Bertuzzi added.
TT for 2nd line, who could jump to 1st line if Hall gets hurt?

Great signing with Bertuzzi.

Skill and grit. He'll be nice on Bedard's wing

I don't mind the move. When Bertuzzi is healthy he's a decent player who brings some sandpaper and skill to the top 6.

Hopefully they are still looking to add another top 6/middle 6 fwd but if Hall and Bertuzzi can both stay healthy it should help them keep the puck in the opponents end a bit more.

Congratulations on winning the Cup! Ended up being a great series though I imagine you'd have preferred things hadn't got so interesting by going to 7 games.

Agreed, this is something the team needed to add and I think KD did great with this deal.

If or when but if he can bring in another top 6 forward and a decent RHD, I think you can say this was a successful off season.

I agree Zach, maybe a center and a RHD, and they don’t both have to come through free agency either.

Which would then allow the recent draftees more time to marinate. Then, if a lot of them hit, the 'Hawks will be cooking with fire.

I think they will. So far he's added Mikheyev and likely Bertuzzi which makes the bottom 6 and top 6 better.

Looks like KFC is trying to make good on his statement that a repeat of last season isn't acceptable and it's time to take a step.

I think him moving on yesterday from all the tweeters on last year's roster is possibly more evidence of that.

Maybe they go after Marchessault or Teuvo?
I'd throw 2 years 7mil at Marchesaault
Teuvo,I'd sign to a 3-4 year deal, similar to Bertuzzi

Bertuzzi with Hall and Bedard seems like a pretty solid line. I don't believe they'd be pinned in their own end like last season when it was Bedard/Kurashe /revolving door

Thus far, CapFriendly is still available and functioning. I thought it was going offline today?

Not a Bertuzzi fan. Maybe it's just the way he looks. LOL.

Hope he works out, but eventually he may be the board's new whipping boy.

Sometime in early July from what I heard. The sale agreement said it would stay available until the free agent season is winding down.

He has a ways to go to beat out Jones or Murphy. But if he becomes the new whipping boy so be it, we need a whipping boy.

Wow!
No way was Kyle going to give Guentzel that much term.
Probably would have had no problem with 9mil for two years

If so, we are looking at a radically improved NHL roster from last year.

And here's the caveat:

• Here are some educated guesses on what we could see Monday. Don’t take them as gospel, the rumour mill drank a case of Red Bull on the weekend.

I thought we had to wait till noon today before UFA´s not on your roster could be signed?
