Chicago did not qualify him as an RFA.

I do believe Bobby Ryan will re-sign. Yzerman is probably giving him the courtesy of seeing what's out there. Probably has a contract ready for him if he decides there is nothing there. We need RH Forwards.

@blueadams We need some line combos!

Ya never know!

There's your 2nd line!

Now we're talking!!!!

He said enough is enough.... barring trade to acquire cap, I think we're done. I guess we'll see all of Pearson, Smith, Veleno and Hirose in Detroit.

2-way contract has nothing to do with being able to be sent down or not. Murphy has no waiver exemptions, he will be exposed if he gets sent down. 2-way is for salary only. 1-way contract means your salary is the same whether you are in the NHL or AHL. 2-way means your salary is lower in the AHL.

Who is Ryan Murphy?

All these TSN guys saying Detroit and Buffalo are going to struggle don't realize that they are talking about: 2022 Vezina Winner - Alex Nedjelkovic 2022 Calder/Norris Winner - Mo Seider 2022 Ted Lindsay Winner - Jakub Vrana 2022 Hart/Selke/Byng/Messier Trophy Winner - Dylan Larkin 2022 Masterson Award Winner - Marc Staal 2022 Jack Adams Winner - Jeff Blashill 2022 Gregory Award Winner - Steve Yzerman ..so ya, here we come baby! What do these teams plan to do being so far over the cap? IMO, if you don't have the cap space TODAY, you cannot sign the player!

I just relate him with Yzerman. I would not care if we got another LHD like....speaking of every thread....acquiring Nic Hauge in a Cap dump trade with Vegas! Sorry, couldn't resist! Again most importantly I'd like to see a LHD come in and be in our top 4.

Not obssessed, but if he is similar to a lot of other LHD, maybe he'll choose here because of the Yzerman history. But ya, most importantly I love to see just a LHD, but not just a 7th spot filler, we have them already. I want DD and Staal to be the 6th/7th guys, I'd love to see a D come in and be in our top 4.

Teams that may have to dump some cap...unless we are going to play the Tampa Bay Cap Circumvention Game again this season. NHL needs to end that "cheating." Just make the cap be in affect throughout the playoffs. That will end it. Plus it probably would've prevented Tampa from winning back to back.

Honestly though, there hasn't been any players signed anywhere that I would've wanted on Detroit (other than Glenny) so that is good. Koekkoek and P. Suter would be nice. I am also waiting for a big trade....

I don't see Yzerman doing too much today. I'm hoping for a LHD and Pius Suter. Looks like teams just don't like getting fleeced by Steve, they're all trading with each other and leaving us out. I certainly hope Helm splits. But with Glenny going away, he might get a contract....ugh....

I'm a little disappointed in Glenny. Looks like Carolina replaced their G

Well s***...

Happy UFA Day! I'm really hoping for Pius Suter and some cap acquisition.

Full list of UFA NQ

You knew someone would. He's too good to judge him based on politics. I can guarantee with the money these NHL players make, they are more conservative than liberal anyhow. But he is a great player, I wish Detroit had shown interest.

This is a player I really hope Yzerman focuses on. He even fits the rebuild age!
