Who's gonna sign? where? who's gonna have to sign super cheap? who's gonna end up retiring? not finding job?

Your predictions.....

PS cant believe that Vermette is still available, super strong on faceoffs, can kill penalties, still a little bit of offense for a 4th liner.....

Enstrom must be asking for too much term and or too much money. There must be a handful of teams interested in him as a bottom pairing guy.

Vermette- New York Rangers
Enstrom- Montreal Canadiens
Alex Chiasson- Detroit Red wings
And I have no idea who's left

Talk out of Wpg was that he wanted to go back to Sweden. Not sure if that's been confirmed or invalidated though. He wasn't happy being benched in the playoffs, not that that has any bearing on him playing for 30 other teams now, unless he's asking for a bigger role than teams are willing ot give him along with the term/dollars.

I d think Wingels and Winnik still have the quality to play 4th line grinder in the league. Minimum contracts of course.

I really hope Josh Gorges finds a place to play. I know at this point in his career he’s not more than a 6/7 type at best.

But I just really felt for the guy watching his post game interview the last game of the season. He’s such an all in, team first, heart on his sleeve type of player. It’d just be nice if he could go out on better terms than buffalo’s brutal last place season.

Here’s the interview. Watch it and tell me you don’t feel for the guy...

Mark Letestu stands out on that list. He must be asking for too much because surely teams would be interested in him.

I see bieksa and Jokinen getting signed soon. Ones a shootout specialist and the other has a toughness to his game and is still good enough to be a bottom pairing defender. Both solid vets.

He said in an interview that he still wants to play in the NHL. But if he doesn't get a contract and goes back to Sweden, Modo is the only club he will play for.

Nash will probably hold out until Februrary and then jump on board with a contender with a 1 year deal. This is if he decides to play again this year.

Most are done . Gone to Europe or retire. At this point only a few get cheap 1 yr deals

Surprised Mason and Lehtonen haven't been signed. Think they'd be an upgrade on a lot of backup goalies out there.

Mason was hurt a lot last year. He’s getting paid so I imagine he waits till he finds a good situation. Jets should of just kept him honestly. They have the space and an unproven backup

Lehtonen May take more money overseas
