But there's only been a couple true bad deals today. Holl and Reeves. 

 

Glad they avoided those but it was more about the flat cap than anything else 

Gudas, Orlov at almost 8m, Killorn 4x6M to name a few

Worst signing of the day in the league is what ?

 

I think Holl to the Red Wings. 3 years , 3.4 million for a traffic cone. 

But but... Yzerman does no wrong he is the b3st GM...

Look at the past 10 years and tell me that there's not been as many bad deals as good ones July 1st?  I'm talking league-wide now....

[danaimo]

Killorn 4 x 6.25mil might be the worst deal of the day

All three signings are elite on the PK - if the young core and support pieces continue to show growth, could see a big jump up the standings with a solid PK. 

[Fakename70]

So, I wonder what those at CDC who kept harping on character as it relates to Tocchet and his gambling issue have to say about Cole and the abuse allegations against him?

Really good day for the Canucks. We have a stronger back end. If we can squeeze in Compher, it's really, really good.

And a 3rd line centre who specializes on the PK.

 

Essentially both defenders and this centre are very good at the PK.

 

Yay! No more worst PK in the NHL. 
 

If we were just average in this category we might have made the playoffs last season.

[hammertime]

K so we're done now. We spent the whole cap this is our team this year. 

 

Kuz Pete Brock

Beau  Miller Garland

Mikheyev Beluger Pod

Hog Aman Dakota

 

Hughes Soucy

Cole Hronek 

Breezer Myers

 

Demko and frineds

 

Are we a playoff team? Seems iffy.

 

[EddieVedder]

Blueger and soucy are perfrct additions

[Nicklas Bo Hunter]

Still need a 3rd line C. Not many avail.

I’ve been saying it for 3 years now…. Yzerman is soooooo overrated as a gm… our fan base would go nuts if we used a 4th 6th 6th 7th 8th and 9th on Raymond sieder edvinsson zadina Kasper and danielson

I like Blueger but if we can add a stronger C and move him down to the 4th C I would be down for it. 
 

It would make us much stronger for the playoff push. C and D depth is important.

Its literally the first day of free agency and over 90 days to the start of next season, this is not the final on ice roster. 

[danaimo]

Jarry 5x5.38 mil is another contender for bad signing of the day

Well we still got ltir space as well as Likelyhood of Myers and well as garland/beauvillier heading out and an addition of a 3c, but I can see the doubters that think they are more competent than a very educated management team still crap on this fantastic day

Yeah I’m hoping to lose Myers in September and trade for a higher end defender

So would it be correct to say that if either Poolman/Pearson are healthy in the fall,  we're in trouble?  There must be additional moves coming,  no?

[Baratheon]

"tHe MeDiA" sounds pretty positive today.  Almost like the whole "mEdIa H8s uS" thing is an overblown crutch of an argument.
