So we were 31st last year We added a top 4 D, a middle 6 winger and swapped goalies Where do we get now? 26th?

Duclaire still available?

Man I would have taken that any day... It feels like we acquired no depth this FA. We just traded Hutton for Lehner

So where do people think he slots into the line up?

If we pay the bonus he isn;t going anywhere Maybe the Islanders or Sharks will freak out and trade for him

Can Riley Nash play LW?

Who is left? Neal is about it and he will be at least $7 million for 5 years

Because they don't have $16.6 million tied up in Okposo, Pominville and Moulson

ROR is the player that wins you playoff games. He is only 2 year older than Parayko and his style of play ages very well

Toronto signs a 1C to go with their 1C. Buffalo signs a 13 forward I look forward to the playoffs

Toronto wins again

Is there a site that lists the UFA, who they're from, their position and where they have signed?

It almost feels toxic if we dont now... But I really really like him as a player

Sabres were the ones to seek clarification on when they have to pay bonus

The offer has to blow me away. It can't just be fair market value Also for everyone saying we have the impact pieces drafted and so can settle for just drafting supporting pieces... this is why you benefit if you dont draft like crap. You can trade a 20th pick for one of the best centres in the game.

We need to get a centre in return. I am shocked how comfortable everyone is rolling with 1 centre next year

Sounds like ROR is gone :/ (Thanks Jack)

Jack will probably just drive him out #LockerRoomCancer

Yeah - i am not too sure either. But the point stands, if you have a job where you need to perform physically, then staying up partying till 11 hours before you have to be at the rink to get ready for the game is irresponsible and unprofessional. Would Crosby do it? Would Toews do it? Would McDavid do it? Honestly, I think it is very telling that Eichel isn't the team's captain. I think they desperately want him to be, but I think what lets him down is his 'tactical' professionalism. i.e. I dont question he isn't working hard this summer in a 'strategic' sense to get ready, but I question his ability to say "No, i'll go to bed at 11pm, so I can perform my best tomorrow." I hope Dahlin's competitive nature means he will make those choices, and maybe be a good example. Bring Orpik in and a couple others who will similarly do it. Furthermore, do they have to sacrifice the right to have a normal life - getting weekends off, having fast food, drinking lots every week etc etc.? Yes they do. But they are well compensated for these sacrifices.

And if the players think game prep starts at 5pm on the day of the game I think we know why we are an awful team

lol nice. That said I didn't realise Dubas was so young! Dubas and Chayka are both analytics kids and are the two youngest GMs interestingly. Arizona I kind of understand, but it is interesting how a traditional old school hockey market has given the control to the analytics kid.

Honestly, these guys are adults and paid a fortune. They shouldn't need a curfew to be professionals. Why do most people not stay up till 6am when they have work the next day? The reasoning is no different.

I assume by now word has gone out that he will be looking for x amount as a minimum to even consider offers. If Jason doesn't think he is worth x, then why bother talking to him?

I would be quite tempted to sign Orpik to a 1 (although i think it would take 2) year deal for a couple of million. Have him mentor some of the young defence
