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

[Finnish Jerk Train]

i crashed my car while refreshing HF

several are dead

Is this why Six Forks is backed up? Jerk.

 

[Zezima]

how tf are we a better roster

 

[Blueline Bomber]

For the future? Sure. In the present? Eh....

 

[TheOllieC]

We're not going into the season with this forward lineup...right?

They have to get a winger somehow.

 

[nobuddy]

Really sounds like Hanifin's gonna be on the team next year.

Told ya so.

 

[Brock Anton]

this forward crop is an embarrassment.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

No, Six Forks is backed up because it sucks.

 

[GoldiFox]

For the future? Sure. In the present? Eh....

Bottom-5 team subtracted Semin, Dwyer, Bellemore, and Hillen and gained Wisniewski...

So... Bottom-6 team?

 

[nobuddy]

my wife left me.

 

[DaveG]

And another dman to play with Faulk... Nevermind that sounds like we're signing Noah

 

[Lucky Lindy]

They're planning on playing with 10 D each night.

Riley Nash can be moved to wing

 

[Joe McGrath]

I mean, the roster is marginally better, but is that anything to write home about?

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

francis says he wants to make sure anyone he signs is the "right piece," doesn't want to block young players


WHAT YOUNG PLAYERS!?!?!? MCGINN???

 

[Swag Surf Aho]

added: Lack, Hanifin, Wisiewski

Lost: Semin, Khudobin.

Take that for what you will.

 

[Francis10]

Oh man are we going to be brutal this year. In a few years maybe be ok, but these next couple are going to be rough. Get used to drafting in the top 5 boys.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

So much for already having teams lined up to sign him...

 

[Vagrant]

Still not sure how anyone thinks Francis is anything different than Rutherford. This is the most Rutherfordesque move ever. Holding a press conference an hour and a half into free agency to discuss the non-moves they didn't make and **** talk Semin. Looking forward to seeing the same group out there again for the fifth consecutive year. I'm sure it'll work out better this time around.

toronto gave up MORE!?!?!? lulz

Same ingredients, better pizza?

At least Toronto received about 100x less than expected by their fans for Kessel. That is my only solace after months of "5th + Semin for 7th rounder is fair!"

I agree 1000000%.

I see nothing different really between these two.

[Anton Babchuk]

my wife has left me again due to my pending vehicular homicide charges

Yeah, I'm not sure what Shanahan was thinking, but he got fleeced by Rutherford.
