The fact that there was no answer to this question in the past hour and a half demonstrates why I'm not excited for today.
We really haven't signed many UFA FA's here over the years to that kind of amount. The answer is probably Foote.
Wiz was the last guy to sign that kind of deal with us. The rest of been our own UFA's or RFA's.
Horton is a whole level of player that we've haven't tried to sign to be honest. I'm trying to remember the last forward with 30 goal skill that we've tried to sign in FA.
Howson went after Redden and ended up with Commie. Beyond that, Howson was rather modest in the FA market. Foote and Wiz are the two most premier FA's we went after and honestly Wiz has been ok when he's in the lineup.
I guess what I am trying to say is look at other teams and see what kind of luck they've had. Horton is uncharted territory for this franchise. I can't think of one UFA that we've signed that is as prominent as him. Wiz and Foote are the closest I can remember.
