Right what the gently caress is Nashville doing?

Edit: LA gets Cam Talbot, 1x1M. A very low-risk deal

We have the capability to make San Jose's first Cup Champion.

The Sharks could be that Champion.

Travis Dermott is available too!

Wild to me that people were still touting his draft pedigree and saying that he could still be a top-4 defender at the start of last season. Great poster child for always asking yourself “what does this guy actually do?” when someone puts up a pretty blue chart about a small 3rd-pair guy with no points.

Buffalo signs Connor Clifton, 3x3.33M

I don't know what Buffalo is doing with their defense so far.

Clifton was apparently a good penalty killer on Boston. He will probably be a good partner for Power, assuming he’s a righty.

Johnson is probably a depth signing, a big veteran who can play shutdown on the third pair and PK minutes. They’ve also still got Lyubushkin and Jokiharju and a couple other guys. Definitely a step in the right direction.

He got a giant, career ruining concussion with the Canucks. He looked fine but unremarkable when he was healthy. He's a #7 if his brain gets fixed.

I mean, I watched ~250 games of him playing for the Leafs, I guarantee he’s a #7 on a good team at best with or without his brain.

There's a diverse array of stats people who insisted that Holl was actually good, though I think Charron said he started declining through the end of last season and will probably get signed for more than he's worth even on his own model.

He was also accused of grooming a highschool girl. The league's investigation into it was "well we DM'd her on twitter and she didn't respond. Case dismissed."

Blueger is good, solid choice for a 3rd line centre.
