I thought Stalberg's wasn't too bad. He would have been a nice addition. Plus defense wise I read that Weber signed for only 650k and I think I saw Jeff Schultz signed for only 700k. I know Blum is still out there, hopefully they can grab him.

Im hopeful for this too, but wouldnt hold my breathe right now until McD, Steps, MZA, Hags and Falk are signed.

I thought Hendricks had a nice cap number, 1.8 even though 4 yrs. Stalberg's wasn't too bad. He would have been a nice addition. Plus defense wise I read that Weber signed for only 650k and I think I saw Jeff Schultz signed for only 700k. I know Blum is still out there, hopefully they can grab him.

Four year deal, almost worth two million dollars for a player that never scored ten goals in a full season?

Stallberg for three million per is also a sketchy deal, in my opinion. Rangers get a guy that is a similar player to any role player that got signed today and they got him on a one yer deal worth a million dollars. I think that is good shopping.

To me, Hendricks, unless you don't want to go four years. Remainder had too high of a cap hit, including Scuderi, Ference etc.

Would have loved Scuderi, very solid, Ference would have ok, and I liked Hendricks, but all those ships have sailed. We go forward from here.

I am sure it is, Johnson is a minor league defenseman.

I can't believe this is what he's come up with. Moore and Aaron Johnson. Again, not sh!tting on Moore.

Stats wise no, it doesn't look good I agree. I have seen some games with Hendricks and he reminds me of a Prust type though and was hoping some more grit would be added.

Yea I said at best 6th spot I don't understand why people think any of them would want to sign here when there is no place for them to play

Moore fine, its only 1 million and he'll do well I'm sure on the PK and the 4th line. But Aaron Johnson? I'm sure there is someone out there better than Aaron Johnson for a similar amount of money.

Why are you so concerned with a minor league defensemen? He's just a depth minor leaguer?

The type of moves made so far are what we all expected them to be. Maybe not who we had as our first choice, but the role and salaries were the driving factors.

Its not so much I'm concerned about Aaron Johnson. It was more that I would have thought at this point they would be concerned with more important things.

It's not like this prevents other things from happening though that's why I don't get the problem.

Yea definitely, it was pretty much going to be a snooze fest as far as big signings but I guess in my mind I thought it would be different depth players added than what has been added so far.
