And ... the Ghost signing just went up on CapsFriendly. 3 years, $3.2 mil AAV

Wonder what that means for the Walker rumors.

No one is going to be talking about the Canes unbelievably deep and solid D this coming season.

Capfriendly has Sean Walker on the Canes roster but with no contract details.

 

[jeffbear]

Good. I'd rather have Walker in the mix than not. And 3rd pairing D is something you can fix whenever.

LeBruns says Walker is done, 5 years, $3.6 million AAV

Well stated! Like a man trading in his sports car for a used minivan with the seat cracks filled with Cheerios and Goldfish…

This off season and draft really highlights how this league does NOT need to expand.

 

[bagopux]

We have $10.3M in cap space to divvy up to Necas, Jarvis, Drury and Couglan.

Just look at what basically every over-30 defenseman who "hits somebody" got paid today. Two thirds of those guys don't belong in the league.

Those numbers aren't numbering.

Jarvis and Drury will eat all of that up.

 

[HeyKurtz]

Jarvis and Drury will eat all of that up.

They're also wrong. See cmal's post in the other thread.

 

[cmaleski2]

Jarvis and Drury will eat all of that up.

We have more space than that, its really $14.625ish once you get the kids with 2 ways assigned to Chicago and bury Spencer Martin (or lose him to waivers).

You can take Ken Holland out of the front office, but making rash decisions on flawed players who offer the hope of goals is deep within that team's DNA.

Goals are exciting. Therefore Skinner is exciting... he will lead to lots of scoring.


never said which team

Jeff Skinner signed with Edmonton, 1 year, $3 million

Prediction: Skinner is gonna blow out his Achilles in Game 82 and miss the playoffs again.

that's evil

Yeah. As much grief as I give the guy, I'm rooting for Skinner to finally make the playoffs.

 

[andyt]

Victor Hedman signs an extension with Tampa, 4 years, $8 million. It’s a modest increase from his current deal at $7.88 million.

Slugs sign old friend James Reimer to a 1 year, 2 way deal at $1 million. It’s below the buried threshold.

 

[TheBigKahuna]

Jeff Skinner signed with Edmonton, 1 year, $3 million

He finally makes the playoffs. Maybe.

 

[NoMich]

Damn Edmonton! You figured it out! Y'all were just an overpaid Jeff Skinner away from that elusive Cup! Plan the parade now.
