GDT: July 1 - Free Agent National Holiday

[RoadWarrior]

Most of these deals are panic moves designed to fill gaps in the lineup or prospect pool.

The only area of deficiency for the leafs is on D. Apparrently they're in on Wisniewski.

 

[HarrisonFord]

heart can't handle pressure with Russell still unsigned.

Dubas would choke Lou out before he could make that signing

 

[Trapper]

Their our biggest rebuild rival imo. But I think Okposo was a mistake.

Maybe not today but the potential for a lot of bad deals in 3/4/5 years.

 

[KGL]

And Matt Martin. Once those two are gone I'll be able to breath.

 

[ZINFINITY16]

Sooo happy we didn't offer any massive deals to free agents! But now that a lot has been spent I'md definitely be interested in seeing how much it may cost us to get Demers?

 

[WTFMAN99]

Dubas would choke Lou out before he could make that signing

Hope so lol.

 

[HeroNtF]

the russell bullet is still in the chamber though, i hope we dont lose on this russian roulette.

being from calgary flames fans loved him.. i cant stand his game and hes good at blocking shots and being stuck in the d zone.

 

[pspot]

And Matt Martin. Once those two are gone I'll be able to breath.

At the right term Martin would be a good add

 

[KGL]

Haha holy **** Edmonton signed Monster. He's soooooo bad. Oilers will be **** forever.

 

[KGL]

At the right term Martin would be a good add

Sure, but judging by what his rumoured ask is, I doubt he'd sign for a reasonable amount.

 

[saltming]

Dubas would choke Lou out before he could make that signing

That provided a great visual! Hahaha
Full mount, rear naked choke?

I wanted him but now I'm thinking he'll be 5x5, which may be too much.

He's actually a decent back up.. don't see nothing wrong with it.

It's an unfortunate set of circumstances....

 

[Leafidelity]

Ive enjoyed watching this from the outside, usually the Leafs are front and center on July 1st

 

[Stand Witness]

Do the Leafs make a signing or trade first?

I am surprised we haven't seen a trade yet.

 

[Macallan18]

At the right term Martin would be a good add

Sure no more than 1 game.

 

[KGL]

He's actually a decent back up.. don't see nothing wrong with it.

.908 last season, that's pretty awful. His highest sv% ever is .911. He's garbage, not even NHL level.

 

[Trapper]

Haha holy **** Edmonton signed Monster. He's soooooo bad. Oilers will be **** forever.

They had to do something. They other guy was horrible, instant 4 goal game.

DAL working hard to nail down a deal for defenceman Dan Hamhuis.

 

[LaPlante94]

Demers, Martin, Versteeg. Would be a pretty good free agency if we signed 1 or 2 to good contracts.

You'll never GM again!

Trades usually follow after the initial frenzy. Teams that lost out start to panic.
