I wonder how much Filipulla is going to get.

Wouldn't he have been a better option than Brière?

Bozak got more than Desharnais.

(frank)ing LOVE that the Leafs crushed his spirit but gave in and gave him $1M more over the 5 years than what they wanted so he could he could save some face

Would have loved to be in his head when he realized no one wants a (frank)ing $5.5M player who has never scored 50 points

Ok, sign him, but first the habs need to trade everyone taller then 5'11, if the Bergy is going to use the ice hockey formula he might aswell go all out.

Stalberg 3M/yr, 4yrs. Nashville.

Between Stalberg @ 3M and Bozak @ 4.2... I know Bozak is a center but still.

$100k for an assist? I'm sure I could rack up a few second-assists.

Well he got less than what some anticipated.

But that's alooooot of money for a player who's best season is 46 points.

AND FOR A GOD DAMN LONG TIME!

crazy. guy averages just under 19 goals for every 82 games and gets a contract like that. this league is starved for power forwards.

Realistically with Bolland on board the Leafs had to have one of Bozak or Grabby.

Bozak at 4.25 is the better deal.
Kessel
Lupul
JVR
Clarkson

Pretty good top 6 wingers. If Kadri can be a 65 point center the Leafs have a very solid top 6.
