Did we really expect to do anything? I know I didn't expect anything drastic at this point unless a trade was to be made
Yeh we're not getting anything maybe a 4th liner
Although, GMBM has worked well into the night with some other FA signings and trades
ahl players
I'm bored, so here's what a few minutes on google turns up about these guys.
Christian Thomas - 24 year old drafted 40th overall by the Rangers in 2010. Small, speedy winger with a 10-11-21 line in 34 AHL games and 3 points in 27 NHL games.
Darren Dietz - 22 year old drafted in the 5th round by the Canadiens in 2011. Supposedly a PMD, but only put up 16 points in 61 AHL games last season. Had 5 points in 13 games with the Habs this year.
Joe Cannata - 26 year old drafted in the 6th round in 2009. Posted a 2.52 GAA and a .909 sv% in 40 games in the AHL last season.
Thanks for this. Seems like good AHL moves for sure.
It seems like Russell is holding up the secondary D market and the eventual trade market for D.
I'm a bit surprised they went with Cannata with the likes of Scrivens, Lindback, Aittokallio and Leighton still available. The Dietz signing is decent enough and I take it he'll replace Burgdoerfer. Hershey could use a quality center for sure.
Forward options are quickly dwindling. Top nine options include: Hudler, Cullen, Versteeg, Tanguay, Gagner, Parenteau, Elias and Vrbata. Depth/PKer vets include Moore, Gaustad, Korpikoski and Kelly. Connolly likely makes Pirri a redundant option. Hard to say if they'd dip into the depth D pool or not. There might be some value there, though.
Boedker for 4 yrs and 4 mil/year is a STEAL. I'd rather have him than Mojo...
Who other than Justin Williams did the Caps sign at this time last year?
GMBM made just as big a splash if not bigger when he made the Oshie trade, which came out of no where. He still has time.

I thought Stanton was supposed to be the chosen 7
Sounds like he could be had for cheap based on the Switzerland comment. Hopefully the Caps agree and take action.

Sounds like he is gonna have a bidding war. Caps need to wait for his price to come down
