Because noone else in the world can solve cap problems? Sounds like a glorified calculator to me. Ill stick with JR.

nah but would you rather have a guy with A+ in math always or a guy with D in math always when you need a math genius?
I have no idea about their math grades. just giving an exampel

At 3.5 mil per year, I'd gladly take him over kunitz

Kunitz is done next year. I want neither and prefer the cap space. Although I would say Staal's deal is the only one that doesn't repulse me right now.

Have you seen him play....too slow for our system...best part of Kunitz is only 1 year left on his contract.

Maybe for just this 1 season... but he'd be just as big of a drain on us the following two

What if Murray continues to play lights out and the goalie market doesn't improve?

You do what you have to do. Prob get very little for him the same if they traded him now.

Sounds like Mikkel Boedker closing in on deal... Previously heard LA, MTL, ANA, NAS among interested teams, not sure if still in mix

Today DK reports(the guys that supposedly hate Pouliot) that Rutherford expects Pouliot to be a big part of the defense next year and he's getting every chance to play. This is the right move.

Best you can hope for in early UFA signings is a small overpay to fill a hole you don't think you can internally. Okposo and Brouwer I think will fit that. Backes sticks 9ut as a horrible deal to me.

I assumed over 2.5 mil a year... its Shero, he loves those Veterans

Couldn't agree more. I'm happy with what the old man has done today with the depth signings.

That's not bad for a RH #5 defenseman. Too bad we had no cap space. Nice to see him get paid.

If Cullen gets over 2 mil... I don't want him. Sorry, not sorry...


Half the reason I wanted him, is to trade him near the deadline, to Shero, for their 1st or two 2nds

Agreed. I'd move Fehr to 4c and send Sundqvist to WBS until injuries hit like always

I wouldn't have wanted him for anymore than 2 x 2. Good for Lover.

Agree on Cullen. 1 mil max.
