Boucher
Theodore
Hedberg

Those would be the guys I wouldn't mind seeing. Chris Mason is still out there, but I'd rather go with Philco in goal before that guy.

We better not touch Bryz with a 10 foot pole.

You can forget the first two. Big money, big headaches.

This. Or same thing with Shaw.
- Ogilthorpe2


I'd rather see him agitating on the third line.

I missed it the first time, but Rosival signed for 2 years...

...anyone know the AAV?

- ArlingtonRob


I think we'd all like to know the answer to that.

Nothing on Kruger?

His agent perhaps waiting for an offer sheet?

Bowman waiting for UFAs to sort out before dealing with RFAs?

- StLBravesFan



3 better players than Kruger still out there without an offer sheet.

Me too. I think that's Shaw natural game and he already said the Hawks have told him that's pretty much his role here so I don't see him on Line 2 anytime soon barring injuries.

I don't think so. Stan will sign someone. Most likely in the next few days. The Hawks are in no rush it seems.
- NedsHead_88


BUt looking at who is left, the only guys I would want would be Thomas and maybe Theodore (not really high on him).

Very obvious with Nystrom and stalberg signing the Predators were looking to add speed to their plodding team.
- kwolf68


David Poile is a good GM, and he's remaking the Preds yet again.

The Preds will be very competitive next year, so we can all keep our Barry Trotz jokes close at hand....he'll be around for a few more years.

And I'm happy for Carter Hutton...he's taken the long road to the NHL. Great opportunity for the guy.

Hedberg??? Isn't he in a retirement community?

He isn't there, yet. He still has to win that job.

He's getting close enough. He was just bought out by the Devils a day or two ago. I think there's still something left in the tank. He had better numbers than Theodore or Boucher.

Mathieu Garon is still out there too.

I don't think it's too big of a concern. He's been qualified, so that worry is over with. I think the Kruger situation will work itself out.

Likely nothing crazy but glad to see both he and Zus re-signed. Lock up Kruger and if there's any money left a bottom 6 fwd and done.

I know it's not sexy but the core's in place so I'm sure most of us realized there wouldn't be any jaw dropping moments (for the Hawks anyway) today; and that's more than just ok.

Plus he is going to want more money then Emery signed for today with the Flyers. Not worth it at all

True...but the Preds signing him suggests they consider him legit. Of coarse, playing behind Rinne means he'll never see the ice with the big club...

...I see Milwaukee in his future.

Chet Pickard is available. Who in the heck is that? Nashville gave him 1.3 last year?

i think it's great that he bailed on his team, they traded him, and then went to the finals without him.
