    Guys.

    The Flyers are going to be so bad.

    Please, have some sympathy for me during the season, and don't be too cruel with the laughter.

    Sorry, I've already given my sympathy to Blackhawks fans. The 'Bust for Bedard' race is on.

    Red Wings very busy in free agency today. They signed:

    Dominik Kubalik from the Blackhawks
    Ben Chariot from the Panthers
    David Perron from The Blues
    Andrew Copp from The Rangers

    Goaltender Darcy Kuemper, who won the Stanley Cup with the Colorado Avalanche last month, has signed a five-year free agent contract with the Washington Capitals.

    Kuemper, 32, agreed to a $26.25 million deal that carries an average annual value of $5.25 million against the salary cap.

    Copp is very well known here. He was born and raised in Ann Arbor and played for the University Of Michigan. This is a very popular signing in these parts.

    Yeah. Trochek is a good fallback plan, but I was hoping they could retain Copp as well. I guess that means Strome is gone as well?

    Edit: Ahh...I see Strome has signed with the Ducks.

    Yes...quite a surprise. Glad it wasn't Philly, NJ, or the isles of course. Wonder what made him think that was the place to go for glory.

    I was really impressed with Trocheck during the NYR/CAR series. He'll help with the Rangers eternal struggles with faceoffs too.
    Surprised at the Gaudreau signing as well. Maybe he just likes cannons.
    Tony DeAngelo in Philly. As if I needed another reason to hate the Flyers.

    Face-offs...exactly. We SUCK at those and Trocheck is a huge plus there. I like his grit too, always in the middle of things.

    DeAngelo vs Torts...that should be interesting

    Two classic player legends crushing it at GM and free agency so far:

    Stevie Y and Joe Sakic.
    Detroit made some real nice moves and Sakic managed to IMO wisely pick n choose whom to let go yet stay in the hunt for a repeat.

    Yes...Detroit may have had the best FA period thus far.

    He'll make it through the year, but I'd love to know what he's thinking now that he's seeing what's going on. Wonder if he has regrets yet.

    Has Johnny said why Columbus? This is a real head scratcher. He left money on the table w the Flames, the Devils I think we’re at least a match. Isles and Flyers were a little light.

    It’s up to Wally to grow up quick on the Island.

    I have been a Red Wings fan my whole life and have never seen anything like this. It looks like Stevie wants to start winning now and is willing to spend the money to do so. Given the drafts that the team has also had the last 3 years I think it will be an expectation that the Red Wings are back to being at least a playoff level team this year. Of course, with a brand new coach anything is possible.

    I actually wasn't laughing at you. I was laughing at Thomas wanting me to lose a bet

    I'm honestly very interested in what Torts does there. Always liked him despite his outbursts of asshole...makes for good TV He's a good coach though and gets the most out of players that do well with tough love. I'm also even more interested in how he will handle Tony DeAngelo. Awesome offensive defense man, but complete douche.
