They sign a UFA or two (Danault? Schwartz?), trade for cap dump Johnson (+Foote and a pick?) from the Lightning for peanuts, and it starts to round out.

 

I have a feeling there's still LOTS to come here.

Been saying this for hours...couldn't agree more.

If the media is to be believed, I'm not really impressed by Kraken's picks. They chose some random bloke in CBL and apparently Aaron Portzline says there's no side deal. LOL.

 


"Career minor leaguer" - what the hell is Francis doing?

It's more confusing to think they didn't make a side deal, either.

same. I'm pretty stoked. didn't care at all for Vegas but I'm happy for Seattle. much more of a hockey town

I think there is a real good chance the Kraken / Canucks rivalry is equal to that between the Canucks / Flames and Canucks / Oilers rivalry's. They will be a big draw at Rogers Arena. Good for hockey fans and great for the owners too.

I can only guess, but it might be a combination of things:

  • They didn't like any of the available players, but had to pick one. 
  • He's super cheap so they can save cap space for other moves. 
  • They like his analytics.

They have zero need for left D. Don't see that happening.

 

Well good for them. Now they have even less cap space, marginally better goaltending with 40 :lol: year old Smith (until SEA makes some trades/signings) and a marginally better F group until SEA makes some trades/signings. And they'll probably still have more cap space than EDM when they're done :lol:

Oilers now looking at Hamonic as Larsson's replacement ?

Never ends.
