I honestly think Hicketts earned a spot, if not for having to give guaranteed spots to Kronwall and Ericsson (ericsson especially) he'd be here instead of Sproul. I like Spoul, but I just think Hicketts has passed him up on the talent scale.

But in 2 years he'll be an RFA with arbitration eligibility, a la Tatar. Take the 2 years at $1.9M and prove you're worth more and get your $5M+ next contract after you net 100 pts. in those 2 seasons.

Pens start trading, could Sheahan be leaving soon? https://twitter.com/CapFriendly/status/915269481169121280

Hey look, I can be a successful Wings reporter like Malik! Cut.....Paste....Cut....Paste! But, ya, here is some info I found on the signing. Thanks to @mikeyisViral

No. $1.9 is his value. I'd be ok with $4M for 2 at the very most!

Well technically, Witkowski is the 8th D and he can play forward, so he is the 13th forward.

Same agent, same amount of points, one goal away from each other, $1.9M looks perfect from my view...

When AA signs, Witkowski will be BOTH the 8th D and the 13th FWD!

Ok, I just tweeted Andreas up and advised him to take the $1.9M, we're good, he'll get it done!

Ok, now that we know AA's market value (with Anderson signing in CBJ) here's is what the opening night roster should be: Tatar - Z - Nyquist Mantha - Larkin - Frk AA - Nielsen - Booth Abby - Glen - Helm DD - Daley XO - Green Ericsson (bleh) - Jensen Howard If Kronwall is ready, I am sure he will be in place of XO. Speaking of cap, isn't today the day all teams must become cap compliant? If so, we have to clear about $500,000 in cap. We are sitting at $4.4M over and Franzen is only $3.9M...and that's BEFORE signing AA,

Hey Kenny and AA, theres your comparable. Anderson just signed a deal for 3 years, $1.85M per. He had 17 goals 12 Assists for 29 points. AA had 18 goals 11 assists for 29 points. 2 years $1.9M IS market value for AA, lets get this done! ...and then lets get Sheahan traded (or Kronner LTIR) to clear up this cap mess!

Well we do need Ericsson and Kronwall don't you know?

Well, both Sproul and Booth were placed on waivers today.

Either a trade is coming or Kronwall with start season on LTIR. Whichever we now need to get AA signed!

PAP didnt make the cut. Booth did. For now... Detroit Red Wings G Jared Coreau – waivers for purpose of assignment D Brian Lashoff – waivers for purpose of assignment F Matt Lorito – waivers for purpose of assignment D Dylan McIlrath – waivers for purpose of assignment F P.A. Parenteau – released from PTO F Michael Rasmussen – Tri-City (WHL) F Ben Street – waivers for purpose of assignment

Rest my friend. Probie has a beer waiting for You!

Yep, you can say that again!

That will be unfortunate having Kronwall and E on the opening night roster...

Yes, the crow will taste very good. ALTHOUGH I would still rather have had Tippett and feel his ceiling his still higher than Rass, but I too liked his play this pre-season. I am very impressed with Larkin, Mantha, Rass, Daley, Booth, Frk, Hicketts to name a few. I am impressed with others too, but those are the ones that have stood out to me. I LOVE how our D looks WITHOUT Kronner and E. Hicketts and Sproul will suffer the numbers game for those two. I do believe Howard has regained his #1 job. Man, what happened to Mrazek?

Madness? This is Sparta!

You no longer need nor lose a timeout if you challenge. If you're wrong you get a minor penalty....sort of like the stick challenge.

Just watching tsn talking about different players and they had commented that Will Butcher is the real deal. But Holland.

I don't get it. There's no outrageous trades there. So you're saying we shouldn't deal green or one of the goalies? Pit already wants Sheahan...so I don't understand your sarcastic response.

If PAP makes the roster, make note that he also was a teammate for 2 years of Tavares. Could help a bit...
