I would look to move Streit first and keep MacDonald.

Agreed.

I was just going over the cap recapture chart and it is brutal. There's no more cap recapture on new contracts, right?

It's for contracts entered into before or on Sept 15, 2012

Fair enough.....you can't blame me for asking.....

Wow again RT @SWhyno: #TBLightning to buy out Sam Gagner as long as he clears waivers, team said in a tweet that was then deleted.

What time July 1st can UFA signings be finalized/announced.

A real good guy, too. My all-time favorite hockey writer.

I think the guy had to eat and maybe didnt have a choice of staying here- not sure.
there was a time he was out of out work after that.

Why is Gagner's buyout so much cheaper despite similar contract terms?

interesting data breakdown of shots/goals/situations/shot types etc of quick vs. csp in the scf. more detailed than i've ever seen before. thought you fancy state types might like a look.

i'm sure he didn't go to the rangers because he wanted to, and assuming that's the case, it's a sad state when a guy of his caliber is forced into that situation.

speaking of teddy purcell, why do i feel like he's a guy that's routinely torched us in recent years with the bolts? if so, i'm glad he's gone.

Flyers are like 1-7 in their last 8 games against the Lightning, so it's probably true.

I never understood the Gagner hype. Sort of a meh player, IMO. For his skill level, he just seems average. I'm glad Purcell is gone, anything to change that mix up that constantly has killed the Flyers.

Man this could turn out to be one heck of a UFA period.... Lets (frank)ing do this!

Age. Gagner is bought out at 1/3, Purcell at 2/3.

He, Sergei Kostitsyn and Pat Kane were incredible together in London... that junior hype tends to stick for a long time, especially up north.
