Wippersnapper posted:Apparently Vancouver re-signed Rodin for 1 year at 700k which I think is a pretty good move considering what he did in the SHL and how he looked in the pre-season last year. He's certainly worth a low money shot anyways - especially as no one knows what he can do if he's healthy. In addition to Gagner and Del Zotto, they're also looking at Burmistrov: https://twitter.com/FriedgeHNIC/status/880939507851431936 Not really sure what the end goal is for Jim Benning with these signings, given that they're supposed to be rebuilding.

So the Oilers signed 7 players who'll all likely play for Bakersfield next season, 3 of which (Rattie, Lowe, Ferlin) come from the 2011 draft. Normally this wouldn't be noteworthy, except this means that out of the 47 players the Oilers have signed to a contract next season (including Draisaitl), 10 of them are from the 2011 draft: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (1st overall) Adam Larsson (4th overall) Ryan Strome (5th overall) Oscar Klefbom (19th overall) Ty Rattie (32nd overall) Keegan Lowe (73rd overall) Dillon Simpson (92nd overall) Brian Ferlin (121st overall) Laurent Brossoit (164th overall) Iiro Pakarinen (184th overall) What is with Peter Chiarelli and his love of 2011 draft picks, aside from the fact the Bruins won the Cup that year.

Krime posted:How much of Washington's cap is tied up in 31.2%. Right now, Caps have roughly $4.7 mil left in cap space and still need to re-sign Burakovsky and Grubauer on top of getting at least 2 more forwards and 1 more defenseman. Their cap situation is unpleasant right now.

Two of the recent Atlantic contenders in the Habs and Panthers took some big, ugly, steps backwards and no-one has really stepped up to the plate. I think you're forgetting that Tampa is in the Atlantic and really loving good when healthy. I mean, they're even willing to handicap themselves by signing Girardi! Isn't that nice of them?

The only question is whether or not the team he signs with will actually use him efficiently. Say something like sheltered middle 6 minutes and on one of the PP units.

Aphrodite posted:When the Penguins did tank in both of those examples they knew what they were getting. It's amazing how they tanked in a draft year where the season was cancelled. This was also the case in 2015 when Buffalo and Arizona both tanked to try and get McDavid. Thankfully, the tankers didn't win, and the worst team who wasn't tanking (Edmonton) did get him so all was right in the world.
