I hope Smith destroys someone tonight.

Wow, wtf. Watching the Tampa feed on center ice, these commentators are clueless.

LGRW!!

I'm really excited to see what this team does this season. Good or bad it is going to be nice to see what kind of progress we are making.

But it would be a great deal on the back end right? How many times did that work out for us?

Another Center

This is where Nyquist used to play on the PP, I think it was the 13-14 season. We had a 20-something% PP and Nyquist had a dozen or so PPG. I like seeing a "net front" player who isn't used as just a screen. If we can get some shots through this guy has an opportunity to clean up a lot of easy goals.

Vrana's hearing date is 8/11 Erne's 8/21

One more RFA signed, hopefully they all start to fall into place soon.

Do you see Yzerman doing something with the remaining cap? 8-13 million is a pretty good chunk of cash to leave unspent.

What do we see the other two RFA contracts costing us? More importantly, how much cap space will we have left over once we sign all 4 of our RFAs. Cap friendly says we have 25M in space left, it looks like we would still have a big chunk of cap left once we sign Vrana and Erne, Smith.

Good luck in NJ, go make Mandela proud.

Same thing I was thinking. We probably could have stayed at 38 and got him.

Keith Yandle just got bought out in FLA, he might bag a good veteran to add to the back end. https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/2187272/amp
