A-
Got a key piece in Brouwer without overpaying drastically or offering too much term. Not a cheap deal either, so that knocks down the grade a little. Still, perfect guy to sign, especially for what he brings for the price.
Got a very solid backup goaltender that nearly stole the starting job in Buffalo last year. 40+ games with a .920 SV%. Those are pretty great numbers for $1.7 million.
Not picking up players who wanted too much money was a big plus. Leaving guys like Boedker, Lucic, Eriksson, Reimer, etc. with their contract demands for our rivals to fulfill was extremely smart.
