there's quite a few more interesting UFAs left available than in most other years.
some of these guys might be left without a job at start of season, and only sign with a team when a big injury comes up.

the outcome of hearings on RFAs will have some impact as well on signings/trades etc.

I doubt any of the "big names" left will be on the table once the season starts. Rarely happens.

Teams will let them sweat a bit, and sign them cheap before/during training camp.

I really hope that he isn't here when we reach August

- ILoveLamp



He'll be moved in December.




Hopefully.

apparently Oduya signed with someone. announcement at 11.

because he's such a big name, there needs to be an official announcement.

just curious... why were they a 100-point playoff team the year before last, when he wasn't even nominated for the Vezina? and why did they win the division the year before that when he posted a .905 save percentage and no one wanted him within 1000 miles of Sochi going into the next season?
- DoubleDown

I disagree everyone I knew wanted him to start and Fleury to back up.

2 yr deal for a 33 yr old... What manner of crazy ass GM'ing is this? It's almost as if they don't want to be paying him when he's too old to contribute.

That leaves Franson (Buffalo?) and Ehrhoff/Meszaros (Boston?).

he's so aggressive, but not in a foolish Brian Burke way. it's so rare to see that among GMs today.

Lehtonen to Niemi is enough of an upgrade to push them to 100 points. Lehtonen was pretty lousy.

Niemi's not exactly a great goalie either though.

Him and trivling however you spell it in Calg have been making decent moves... (frank)ing Burke in Toronto .probably learned his lesson

I am still not sure Dallas has the G figured out, that really killed them last season..oh and Daley sucks

i agree he's not great but he's an upgrade over Lehtonen. Lehtonene gave them brutal goaltending last year and i think Niemi will give them mediocre goaltending.
