The fun is about to begin folks...

Surprise moves anyone?

- Stripes77



After Ville Leino it's hard for me to classify anything on July 1 a "surprise"



That being said, I think the blues will surprise. too many disappointing playoff runs not to.

The good thing is we have $19.2M in cap space so expect some deals today or tomnorrow.
- mhp


More concerned with what contracts will mean in future years. 19.2 can be filled up, but unfortunately that could mean 5-6 years also.

Not a lot comes off next year really, "only" 6 million from Legwand and McGinn, then the rest are sub-2M for the most part.

We'll see with the Green prediction, as I don't see that happening. He's been right before and wrong before (Babcock)

I was really excited about Ehrhoff. Ville Leino left me puzzled at best. Way too much money for some clown with one year of >60 points.

Need to have some space in 3 years for Ike and company.

Technically he was right about that as well. Most people in the organization really believed he was signing with them.

It's UFA day.

They're all 3.5-4 guys any other time of year but the next few days.

Yes. Supply and demand. Short sale. It's like an auction.

I'm not here to give any passes, but 39 did say it was a 95% possibility. And all but done.

Murray even admitted he thought Babcock was coming here. Which means, they were damn close.

His Evander Kane deal was almost spot on. The actual deal had a minor tweak, I think a 2nd turned into a 1st. That's it.

No one could have pulled that out of their ass without prior knowledge.

His shooting percentage tripled this year. His assists still remained on par.

That means when he settles to normal, he won't be exceeding 20 points, and whichever team gives him $250,000 per point is (frank)ing dumb.
