Bonino will probably get $4.5M plus per year or over $20M total... nincompoop GM's will over spend as always and amrageodon returns in few season anyways

I just hope GMJR keeps to the recipe... fast skaters, hungry players, glue guys...

NHL Radio on my way in to work this morning said Shero is possibly looking to shop Adam Henrique. If that is true then make every effort to get him from NJ as your 3C. Only signed thru 2019 I believe at $4M per.

Don't trade with Shero. He will fleece you. Most of his trades were solid wins for the Pens (I blame Bylsma)

Hanzel to stars likely.

Postby **Kicksave** » Sat Jul 01, 2017 10:51 am

The Stars are going to be a whole new team.

Looks like Williams back to Carolina.

They're definitely, quickly trying to make themselves a real contender. Can Hitch work some magic?

Happy FA Day guys. I always find this day to be bittersweet.

It's funny under shero I would expect him to do something dumb today at the thought of losing Kunitz, bones and Daley. Like matching one of their contracts or over paying someone (scuds).

Rutherford has no problem letting them walk if their contracts don't fit his value of them

Yeah, Shero is great at making trades, not so good at other things... overpaying for Scuds, not signing Niskanen on the cheap when he could have, giving money to Kennedy instead of Jagr, etc.

Hainsey to Leafs?

Postby **spiritfan** » Sat Jul 01, 2017 11:35 am
