With all the playoff races, and the excitement of what should be the best playoffs we have ever seen, it is almost impossible to fathom that UFA Day 2022 is only 96 days away.
Yes, for those of you who are curious, UFA Day 2022 will NOT be on Canada Day, July 1st. It won’t be on the Fourth of July either… Instead on this Canada Day/Independence Day NHL people will actually get to hang out with their families and enjoy the kickoff to summer…
UFA Day was moved to July 13th and a week after the Draft, which will be held in beautiful Montreal on July 7 and 8. That draft will be something. It is possible the the Hometown Habs could be drafting their next legend…perhaps Shane Wright, AND announcing a Carey Price Trade in their own building..
These dates show that we are only 2 weeks away from the NHL “catching up” after Covid. Knock on wood…if you have an old wooden hockey stick find it.
So since the rumor fun never ends, I am going to take the next 10 Fridays and give you all, the GMs and Hockey Buzzards, the opportunity to pitch YOUR team to the the top ten Unrestricted Free Agents To Be…AKA: UFA2B
I will pick the best pitch, post it, and then announce who gets him! The pitch has to be reasonable of course, and if you don’t have the cap space, it would help to explain your idea on how you will get that cap space..
We are read by many people out there, and many players, do make it SO!
This week’s player is coming off his best season by far and at times this season has even been mentioned in the same breath as the Hart Trophy…
Today’s UFA2B to be woo’d:
The lovely and charming Nazem Kadri.
He brings scoring, grit, sandpaper, speed…along with possible lengthy suspensions at the most in opportune times… This much is tru..But he definitely is a game changer..
So make your pitch…Who wants him?
