Not a huge fan, but at that price....sign me up.

This tells me Morgan Rielly or Alex Kerfoot are being traded. Cap doesn’t work otherwise

 

[Mr Knies Guy]

Could consider than a done deal my friend, Friedge is the shizz.

Not sure how I feel about it, but don't hate it. Wish the guy played like his size consistently.

Nevertheless, a good fit for us and hyped to see if he can produce.

I think it's Engvall first.

I think it's Engvall first.

Even if we moved Engvall, the cap doesn’t work.

One of Kerfoot or Rielly will need to go regardless.

Im not even sure Engvall + Mikheyev being moved ends up working

 

[aingefan]

Fine signing.
If there’s a way to motivate him to play with more consistency and intensity, there’s a good chance he’ll outplay his contract by a lot.

 

[skacore]

Let’s go!!!!!

Looks like Kase/Ritchie are our final forward additions. Not the prettiest acquisitions but we certainly look better than a few days ago.

Curious how Keefe will go about making the lines because we still dont have anyone who's truly a top-6 left wing

Bunting-Matthews-Marner
Robertson-Tavares-Nylander
Ritchie-Kerfoot-Kase
Simmonds-Spezza-Mikheyev
Brooks, Engvall

?????

Were under the cap by over a million if Engvall gets sent down.

I'll gladly take Kase and Ritchie short term over Hyman at 7/5.5.

I like that the contract is reasonable and doesn't preclude Robertson getting a look at LW1

 

[crump]

Everybody happy now?

 

[Warden of the North]

Nice.

The meltdown this board had selecting Willy over Ritchie at the draft is now even more hilarious

 

[Clark4Ever]

I'm good with this. He will have an opportunity to play with very talented linemates and outperform his contract.

Hopefully, he has matured and will put in the necessary work ethic on a consistent basis playing for his hometown.

I still want Bertuzzi as well.

Don Cherry will like this. 15 goals last year. Should be able to get 20 playing with 34 or 91.

Still fairly young too at 26 seems like many PWF take longer to grow into the league, like goalies. I think he's got hands and skill, decent enough skating, just the inconsistent effort that scares me a bit.

Works with Mikheyev traded

Ritchie-Matthews-Marner
Bunting-Tavares-Nylander
Engvall-Kerfoo-Kase
Simmonds-Kampf-Spezza
Brooks

Rielly-Brodie
Muzzin-Holl
Sandin-Dermott
Biega

Campbell
Mrazek

=250k in cap space

 

[PromisedLand]

LMAO all the boston cast offs welcome I guess

I guess this means good bye to either Engvall/Mikheyev or both

 

[Avilaj07]

I would love for us to add Bertuzzi now.

Bertuzzi-Matthews-Nylander
Bunting-Tavares-Marner
Ritchie-Kampf-Kase
Spezza-Brooks-Simmonds

Engvall, Kerfoot, and Mikheyev all moved

 

[Dayjobdave]

Nice.

I really hope they are linemates.
