NFT: NHL Free Agency - Discussion/Rumors

Sammo85 : 7/1/2016 7:46 am
Isles and Devils will probably be active. Should see some more trades too either today or next week once the dominoes settle.

Okposo, Nielsen rumored to be looking elsewhere. Isles supposedly looking at Andrew Ladd. Also some talk they might be willing to take Vanek back provided it's low risk and low term.

Devils need to bring in at least another forward and a defenseman. Some rumors they have checked in on Nielsen and also Matt Martin for a 4th line role too. Okposo and Eriksson probably too high for the Devils liking.

Do Rangers pull off a trade today? Still some Stepan rumblings out there with the Wild if they can't sign one of the forwards in free agency.

Will be interesting to see what Eric Staal does and where he goes.

Why would Florida make that offer with Luongo under contract for like 6 more seasons?
RE: Reimer  
pganut : 7/1/2016 11:59 am : link
My guess is PHI or PIT, especially if PIT ditches the Flower.
.  
arcarsenal : 7/1/2016 12:00 pm : link
I could see PHI.. not PIT, though. Even if Fleury leaves, Murray is the guy. They can get an ok backup for less term.

I just don't see Reimer as a starter..that said, you're right. Who gives 5 years to a backup.
ok...  
feelflows : 7/1/2016 12:03 pm : link
Ladd an Isles 7 years
Ericksson a Canuck 6 years
Lucic an Oiler
.  
arcarsenal : 7/1/2016 12:03 pm : link
So 7 years for Ladd w/ NYI.. Lucic getting 6 years from EDM? Eriksson 6 years with VAN.
and...  
feelflows : 7/1/2016 12:04 pm : link
Reimer a PANTHER

see? I'm not SO dumb!
Seven years for Ladd

Wow.. 5 years for a backup? I guess they think Lu is going to start breaking down. Good call, feels.
just over $5M

Well the Isles have employed a back up or the last 10 years.

So I was dead on with Ladd. 5.5/7

could be worse. I think if they tried for 4-5 yrs it would've cost 6.5 or more

Luongo is 37.. in goalie years, he's like 74. It's not a bad deal for them.
3.5M for a backup  
pjcas18 : 7/1/2016 12:09 pm : link
goalie isn't too bad. I wish MTL had a decent backup goalie.

Khudobin back to Boston.

I am going to say it's unlikely that Edmonton is battling for the #1 pick again in the 2017 draft. Neither will Buffalo.
.  
arcarsenal : 7/1/2016 12:09 pm : link
Lu is old but I bet he still has 2 quality years left in him. He was still very good this past season. I just don't see the point in giving term like that to a backup. Especially Reimer. Didn't they just trade for Berra too?

7/$42 for Lucic. I think EDM did well there.

Good, I like Backes, but he's old already.

Between Backes and Krug, hopefully that's a big dent in Boston's cap money and no defensive help.

and they lost Ericcson.

so basically if Price goes down again, the Habs are looking for the #1 pick in 2017.

That's an excellent deal for the Bolts. Hedman is so good.

Subban deal and Hedman is younger and probably better two-way than Subban.

Today. The championship caliber teams have players like chimera and Ladd on them. Isles were barely getting out of first round with the okposo and nielsens.
Wow  
Jay on the Island : 7/1/2016 1:35 pm : link
Lightning fans have to be ecstatic keeping Stamkos for less than anyone expected and now they lock up Hedman long term.
