The more I read up on Savard the more convinced I am he will be a great fit and a strong ‘value’ signing like Chiarot. But if we fail to add a puck-mover then this summer will be a failure overall, period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neech Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Gutted to lose Danault. Not sure that all these defensive defensemen will be nearly as effective without the stud defensive C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And good for the Habs we aren’t paying him that coin. he is excellent at what he does, but he needs more offense to be worthy of that contract. im also glad he is in the west where Suzuki et al won’t need to deal with him unless it’s the finals! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zumpano21 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I think some of these teams didn’t read the memo on a flat cap for who knows how long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is an irresponsible contract for LA but it would be even worse for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dalhabs Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Good for Pizza-Phil. He worked hard for years and now he got his payday. And happy we are not the ones to overpay him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went overseas because he didn't want to play in the minors anymore, then signs with a team that will probably put him in the minors. Not the landing spot I expected for him.

IN THE HEARTS OF MEN Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 But that deal is off the table... Pies Suter would be a very nice addition to push Evans Poehling and Paquette And I still think Hakanpaa is a solid depth player. There just isn't a mobile puck mover on the UFA market worth having... maybe Norlinder is further along then we think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanpuck33 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I am shocked that the Avs let Grubauer get away, especially for such a reasonable price. Could they be players for MAF with Chicago retaining a little salary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GHT120 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 3 hours ago, Trizzak said: Charles Hudon signs in Tampa. Seems like an expensive two-way deal ... CapFriendly suggests a $350K minmum guaranteed overall salary (i.e., between AHL and NHL) ... I guess he is in the mix for their 11th - 14th forward spots ... the best I recall him playing was a couple of seasons ago when was on the 4th line ... he focused on being "a pest", trying to take advantage if/when scoring opportunities arose ... if he has learned the lesson that he is a good AHL scorer but isn't an offensive player in the NHL and needs to be a 4th line "stuff" disturber to play regularly in the NHL he has a chance to be a TBL instead of a Crunch.

I don’t want to be rude, so all I can say is that’s a seriously misguided thought. Gallagher and Anderson will provide far more value. If Danault was a reliable 15-20 goal scorer instead of a guy who often looked like he couldn’t score into an empty net, I would have been fine with the Canadiens re-signing him at that price. LA will be regretting that contact sooner rather than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurdBurglar Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hoffman signs in Montreal for 4 years at $4.5m AAV. I know Montreal has been trying to get him for a few years. Curious to see if there is anything else going to happen at center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHT120 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Wonder if MB was after Getzlaf and settled for Hoffman ... or wanted both, and planned on clearing some cap to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
