[McDonald19]

6. Torey Krug: Anaheim
14. Sami Vatanen: Anaheim

Both would be nice, but unfortunately the Ducks don’t have much cap space.

 

[cwede]

i could see a couple of Wennberg, Haula, Kahun, (or D.Simon) landing w NYR on 1-3 year, medium Cap Hit deals

Krug isn't signing in Anaheim he going home to Detroit. Anaheim is pretty set at LD and doubt they could afford a $8 million Krug,

 

[Deadly Dogma]

With some teams having an internal cap, is there enough room for all these UFA's to get deals? or are we going to see some good players go unsigned.

[Djp]

Anything announced by 1230 will have tampering written all over it.

 

[Emell]

Anything announced by 1230 will have tampering written all over it.

Why are people whining about tampering suddenly when behind closed doors stuff like that has been basically an open secret for decades?

 

[vanarchy]

Why are people whining about tampering suddenly when behind closed doors stuff like that has been basically an open secret for decades?

This year it rings particularly true with the loss of the typical negotiating period, though. Not going to be much of a "frenzy".

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Very curious how many actually sign tomorrow...

 

[Kranix]

Carl Soderberg: The Decision.

 

[Jets]

Dominik Kahun - WPG
Travis Hamonic - WPG
Paul Stastny - Traded to WPG

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

Can't wait for a shady deal between Detroit and Tampa Bay

 

[Ledge And Dairy]

Honestly we probably don't see that many UFA signing tomorrow, maybe 2-3. This offseason is so different from previous ones since so my teams are navigating on such a narrow line

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Jets are for sure taking one of Tanev/Hamonic/Stetcher and some budget bottom-6 booster. Maybe Vatanen if we're rich. Depending on how much VGK or TBL are panicking, a 2C trade could get done tomorrow as well to free up their cap.

 

[FreeMcdavid]

Canucks: Barrie, Markstrom, top 6 cheap RW

Stecher- Leafs

Tanev- Jets

Pietrangelo- Vegas

Hall- Avs

Crawford- Edmonton

 

[threeVo]

Lundy - Caps

 

[chamber99]

It is hard to call anybody oùt for tampering when the players technically become free agents at 12:01 am and cant sign till 12:00 pm. They have a 12 hour period to discuss the fine details.
