#Isles sign Jared Coreau.

Nobody tell ses that BPT needed a goalie


I'm sick of all these little moves I want huge blockbusters

We all do, but life still goes on without them and other things need to be addressed as well

Thats a good deal for team, Ferland has the ability to score almost 20g if used properly. Plus can throw the gloves

It's a deal, not sure if I'd call it "good"...but it's not bad either. He's got injury issues and I'm not particularly sure that his body will stand the test of time over a 4 year deal.

Lee, easily. Those two get hurt and are likely to miss plenty of games. Anders is a rock.

That said, Johansson at $4.5M AAV on a two year deal is something I can't figure out why we didn't do, assuming he didn't totally rule out the Isles of course.

Or maybe it's because Trotz knows his game so well that Lou didn't try to get him. In other words, maybe Trotz knows about flaws in his game that are not obvious to us casual observers???

Ben, or anyone here

Do you think that teams arent quick to go after russian khl players due to them maybe wanting to go back if it doesn't work here?

Example if gusev is not doing well and gets put on the 4th line then wants to dip back to russia instead of going to AHL??

Example Jan kovar

I can’t imagine how he wanted to go to beautiful buffalo instead of the island. Wanted him at the trade deadline and would’ve definitely taken him now. Would’ve been a good fit and he was money in the playoffs.
