Re: Free agent FRENZY thread. July 1, 2019

Panarin to the Rangers. That’s one heck of a rebuild going on, new #1 dman and new #1 winger along with a ton of prospects and a good cap situation means they will be contenders for years to come. To think it only took 5 years to gain a ton of assets and become a contender again. Amazing what can b...

Re: Free agent FRENZY thread. July 1, 2019

Nucks sign Oscar Fantenburg. There’s the depth D mentioned. He’s not waiver eligible so I assume it’s a Nucks signing not for Utica. Must be some trades to come because there are a ton of bodies both at forward and D. Gonna be a long summer. Ton of work to do. No rest for the wicked.. Agreed, thoug...

Re: Free agent FRENZY thread. July 1, 2019

Tanev (Brandon) to the Pens for either 5 or 6 years. Now that’s an awful contract regardless of the dollar amount, that much term is insane for a 3rd/4th liner.

Re: Free agent FRENZY thread. July 1, 2019

2 years, $2 million per for Benn. Very nice deal by Jimbo, even less money than I thought he would get. Suggested he plays real well, much better, on the right side. That was the selling point. Stecher wont be inundated with ice time now. He does play the right side more than the left, so we are le...

Re: 2019 offseason

Not a great contract, but not a horrible one either. The D is a bit better and I like the addition of Benn as a character bottom pairing guy. I don’t have a huge problem with either deal and I’m glad Elmer kept the term down. Yep, it’s a decent deal, no more no less despite the Jimbros acting like ...

Re: 2019 offseason

Supposedly it’s signing bonus heavy, meaning buyout proof. Yet another contract that we can’t get out of if it goes sideways. If it truly goes sideways, sure. But this reported signing is over years that should still be productive years for defensemen. Ages 29-33. All players are different, of cour...

Re: Free agent FRENZY thread. July 1, 2019

That's what I'm thinking - Benning will be a big player today. Next year's first is gone, so the core is set, the rebuild is over and it's Jim's "Black Friday" shopping frenzy. Gone if they make the playoffs, not gone if they don’t, which is an important distinction. If they make the playoffs the r...

Re: 2019 offseason

Sekera to Dallas on a 1 year term for $1.5 million with a potential for another $500k in bonuses. That’s a really nice deal for Dallas, they will be a very good team this year.
