit down to get under the cap. Correct?

Honestly, we could conceivably afford both right now if we go cheap elsewhere.

Pesce for Nylander
Trade for Ek retained
Sign Tank

Take a nice vacay in Turks and Caicos

Yes. But we will have no cap space the first day he is activated so we won’t be able to bring that 3 million back for days, if not months.
