tl:dr

Stevie just confirmed Howard is gone.

Shut up and listen! You might learn something, CatBoyPucci.

f***. I difn’t know this show had Art on it. Sorry ya’ll.

Yzerman on FA and the draft. Live feed. Starts now.

Hronek dominating. 5gp 2g 6p.

Maybe just there is a consensus around the league that Perfetti is the fourth best prospect in this draft and thats why everybody are so sure Detroit is picking him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Look where Tampa is at. Thats Stevies plan for us. Larkin confirmed next captain.

Why did we dig 6 feet deep to bring up this thread again? Confusing with two offseason threads.

It’s about to get crazy in the NHL. “Oh geez, it is crazy,” said one NHL general manager on Tuesday. The Stanley Cup has been awarded. The draft is less than a week away and teams still have to completely reshape their rosters. The problem, lamented the GM, is it’s hard to establish pricing right now. The traditional price paid, from a free agent to a trade, is out the window because teams are strapped. Budgets are kicking in. And still. Everyone wants to get better. “That jams everybody up for everything. You have to get creative,” said another GM on Tuesday afternoon. “You end up doing things you wouldn’t have thought. That’s what’s going on.” • Red Wings GM Steve Yzerman has been taking care of business and made it clear that Detroit is willing to add salary to acquire more young assets for the rebuild. One thing that will help clarify how much he can spend on that front is a new contract for restricted free agent Anthony Mantha. Talks have progressed on that front and are moving in the right direction. It wouldn’t be surprising if that contract is shorter than originally thought. If he were to do a, let’s say, three-year extension, that would allow him to hit free agency before he’s 30 and in a time where there should be more clarity on the financial landscape of the league.

Did not read the link, but maybe Hagelin? If he still got that speed...

yfw all the pieces were in place all along

Does this mean the Red Wings sucked less or even more?

Any word on the physical status on DK?

Tampa wins the Stan Lee Cup. Can we have Jon Cooper now?

Sure they gonna get raises but this projection gotta be too high. They are 25 and 26 years old and both have played about a hundred NHL games.

Who? And why are they getting almost 5 mil?

Bobby Mac be baitin'

So Stevie confirmed that Errorson and Daley are not returning. Anybody heard anything on Erne or Perlini?

I really hope Detroit is thrown in there because >muh hometown reasons

Stay away, Stephen.

Its a depth signing with a contract thats totally buriable. No problem.

So whats the setup here, does these guys get to come back when Red Wings camp starts?
