All solid signings & good term & $$$'s.

In goal will look to be a tandem rotation.
Anything that can help the PP is a bonus.
Prolly see 4 F & 1 D on it & hope its never Tanev again lol

All the free agents in the world won't amount to a hill of beans if they play the same style.

The luckiest player today was Dominic Moore. He went from hockey scrub to future HHOF player in one day.

I like the signings today because the players are all young and fit the rebuild plan. Nice work, JB.

Do we have too many centres now? Deal Sutter or see if he can channel Justin Smoak and reach his potential 8 or so years into his career...

Green has his own systems and JB has added speed and skill that will help that work. So it won't be the same style. Even Sedins style adapt to changes. They may have a new winger too. Sounds like Gagner being a right shot may be an option to play with them. It's all stop gap of course. But gives less pressure on prospects. Helps their development and earn their time in increments.

I say not a chance. We need to learn from the LE 6x6 mistake last year and focus on 20 somethings, not over the hill has beens (18 goals = 7 mil?)

Just some stopgap players until their kids are ready or their future first overall kid is ready.

What's his deal, why the hatred towards the Nucks? I guess maybe just because he's an Ontario kid, kinda like us hating the Laughs.

He has this schtick to be angry. It is like he is sitting on an over sized butt plug during every broadcast

Love all of the signings. Really think JB got good value on contracts and term. I bit much on Nilsson maybe, but we still have some cap flexibility. Bo's contract might make this the best offseason the nucks have had since...? It's already a huge success imo
