GDT: Fall Free Agent Frenzy

[TehDoak]

They lost Greiss.

Seems like a cheap insurance policy in case Sorokin isn't NHL ready.

Lou had him in NJ, so that is a piece of it, too.

Now if Mitch Korn can do his magic and get him back to his pre-hip injury self...

That's a nice deal for the Habs.

That's a nice deal for the Habs.

Committing 7 years to Anderson is a dubious gamble but the Habs have a nice team.

It's crazy that a few years ago they had zero center depth and now they have so many they had to trade one away.

 

[BloFan4Life]

That's a nice deal for the Habs.

I think it's a pretty fair deal. At the end of the day, he is a 40 point player. 4 years is a long commitment at that price tag, where it looks like finances are getting worse, not better.

I think Toffoli is benefiting more from his name than actual production. Nice player, just don't know if I want him at 4 million, 4 years from now.

 

[1TuchAnd1NoTuch]

Wow great deal for the Habs, would've loved that if we had the cap space

 

[Deevo]

I love that contract for the Habs

 

[Paxon]

That's a nice deal for the Habs.

I like it for them for sure.

 

[Fjordy]

Good deal for Montreal

Toffoli does sound like a tasty food. Subconsciously you're drawn to it.

[JThorne]

Exactly, and Ralph said he didn't want Larsson back.

I missed this. Did he really?

 

[joshjull]

After signing with Yotes, Larsson said the Sabres weren’t really interested in bringing him back.

 

[Fjordy]

After signing with Yotes, Larsson said the Sabres weren’t really interested in bringing him back.

He said that there was intereset, but not too big, apparently there were some reasons for this and I definitely won't blame Adams, because he let Larsson go, he is putting together a team for Krueger, not for himself.

 

[Paxon]

Listening to Krueger this morning talking about the team style (briefly) I buy the rationalization that they wanted someone with more speed to attack the puck, like Eakin and Rieder. I'd still take Larsson over Eakin easily but if that's their reasoning at least they have a vision.

 

[brian_griffin]

If they’re building for speed (a good thing), at some point they also need to unleash the d-men...

Let’s keep our hope up.

Everyone talks about the spaghetti parm, but the toffoli at Chefs is out of this world.

 

[Chainshot]

That is a nice deal for Montreal to get Toffoli.

 

[La Cosa Nostra]

If it comes down to Hutton as the backup I would take Ryan Miller back over him in a heartbeat. Give him 25-30 games see him get #400 as a Sabre.

 

[Rowley Birkin]

I've said it before but I think Hutton is either going to rebound after correcting his vision or he's going to be out of the league. No in between.

Potential goalies shouldn't be measured against Hutton performances from last year.

I do get the sentiment with Miller though.

How the heck did this guy put up 60 points one season, and then 29, 16, and 14 the other 3.

Was that the year Panarin and Kane were playing together? I’m not sure lol, but ya it’s wild.
