Yeah. 1 extra year $750k more per season. Thats not a bad deal for Washington. I heard the Lightning were offering 7yrs $7M AAV. I guess that was wrong.

Nill just announced Dallas signed Patrick Eaves to a one-year deal.

Did Dallas just write a bunch of blank checks and say "Let's go get some forwards!"

They may look to deal Green

Good luck

Yawn... Not used to these types of FA days. The other way wasn't working, let's see what happens this way.

I'm mildly disappointed that no one threw stupid money at Dan Carcillo.

The first time in years there's been a challenge to the Flyers supremecy in that category.

Would be thrilled if he ended up in the AHL

Bold pre-emotive moves are a two edge sword aren't they?

About 3 or 4 good deals for the day. Problem is 3 of them IMHO are rivals (wash, pit and ny). I know a lot of folks don't like the Boyle deal but for only two years I think it is pretty safe.

He would generate interest. I don't think the Caps would be expecting a huge haul for him.
