If they were going to hire someone from Antigonish, they should have hired Brophy back. lol

Only problem is he's been dead for over four years. The smell would be much worse than hockey equipment smell

I suspect that a few of the cash-strapped teams will do nothing in the early days of free agency - just sit and wait.

No point in signing guys before you know what next season will look like.

If you aren't a contender, it's probably better to just keep your powder dry.

Is the buy-out frenzy going to be busier than the free-agent frenzy? I wonder how many offer sheets Ek is predicting?

If an RFA doesn’t get a Qualifying Offer are they a full Free Agent?

I’ve been wondering how to take advantage of possibility that lots of RFAs might not get QOs. Offer sheets, threats of offer sheets and do deals, or just till market gets flooded.

Makes sense to go after specific players for key spots like goalie and wait it out for fillers.

Dallas stars and buy- out frenzy.

Lundqvist, Abdelkader and DeKeyser all to be bought out - how exciting.

Don't have to rush signing goalies or bottom six forwards.

Not a bad start.
Heard that Snakes is the next on that list; they say he's a locker-room cancer and the ONLY reason the Leafs doesn't hoist the Cup this season.

Jt will be ok, Lundqvist gets bought out and Learfs sign him for 2 yrs x $2 million, pick up Brendan Dillion for $2.5 million AAV and kick ass and take names. Trade Freddy for a couple of seconds and pick up Shakir Mukhamadullin with one of them.

Is any goalie the Leafs get really that much better than Freddy is? Like say Matt Murray for example? Kuemper gets hurt quite a bit. Goalies are so up and down. It's an inexact science forecasting how good or bad they'll play from one season to the next. Look at Binnington. He wins the Cup. Gets a big contract extension and then poops the bed in the playoffs.

Top names should get reasonably well paid, 2nd pair guys will probably suffer. Sorry Shattenkirk, sorry Barrie. Forwards will be a sh!tshow. It's a good thing Bergevin signed all the d-men he needs ( Alzner not getting bought out !)

Perfect illustration why Freddie has to go. And this stat doesn't even include the beachball per game that Freddie allows throught the five hole

One bit of good news, I'm getting less calls to buy imaginary duct cleaning services, from India.
