Jake Bean was a hot prospect for a while. Haven't heard much from him since he made the show. Probably a good move for CBJ to get a young guy with some upside to slide into some of the minutes they just traded to Chicago.
That seems like a lot of money. Didn't they learn anything from their last big contracts?
Hell of a deal for Columbus. Boqvist is a good player who’s only going to get better. Plus the picks. What a deal.
Yep…..guessing he actually took “less” to keep it to 6 years and hit UFA at 28. Sounds crazy to say he took a discount, but given the Heiskanen and Jones contracts, I think he did!Dave's a mess wrote: Sat Jul 24, 2021 9:49 am
He set himself up nicely for a second big payday in 6 years.
Why from CBJ view? Atkinson is the better goal scorer, has the speed. Wish we got him.
Color me uninspired...Dougie Hamilton: New Jersey
David Savard: Montreal
Gabriel Landeskog: not hugely confident in this prediction, but he and Colorado find a way
Blake Coleman: the prediction is, he gets 6×5
Jaden Schwartz: Seattle, basically done during the Kraken’s exclusive window
Brandon Saad: St. Louis, Islanders, Pittsburgh or Los Angeles
Kyle Palmieri: haven’t heard a thing, which means the Islanders probably have him locked up
Phillip Danault: Los Angeles takes a surprise look
Alec Martinez: stays in Vegas
Alex Goligoski: Minnesota
Derek Forbort: Boston
Zach Hyman: Edmonton. Makes me feel I’m getting one right
Alexander Ovechkin: 3×10 to stay in Washington
Ryan Suter: Dallas
Florida: locks up Sam Bennett, Sam Reinhart and Carter Verhaeghe.
Trades…
Ryan Strome: Seattle, Vegas or Ottawa.
Vladimir Tarasenko: Islanders or New Jersey. I think both those teams add something

Assuming that's the "big" FA signing, I'd expect they'll bring back Bozak on the cheap.BillP. wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:07 amThanks for list.usmcaaron wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 8:30 am Elliott Friedman predictions this morn:

Will Blues fans be happy with Sadd?
I thought he'd be a great fit here a few weeks ago. Speed and scoring on the left side sounds good to me, I think it makes a lot of sense. The return on that Tarasenko deal will be interesting. Schwartz heading to Seattle has been rumored for a while. He probably has a couple good years left, but we got his best years. Thanks for carrying the team the first half of the 2019 playoff run.BillP. wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:07 amThanks for list.usmcaaron wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 8:30 am Elliott Friedman predictions this morn:

That's pretty decent. Especially if he really has turned the corner. He was a world beater for them a la Messier when he got there.
That's a nice contract for a guy that 15 good games for Florida after underwhelming in Calgary for years.
The Hawks are shit. That trade on their part was hideous. Organization is completely clueless.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 10:52 am Seth Jones had that 57 point season in 17-18 and his play has trended down each year culminating in being spectacularly average last season. The Hawks will regret that contract.
Yeah, I had always hoped the Blues would take a run at him because he just seemed like a guy that really needed a new home to jump start his career.BillP. wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 11:26 amThat's pretty decent.

If the Isles/Devils are both angling to trade for Tarasenko, can we expect something like the Athletic proposed:usmcaaron wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:21 am Assuming that's the "big" FA signing, I'd expect they'll bring back Bozak on the cheap.
So these are the lines, I guess? Maybe depending on what comes back in the eventual Tarasenko deal.....
Saad - O'Reilly - Perron
Schenn - Thomas - Buchnevich
Sanford - Bozak - Kyrou
Barbashev - Sunny - Kostin
That LW really needs more work.
What would we look for from New Jersey, Michael McCleod? Nolan Foote? Ryan Graves? Kevin Bahl?ISLANDERS - Potential trade package: Right-shot defenseman Noah Dobson, left winger Michael Dal Colle
If we get Noah Dobson then I call this a good to great off season for Army. I say potentially great because it's not over yet.RAFritchey wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 1:27 pmIf the Isles/Devils are both angling to trade for Tarasenko, can we expect something like the Athletic proposed:usmcaaron wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:21 am Assuming that's the "big" FA signing, I'd expect they'll bring back Bozak on the cheap.

I've seen it posted (but not verified) that the hold up between Stl/NYI is Dobson. Blues want him. Lou doesn't wanna let him go.RAFritchey wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 1:27 pmIf the Isles/Devils are both angling to trade for Tarasenko, can we expect something like the Athletic proposed:usmcaaron wrote: Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:21 am Assuming that's the "big" FA signing, I'd expect they'll bring back Bozak on the cheap.
