He is probably a good fit for scoring depth on the highest scoring team in the NHL.

Good value signing for Dallas. Hudler's got gas left in the tank. He was a part of some of the prettiest goals the Flames scored post 2012 lockout, even before Gaudreau and Monahan arrived.

All the best, Jiri!

A cup contender gets even stronger... great depth signing for them... and this just makes sooooo much more sense for Jiri than signing in Vancouver!!

That's a fantastic signing. Jiri will thrive in Dallas.

Add Hudler to your late round fantasy draft board.

It'll be interesting to see which Jiri decides to show up because this is not a signing absent of risk, but definitely could be good reward for the dollars.

IIRC, wasn't Hudler hurt for a good portion of last season? If I recall, he was nursing an injury. That could have hindered his production.

Dallas is a very good team that's very offensively-oriented. I think Hudler could eclipse 50-55 points again.

I figured he'd sign between $1 and $2mil. I couldn't believe there were some putting him in the Glencross category, wondering if he'd get a PTO or no contract at all, others thinking league minimum just because he hadn't signed yet.

Never assume that no contract deep into summer automatically means no interest/league minimum player.

So he plays with Seguin and Benn or Spezza? Good call... Agreed that he should light it up with Dallas
