GDT: NHL Free Agent Frenzy 2024

[Mighty Makar]

Damn, we lost Sean Walker? What an overpayment for a TDL piece.

We got rid of RyJo.

NAK, Sherwood, Jost, Greer, Dries, Pickard (a day or two earlier).

Which of these ones that got away would you take on their contracts?

None of them and all of them are both perfectly acceptable answers.

Pickard.

If we could add a little to Colton for Pinto, that would be nifty

It'd be worse if we had extended him, coz he was bad.

Could we sign Pinto for 4mil or less though?

 

[Ceremony]

Trade Colton for Pinto. Sign Pinto for 4.1mil. Big brain moves

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Wood is the guy I really wish we could just send to the moon right now. With our current roster he's a 4th liner making $2.5M. Just way too much and not good enough either.

Doesn't quite fix the cap issue.

He needs to bet on himself.

Still one of the more confusing moves we've made over the last few years.

At this point, Colton has all the power in a trade situation... which means you're trading to Tampa, Philly, New Jersey, or NYR. Good luck getting him to waive to a team where you can dump salary.

 

[Tommy Shelby]

You know the best part... the cap situation pretty much guarantees he plays!

3G now?

But who could've predicted that $2.5m for 6 years wasn't a great idea for a bottom 6 player?

He's the ultimate positionless player!

Trent Miner lol

[BobRossColton]

Trade Colton+Foudy for isak Rosen+2nd

Shoutout from Frank

It's fine. He isn't factoring in Nichushkin's suspension pro-rating his contract.

The Avs will have a minor move to make OR try to ensure Nichushkin is reinstated making less than 5M.

He has a NTC, but no NMC. Just send his agent the news article of Goodrow being waived and claimed by SJ. That'll show him not to waive his NTC!!

We’re going to be living in Fat Frank’s car on road trips.

 

[Cypher]

3G now?

Kahkonen, Reimer, Raanta, Lankinen, Jones, Schmid, Prosvetov, or Copley are still out there.

Avs have always been linked to Reimer and they do like they WSH cast-offs, so Copley, or just re-sign Provo are my guesses.

He should be a 4th liner on any roster.

If he was a top end 4th line down C who could play physical he might be worth his contract.

Not a penalty magnet one way winger.

Avs need to move roughly 1M to make it work.
