Free agency time. As long as Jim goes in with the idea nothing more than 3 years we should be okay.

I think he will pick up 2 forwards . He may pick up a defender also. I have not heard of any contract talk mentioned about Jake or Sven . I don't know if they have been qualified ? Is today the last day?

If JB is true to his word he might not pick up anybody, he said it's time for the kids to show what they can do. I won't be surprised if he does nothing and I won't be surprised if he spends the whole 25 million.

He said two days ago they would get players in free agency.

I expect them to spend 10 mil on free agents

Here is an offer . Hawks desperate to get rid of Hossa contract 3x5.25. They also want cap space Anisimov has 3 years at 4.5 total savings 9.75

Anisimov has to give a list of 10 teams after July first. Solves our center problem

I personally did.'t even want to give up our 7 th for Hanifin never mind Hamilton. Sounds like a lot of locker room stuff going on over there
- VANTEL

I’m hearing a lot of stuff now that makes me wonder about him...the talent is there but if all the stuff that is being said is true than you have to move him.

It has to be bigger than that . You don't trade Hamilton who said he wants out with the player that is hated. Fox did not want to sign. There is a divided dressing room
- VANTEL

I think with fox it just comes down to no opportunity in cgy with guys like Andersson, valimaki, Kylington, and kulak ahead of him ...I wouldn’t be surprised if he goes to free agency now

I’ve never heard anything about Ferland being disliked by our locker room ...hated in yours maybe

Team really needs a stopgap second line center, but only until Pettersson is ready, maybe two years?

I think Manvan was making it up. I liked Ferland . I gave him a lot of respect how he destroyed the Canucks

I thought that was against NCAA rules? Does that mean a possible signing is close already?

As long as he pays his own way he's fine, same as Boeser did.

Gonna be interesting to see if he signs an NHL contract.

Ok fine you don’t want a 2nd line Center then

According to a TSN insider my cousin knows. Hes a "cocky poop" in the locker room. Rubs a lot of guys the wrong way.

You need crap ones that are vets to insulate the kids at center but have a contract that can be moved if the kids are more ready than you think

If not, and he’s in Utica for a bit, at least we don’t have to listen to the rumours he doesn’t want to sign in Vancouver

Canucks will need to be creative to find a 2nd line C. I don't like the idea of adding a guy like Beagle and giving Sutter more offensive opportunities but I expect that is what will happen.

Cody Eakin is an interesting guy, he is one of the few Vegas players that didn't have a good season and is coming off a couple disappointing seasons.
He is only two years removed from playing 2nd line in Dallas and could likely be had for cheap.

Rangers might be willing to move Hayes as they have some young centers they want to bring in but I think his cost will be high.

Perreault could be available if the Jets are trying to shed some cap. He's had some injury troubles but IMO has the talent to be in the top 6. Hasn't played much C since Anaheim though.

Boone Jenner or Sam Bennett would be more questionable projects and would likely cost Virtanen +.
