GongShow's Free Agent Game!
- Thread starter Burlington Bomb 26

The Devils will listen to offers for Brian Gionta. We would like to make a lateral move for a top-six center.
So you signed him just so you can trade him...

I had the intention of keeping him, but looking at the fact that I may have Nicklas Bergfors spending yet another season in the minors, I will see what I could get.

Confirmed.
Steen didn't have a spot on the Blues roster and we wish Gaborik luck in free agency.

I call that smart management.
Sign UFA and trade them after.

I did not sign Campbell to that contract. The something else was a backup goalie.
It's not bad value at all.

I know, just mention you to tease you a little.
Don't think Boyle was sign by the owners that traded him (could be wrong) but it was still cheap to trade a UFA recently sign for a (close to) premium return.
Well Detroit GM had no problem with it since he said nothing when I announced that I wanted him as an assistant coach on thursday.
Anyway, if Chelios decide to continue his career somewhere, I'll make the change.

Georges Laraque is definitely available for the best 2010 draft pick possible. With the discussions we had yesterday, we are confident to be able to trade him today.
Jaroslav Halak and Chris Higgins will likely stay with the team unless we get the offer we want. We are looking for a top prospect d-man for Halak and a 2nd line playmaking RW for Higgins.
We will also listen to other offers and we will move if it makes sense for our team.
I'll be back around 3:30PM ET.
PM!
^^^^^^^^^^
I'll be around all night long. PM if you want to discuss trades.
Press Conference
As the GM of the Montreal Canadiens, I'm proud of what we did so far. With the new ownership and all our key players under contract for the next few years, we will be able to keep the focus on hockey during the next season.
With Martin St-Louis, we got the "best player available" at the draft. He will be an incredible asset to our team since he is such a complete player. With recently acquired Shawn Horcoff and Alex Tanguay, we seriously think that we have one of the best 1st line in the NHL. We are really high on Horcoff and he is a player we follow since his beginning in the league.
Brendan Witt and Scottie Upshall will also add a lot to our team. Witt will play with Andrei Markov and Upshall will complete a line with Maxim Lapierre and Guillaume Latendresse.
We will look around when Free agency will start but don't expect a big signing. We already made our big moves of the offseason. We are still looking to make our team better but we are more looking to discuss trades than talk with free agents.

I could be wrong but I think that Randy Jones was on waivers earlier in this game. So, basically, it's Trent Hunter and Radek Martinek for a 3rd round pick.
Awesome trade by the Flyers!
The Montreal Canadiens made some last minute RFA signings.
Shawn Belle, Olivier Latendresse and Loic Lacasse will all be back for one year on a two-way contract. Belle signed for 660,000$, while Latendresse and Lacasse both signed for 522,500$.
Backstrom #19
Trotz for president
Washington Capitals are still looking for a 2nd/3rd line center. I'm willing to give up a lot. PM me.
Just a reminder. At 5:00 ET you can begin to submit your offers for all UFA's. Make sure to watch your cap and team needs. Once 5:00 comes all posts should be made in the second thread, regardless of whether it's a signing, trade, waiver move, etc.
Well everything. Basically this thread is "locked" and we continue everything in the second thread. Everything you would do in this thread just continue doing in the 2nd thread.
Also, to everyone, READ THE FIRST FEW POSTS in the 2nd thread. There is important information there that you NEED to know.

Wishart sucks
Carle is an enigma, but could become a good #3 d-man, and the 26th pick was a good return for one of the leagues top 10 d-men. Good value considering they would have gotten nothing, but I believe we one that trade by a bigger margin than the Thornton trade.

Who do I send an offer sheet to.
And what is the compensation.
I am assuming the player is qualified but if he isn't that is just fine.
