Which big UFA has signed for 2-3 years lol

Well there was Hossa who signed for one year with Detroit.

Clarkson has an NTC and NMC? Are you kidding?

All the big free agents will assuredly have those. Not a surprise.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Nonis has lost his mind.

He tells everyone that he will only do deals that make financial sense, then signs an older, shittier version of MacArthur to a SEVEN YEAR DEAL WORTH NEARLY FORTY MILLION.

 

[Plinko]

Apparently Flip is looking for 5-5.5 for 7-8 years.

7-8 years?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That report from TSN on Helm doesn't sound great. Skating at the developmental camp because they don't know where he is health-wise.

 

[Socreges]

Over under on the inevitable Clarkson buyout.

I'm calling three years tops

Do these Leafs fans not realize that he's already 29 years old? It's a horrible contract. Paying way too much for intangibles

 

[Silexx]

I fully expect Spezza to be the next captain, but if Chris Neil is chosen, I'm all for it.

 

[Marvie_3]

Woah, Boyd Gordon got $3m per season? I doubt anyone else was willing to pay that much

Wanted him in Chicago as a 3C/4C but not for anywhere near that much.

Iginla!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The general leafs fan is an idiot

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Looks like Weiss is actually coming in around a cap hit of 5 mil or slightly less.

FTW!

7-8 years?

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

That report from TSN on Helm doesn't sound great. Skating at the developmental camp because they don't know where he is health-wise.

Was reported a while ago that he wanted to skate in the development camp to see how he was doing since he is feeling better.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

What're you trying to say?

From what I gather he had double digit goals and assists on some bad Florida teams.

Still, underwhelmed is not even close to the word right now.

That was before the injuries and multiple shoulder surgeries lol.

 

[KernelPanic]

Iginla!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He was awful last year, amazing he is still out there without any rumors as to where he is going.

I fully expect Spezza to be the next captain, but if Chris Neil is chosen, I'm all for it.

It will be Spezza, they will be kissing his ass now as his contract is up in 2 years.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Odd how there has literally been no buzz on Iginla

You would think the Wings would've made a pass at him with Alfredsson's contract.

But I believe Iginla specified that he only wanted to play for 4 teams (Canucks, Pens, Rangers, Kings) so maybe he's holding out for them.

 

[Foreign Jackass]

What the hell is a Boyd Gordon?

 

[Wingfan19]

FTW!

Clark Rasmussen ‏@detroithockey96 1m

Significantly better number. RT @GrahamWIIM Uncle Bob says on TSN DET is the frontrunner for Weiss with an AAV "around $5M or a little less"

Yeah, just heard McKenzie say that on TSN.

 

[Cake Boss]

Outproduced Alfie, in the playoffs 8 points in 15 games isnt bad when you are playing on your off wing.

We need him to make any big run at a Cup. To me, he's the most underrated player in the league.

 

[Samyy]

I cant believe all the Leafs fans on HF are loving this deal what the fuckkkkk

 

[Cousteau]

Things r lookin up for Cbus ever since trading Nash.

 

[Quick]

Sucks to see My Liege Clarke MacArthur head over to Ottawa.

Also, CAKE BOSS GET OFF THAT LEDGE. YOU STILL HAVE SWEDISH STUD MUFFIN KARLSSON. IT'S NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.

Clarkson has an NTC and NMC? Are you kidding?

NONIS!!!!!!!!!

 

[Brinbe]

ugh... looking at those numbers, would rather we'd just sign Weiss and call it a day.

lol look at how much you've spent and STILL without that 1C. Godfuckingdamnit

 

[bonesmccoy]

TIL that, as a Leafs fan, I should fear Free Agent Day.

 

[Osorio]

That was before the injuries and multiple shoulder surgeries lol.

Holy shit.

 

[terrible]

What the hell is a Boyd Gordon?

Excellent defensive center with a nice FO win %.

 

[Quick]

Actually pretty happy for Komisarek getting another shot with a reasonable deal. Good on him.

 

[KernelPanic]

Outproduced Alfie, in the playoffs 8 points in 15 games isnt bad when you are playing on your off wing.

On Pittsburgh, think about what team he played on and recall how slow he looked out there.

He did shit in Calgary last year and he was always good there with an ass team before.

 

[Cake Boss]

Nashiville signing people
Coyotes are signing people
Colombus is offering 7 year contracts

And we cant afford to sign anyone

I wish the lockout never ended.

 

[RC]

Nonis might need a pair of Zoomies.

 

[Socreges]

lol look at how much you've spent and STILL without that 1C. Godfuckingdamnit

I thought you guys re-signed Bozak?

Aren't the Leafs really close to the cap now? With Kadri up as RFA and some more roster spots that need to be filled?

 

[Silexx]

It will be Spezza, they will be kissing his ass now as his contract is up in 2 years.

Sad thing is that I was already making peace with Spezza leaving after his contract was up. But now, I'm also expecting the biggest ass-kissing from the Sens to keep him,

 

[Cake Boss]

Most of his season points came at Calgary.

 

[kassatsu]

He won't miss any of the action

 

[Samyy]

I wonder what overpriced third line player Nonis will flip our first for
WHY COULDNT WE GIVE WEISS THAT MONEY INSTEAD OF BOZAK OH MY GOD

 

[KernelPanic]

Sad thing is that I was already making peace with Spezza leaving after his contract was up. But now, I'm also expecting the biggest ass-kissing from the Sens to keep him,

If he continues to have problems with his back and if Turris and Zib keep progressing they might let him go anyway.

 

[terrible]

I thought you guys re-signed Bozak?

Bozak doesn't even have the skill to be a solid 2C imo, at least not on a cup contender. He's not good enough defensively to be a top end 3rd line checking center either. Ugh.

 

[BigJonsson]

Maybe Weiss didn't want to play here?

 

[Socreges]

Cullen, 2yrs @ 3.5m per

Holy shit, these contracts.

T'was a joke

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 1m

Stephen Weiss to DET is done. 5 years, $4.9M.

done and acceptable.

Absolutely beautiful, dang it Holland, you may not have re-signed Brunner, but you got rid of Flip and Cleary and their crazy demands and got us a legit 2 line C and Old Man Alfie.

 

[Kave_Man]

I thought you guys re-signed Bozak?

Aren't the Leafs really close to the cap now? With Kadri up as RFA and some more roster spots that need to be filled?

About 14 mil left to sign kadri, gunnarsson and Franson I believe.

 

[Plinko]

$4.9 mil? I'm all for that.

 

[Samyy]

About 14 mil left to sign kadri, gunnarsson and Franson I believe.

And Bernier

 

[Merguson]

The Leafs have approximately $14 million left in cap space. 15 players signed.

Kadri, Franson, Gunnarsson and Bernier are the notable RFAs.

 

[lamaroo]

done and acceptable.

I don't know enough about Weiss, looks like an okay contract?

 

[Cake Boss]

Good contract for Detroit.

 

[Fei]

That's a great contract for Weiss if he comes back the same player he was before the injury.

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Dat top 6


Zetterberg-Datsyuk-Alfredsson
Franzen-Weiss-Nyquist

*bites lip

 

[Merguson]

Sounds like the Leafs and Weiss never really talked.

 

[TemplaerDude]

Articles have been written and tweets have been made about how the Canucks should pursue Brule.

This season is over before it even fucking began.
