Free agents have I believe 7 days before July 1st to talk to any and every team.
Uh, he gave up 3 goals on a bajillion scoring chances. The fourth was an empty netter.
He's the only reason this isn't a 10-0 blowout is because he's been awesome.
To say it was a Flames mistake not to sign him is a pretty big stretch considering he re-signed with his team...let it go, Calgary had no legit shot at him

Ok, fine. Say we could have spoken to him, what could we have offered him that the Wild couldn't have matched? Starting goalie position? Money? He'd gone there, been the go to guy, performed lights out, gone to the play offs. He probably enjoyed it there, was probably quite settled there. Why would he bail on them for us?
Besides, I bet his agent tested the market to see how much interest was out there, but I'm betting he was quite happy to stay put. We never had a chance at signing him, think you're out to lunch to suggest otherwise.
Russell only played ~17.5 minutes; his lowest TOI since joining the Stars. He may not be healthy; just needs to stay healthy enough to play at least 6 more games

May have been his lowest but it was #4 for the D in terms of TOI. So second paring?

I had pretty low expectations coming into this series. But the Wild was even less-competitive than I thought they'd be. But I'm sure we'll turn our mid-round pick into another......Colton Gillies or AJ Thelen.

Granlund will have nightmares, he missed a wide open net.
Seguin is correct to complain about the icing call late in the period, he was ahead of the Wild players. It is scoreless after twenty minutes and the shots are 14-7 for the Stars.

The puck isn't in the net when the posts are on their moorings. It goes into the net after the posts are knocked off their moorings. How is that a goal in any way?
