Damn. I wanted him. He will be a good fit there - can steady their defence

They only have about 5 players older than 30 i think

They would make a good young core

I wouldn;t mind trying for Mueller - 25yo UFA

Difference in replies. What would stop you saying "So we are looking to shore up our top 6 wing, we are confident player x can fill in one slot, which would give us $4million to fill the other slot" That is basically philosophy

It was a 2-day negotiation period wasn't it?

Wow. This is really shocking. I thought he would resign with Ottawa and get traded if they weren't in contention

Yes. Because they are UFAs. Everyone else cannot sign until tomorrow because that is when their current contracts runs out, so they are not a UFA until tomorrow

Minny gets Ballard for 3mil over 2 years

Yeah :( I don't understand how we got voted 8th best pool- i think ours looks barren after top 10

Poor Morrow, three NHL teams and not a game in the league. Expensive cost for the Stars - Morrow and Smith should make decent NHLers. Sequin best up his game

Ericsson is the most under rated player in the league. I would do Ericsson for Sequin straight up

A fan who eats at Buffalo Chophouse?

It might be easier to fill our top 6 than first expected. Who is going to play centre for Toronto next season? Kadri and Bolland as their top two? Maybe the playoffs are a viable target...

The room i live in at uni is 221 years older than America Commiserations on seceding today (237 years ago) :P Hope everyone has a nice BBQ with friends, or whatever is normally done

Larsson was ready to play in the NHL when we got him (according to MIN fans) but they said we would be best off letting him finish the season in the AHL and starting him this year.

Matt is meant to be one of the nicest guys you could meet. I'm happy for him. He is a good filler energy guy if he is in the NHL because of injuries and he is a good role model for Rochester, showing the kids it is important to give 100% every shift

Is that how he got on both NHL star teams this year? http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=676355&navid=nhl:topheads

The guy is 38 or 39, hasn't played hockey in over a year and is a lockerroom cancer. Who on earth wants him? He put up good stats behind the best defence in the league. He will be an awful goalie behind the Flyers defence (because of the age/missed time)

Yes he did, but for the last two seasons he played RW

Briere would probably play RW, as he did in Philly

Flyers giving up on goal/defence this year?

Makes sense. The guy has nothing to learn in the Q

Galchenyuk is American. Personally I think 25-48 games is too little to start including or excluding players from being a number one centre. This next full season, with a training week, exhibition games and that bit more time for the youngest player in the NHL to mature and we should get a better idea
