GDT: 2019 Free Agent Frenzy - NON PENGUIN RELATED THREAD

I’m curious to what Gardiner will get, teams might be scared off by his back issues last season.

Why not...

Seems like open season for question marks this year.

Did someone finally find him a good home?

Ohhhhhh... bless their hearts!

No. I'm just laughing at that half-assed f***.

I hope more players speak out against poor management tactics and call out their/former teams. We might need that. The NHL might need that. Lou literally screwed up Mike Peluso's life

 

[Turin]

I’m shocked that the guy who wouldn’t let grown ass men wear beards or choose their number might be a jackass

Because he's a shit to play against and yet an amazing human being?

 

[Shady Machine]

Damn after all he went through and then was their rock this year, that's just some bizarre shit.

Yeah weird. Give him time to think it over. Give him a deadline to decide but at least communicate what’s going on.

“Hey we need answer or we are going a different direction”.

Instead he calls them to accept and they say sorry.

Guess there is always 2 sides but that’s the way Lehner portrayed it.

 

[Shady Machine]

Surprised Ferland didn't go early. If he ends up missing out on a big deal and signs for 4ishMM I am going to punch JR.

 

[JTG]

That deal for Toronto is huge. They are still completely f***ed, but at least they have 3 solid defensemen.

 

[End of Line]

Colorado wins that trade due to Kadri's contract.

Along with having Makar to fill Barrie’s shoes in the top 4.

I love Robin Lehner and Scott Darling. What can I say, I'm a sucker for people who fight through lots of nasty demons.

Good shoutout. I’ve emailed capfriendly a couple times and Dominik got back to me pretty quickly (mainly about if deals were possible or why certain deals had to go down the way they did with the cap).

 

[Tom Hanks]

Perry’s bonuses. Most should be attainable. @Honour Over Glory works out well for both parties.

 

[Gurglesons]

What is weird about that Isles thing is they gave Varlamov five years LOL

Apparently they only offered Lehner 2 years. Weird.

It is a pity he doesn't make money from it, it is a super great site. I'd definitely kick in some money if started a Patreon or such. Or maybe the NHL could bring him in house? (probably not as they don't like disclosing contract values).

He was probably the main reason we got sweep, so I'm happy that he is gone west and happy that he got some money too, fully deserved.

 

[Extra Texture]

Bjugstad for Lowry?
JJ/2nd for McCabe?

Is McCabe on the outs in Buffalo or something?

They are looking to move McCabe.

I don't think Ferland is going to drop his ask because he wasn't signed on Day 1 of FA. I'm still expecting something stupid for him.
