Confirmed with Link: Demers Signs for 2 Years, 3.4 AAV

Actually now that I think about it, if you are going separate Braun from Vlasic, it may be ideal to put Irwin with Vlasic.

But they're both lefties.

Oh yeah, brain fart there...

Ok, than stick Irwin with Demers like I originally said.

Braun-Demers(25 mins)

I'd take all 3 of those d-corps.

I'm surprised the Ducks haven't landed a #2 or #3. That would put them up there with the other 3. The Bolts D should be pretty good, too. Rangers and Habs, maybe.

Ducks don't need to spend their young assets. Just let one of their many prospects develop into the #2 role.

Not on my reading list :-p

If only we had this defense last season.

I think the defense will be okay, though they could really use a Johnny Oduya level guy. Hopefully we can poach a cap casualty who is a good 4/5 who also provides a fit.

Vlasic-Burns
Kid/Irwin-Braun
Oduya-Demers
Hannan

Surprisingly, I am a bit more concerned about the forwards. With Havlat gone and Burns back to defense, our forward depth is much weaker than I had expected. Don't get me wrong, I wanted Havlat to go, though I am a bit miffed we aren't using the cap space for anything.

Hertl-Thornton-Pavelski, Marleau-Couture-Nieto, as a unit, lacks speed (obviously, the latter line is very fast). Pavelski-Wingels on the third line, was dynamite.

Kulokiv signed for 3 years/$4,333,333 AAV.

I'm not sure if he's a good comp to Demers but if close, then Jason's deal is good value.

I wish it was three years... not complaining about the cap hit, though.

Cats have more than enough money to burn
