GDT: The Annual "I've Made a Huge Mistake" Thread: Free Agent Frenzy 2015

[Blueline Bomber]

Sounds like Parenteau is heading for Toronto. That's a bit disappointing. He would have been a nice snag.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Riley Nash! Woooooo.

1.15 AAV.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Canes signed Nash for some reason.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Riley Nash. Big signing

 

[Anton Babchuk]

We got riley nash!!!!!!!!!!

#thefuture

 

[DaleCooper]

Kessel goes to Pittsburgh.

 

[BrindAmours Army]

"The Carolina Hurricanes are proud to welcome back Tim Gleason. This concludes our free agent signings for this year"

 

[Wolfpuck]

Riley "Big Splash" Nash

 

[Brock Anton]

why.

 

[Bub]

We got R Nash! Woo! Wait...Oh.

 

[Joe McGrath]

Part of me wants Kessel deal to totally cripple Pittsburghs future, but the other part of me wants the return to be awful and Leafs fans to feel shame.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

Rissanen too now.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

It's exciting to be a Canes-fan atm.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

that's an absurdly good trade for pitt.

kessel is really darn good.

wonder if Francis gives jr a call now.

Apparently it's Kapanen, Harrington, and a pick. JR selling a team's future to "win now." Sound familiar?

 

[Joe McGrath]

Hoo boy, never change JR.

 

[nobuddy]

Excellent trade by JR. Excellent.

 

[Brock Anton]

JR wins that trade by a landslide, plus he kept Pouliot.

 

[Wolfpuck]

At least JR didn't get rid of Maatta or Pouliot

And TO retained salary?

Where was this JR when he was with us?

 

[Ole Gil]

You don't spend Crosby and Malkin's end of prime seasons planning for the future.

 

[nobuddy]

You don't spend Crosby and Malkin's end of prime seasons planning for the future.

Yup.

 

[Novacane]

God. That is awful for Toronto

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Yeah, that return is absolutely awful for Toronto.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

So, Canes signed Nash, Rissanen and Slavin now. #yawn

 

[Brock Ness Monster]

When is this conference going to happen? I just want it to be over
