The Offseason Extravaganza: Part I

[Roomba With a Bauer]

Just because it isn't announced by 5 doesn't mean it's not happening. Trades are announced beyond 3pm on deadline day all the time. If Holland buys him out at 4:55 you likely won't hear official confirmation until 5:10 or 5:15 is not later.

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

I am happy its happening if it is. Still have my doubts since we here about it fifteen minutes before the deadline.

 

[ArGarBarGar]

Happy and sad this happened.

Really held out hope Weiss could be a 2C here.

 

[Hammettf2b]

Clears up space for what exactly????

 

[Syckle78]

If this happens it has to be because something else is in the works. Welcome to Detroit,Dion. Fml...

Agreed, something is up tomorrow.

Edit.. well not necessarily agreed about Dion, but something big.

 

[Electric Eric]

Weiss to Boston?

No wait Weiss to Pitts?

They would have tried to swap salaries for Phaneuf. This is clearly so they can pursue free agents.

I was all for giving Weiss another shot but if Kenny actually plans on using this capspace for anything of value I will be ecstatic.

 

[Electric Eric]

And BOOM there it is.

Dan Cleary 6mln per year contract.

Basing it on my guess weiss wouldn't waive to go to Toronto. I'm just guessing at stuff but that's my theory.

 

[Roomba With a Bauer]

I am going to laugh so hard when our only signing between now and July 5th is our own RFAs and DFC.

 

[Shaman464]

So does this make Weiss another failure for KH?

 

[jkutswings]

Dan Cleary 6mln per year contract.

You evil, wicked person!

Free agent market is pretty much garbage. That wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

 

[PelagicJoe]

Dan Cleary 6mln per year contract.

F that noise.

 

[ScottyBowman]

Another KH mistake UFA but so happy he's gone.

 

[TheRatPoisoner]

Clearly

 

[Roomba With a Bauer]

F that noise.

Notice it said 6min per year, not mil.

The min will be his playing time. His contract will be for 2.5 million.

 

[Boomhower]

Saad traded to CBJ just now. July 1 starting early

Actually it said mln with L in the middle. It is the shortcut for million in my language so that's how it happened.

6 minutes of Cleary would be 6 minutes too long.

 

[Electric Eric]

Sooooo

Now what? UFA signing? Trade?

Any tinfoil hat theories?
