Whoa!

Figured he'd get a lot on the open market. Guess he wants to stick around and help bring the Cup here which I'm cool with.

Yeah I had projected 5.5 for him and considered THAT a slight discount. This is massive.

Seeing the Korpisalo contract that Ottawa gave out, this is laughably team-friendly, but yet again, players who know what winning environments look like clearly want to stay in Carolina.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Great deal, think other teams were scared off by injuries which is honestly fair. With Raanta and Koochie we are certainly fine with that risk and he was great in the playoffs for us.

 

[MinJaBen]

We are going to have a lot of cap room…

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Good

Also nice to see guys actually want to play here. Esp in year 6 of RBA when try hard coaches tend to have a short shelf life

For real, I figured back in March or April the Sabres would overpay for him.

Crazy how this shook out.

Guys...what the hell. 3 good goaltenders signed to 7 mil combined. Solid for you guys but FML as I had all 3 goalies on my fantasy team last season. Was planning on using a keeper slot for Kochetkov....

Matt Duchene, come on down. Time to take a shot on a one year deal.


That or making room for the Lindholm trade and extension.

Karlsson?

 

[A Star is Burns]

Loving this shit so far.

 

[DaveG]

Karlsson?

I think Tony's coming either way so I can't see it. They could always prove me wrong though, every year they make a move nobody sees coming.

 

[Ole Gil]

This is a relief. I kind of hope Raanta is just here to hang out, and it's Anderson/Kotchetkov.

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

So is the plan to keep Kotchetkov in minors for 1 more year?

Then go with Andersen/Kotchetkov after this season?

That's the best guess. Kochetkov will still probably get around 20-30 starts this season as is

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

We like our team?

I think we likely get him a decent amount of starts in the league but give him about 20 starts in the AHL as well.

i get everyone loved Yzerman in Tampa but i think has done a pretty mediocre job in Detroit. His FA signings have been quite bad.

Dallas shaving cap. Debrincat going to dallas?
