Simmonds to Toronto for $1.5 mil.

Free great asset. Top six player. Who claims him? Ottawa with all their change this offseason?
- ikeane

Ottawa would make a lot of sense, they need to ice some better players and they have lots of cap space.

Decent deal for the Wings, I think Ryan has some hockey left in him (just not near his peak levels).

Maroon and Schenectady staying with Tampa. Deals are less than $1 million each.

If he has anything left he maybe good for the young guys and snag a draft pick at the TDL

Buffalo another option

- oldduffman

That would be a "win now" move - I hope they don't give him a passing thought.

Motte re-signs with Vancouver for 2 years.

Merrill to Wings

No to Clifford lets stay path with young players. Like to see a bottom 6 forward with speed and solid pk player and big physical forward .

Ya big physical forward = Clifford

Carter Verhaeghe to Panthers

Still think Lakinnen will be the starter and will beat the other two out.

Got to get a nick name for him, can't spell his name, OK, going forward he will be Lakes.

Already gave you one a page or so back...Lanky.

To what end? Will we need a Clifford type player in a couple years when we're hopefully in a position to compete for the Cup? Yes, but what we need now is to get the young players playing to sort out the keepers from the others and to get those players game experience.

Yea i was thinking younger version of Clifford

If Toronto who wants to get bigger doesn't want Clifford, and signed Simmonds instead, why should the Hawks take him?

Ya I get it . just a though .

I know a few Leafs fans who did not want him gone . I am all in on play the Kids.

So when does the first goalie domino fall?

I agree but isn't this his third team already? Maybe he has work ethic issues?
- golfbard

Wow POC. and work issue come up...ouch!

More like he was never that great a prospect good athlete and a great third goalie ...
