If Ken Holland is signing guys I've never heard of, despite knowing more hockey players than most have forgotten, only because they are from Michigan, I'm sure I'll get a call and get a contract next

I like? The Canucks moves so far today? I'm disappointed that Demers turned down a trade but these are all sensible reclamation projects or gambles. I can deal with this while the team transitions.

Mason didn't deserve to get run out of town by Philly, but honestly a replacement of Mason with Elliot, especially for only two years, is fine.

$16 million to sign Dumo, Schultz, and Sheary. We also have no 3rd or 4th line center right now which is a bit distressing.

Jultz will get little like 5 a year I think, deservedly so, but I don't see Sheary and Dumpling costing 11 mill /yr

I am surprised Nashville didn't sign him; he seems to excel at getting the puck to predators forwards

I'll tell you, my first-year Jets jersey is a Burmistrov, hah

That's a good price for him, but he never wanted to evolve his game, he'll fill a hole in your centre line-up for the year and that's it

I've never seen a hockey player look so much like he got yanked out of the stands and asked to play right before the game. (Haha, Kessel, right?)
