He'll sign somewhere in the Nhl, sometime soon. Good update.

Log jam in Cowtown. Poor showing in Dallas. Maybe NJ or the Yotes.

I already feel sorry for the team that signs him.

No way Phoenix and their analytics-focused GM touches the disaster that is Kris Russel with someone else's 10-foot pole.

Not if Smid is LTIR. Russell obviously doesn't have the marketability he was hoping for and Calgary wanted to sign him at what the Flames thought was the right price. $3millionish with some term and it's a done deal.

EK always names a half dozen teams to make the odds of him getting one right easier.

I was unaware that Kris Russell warranted terms like "saga". You want a saga, try getting my 3 YO down for a nap.

This is all tied to Joe Thornton having a great SCF.

The Flames aren't signing anyone before they sign Gaudreau.
Not only do we not have 2 mil in cap, but we already have a logjam on defence: Wideman, Smid, Nakladal, Engelland, I put them all in a similar category as sub-par.

Nakladal isn't on the team and Smid is likely LTIR.

Sens should be all over that.

I loved him in Calgary. He was also a teammates of Methot I think with the Bluejackets. Why do I get the feeling he'll only get 1-2 years. I'd give him 2 years @2.5m.

Methot - Karlsson
Phanuef - Ceci
Russell - Wideman
