Happy Free Agency Day!

$3M for Stalberg?

Oi.

Averaged 20G 23A 43P over the past two seasons.  He really wasn't a big performer in the postseason though.

huh...

Is that real?

Yes, Obviously glad that his BFF Bozak is sticking around.

TSNBobMcKenzie: NSH agrees to 4 year, $12M deal with Viktor Stalberg.

I would vastly prefer this deal to any 5+ year deal for Clarkson ...

 

[drummond]

DarrenDreger: $21M for 5 years. Bozak Leafs

Meh. Not totally awful, but not good.

That's not bad really. 

I thought $3.5 - $4 was the number.

I agree I was hoping for 4 years/15-16M, 5 years/21M is not that bad. Once Kadri bimps him from 1 line, his contract would become a burden...

That's like saying she's pregnant but ain't that pregnant.  Bogosity is bogosity.

No, it ain't. The numbers aren't super accurate but it's not like Phil Kessel is leading the league in hits.

Not me, I prefer Clarkson for more money.

 

[bustaheims]

low 5's for Clarkson says Cox.

So, overpaid by ~$2M instead of ~$3M? Lovely.

 

[BlueWhiteBlood]

$4.2 mil for Bozak.... this is just fine a rate to me to be honest, esp considering he is free to sign anywhere at the moment.  Hopefully he fades to the 3rd line role in a year or two and is then in the gig he should be in, not really overpaid at all.

We should put Tyler Biggs on the 4th line RW position. Just let him play and learn from Fraser, Clarkson, Orr and McLaren. No team in the NHL would have a chance in the rough part of the game anyway.

Weiss is going to be $6 mil a year signing for Wings or Blues.

You gotta remember that the guy who is counting Clarkson's hits is probably the same guy who credited the Leafs with 6 SOG in that playoff game way back when.

Just didn't think he would tweet it, or even that fast. Maybe they are cuddling on the couch.

Not sure if Kadri will ever be a 1A... would be nice if it plays out that way.

I did too, and 6 was total BS.

Sure. Point being people made a big deal about Komarov's hit totals because it reflected what they saw. Clarkson hits people, Grabo didn't really. Unless you're counting face-washes after the whistle as a hit.

Are we sure it is for 7 years?

Which I do.  Bites, too.
