[GDT] Happy Canada Day!! July 1st 2014 Free Agency is open for business #FAF

[OzSome]

David Legwand is still available. I don't mind him but not an overpayment and just a short term. He could be a third-line centre.

[djsFlames]

If we don't do anything else, I'm at least glad there will be 2-3 spots for a few of Gaudreau, Granlund, Baertschi, Bennett, Reinhart, Poirier, Knight, Arnold to occupy.

Flames were in on Stoner before he signed with the Ducks

lisa dillman @reallisa
Stoner said that there was some interest from Cgy, Ariz and Colo, etc...Said his mind was made up at 11:05

[StrykerSteve]

Just had a water fight with my wife and kids. I'm wet and cold. Would have posted this update on twitter but didn't want it lost in all the nhl transactions today.

[JurassicTunga12]

We done for the day?

Lol - you love your mock line-ups don't you? I'd say switch Hudler and Raymond. He's a better fit on the 3rd line than Hudler. But I expect the Flames to ship out one more forward and grab another fwd/dman through a trade. Just my speculation of course. Maybe not today but sometime during the summer.

Treliving says the #Flames still have interest in Paul Byron.

[Monahan23]

Pat Steinberg ‏@Fan960Steinberg 59s
Treliving says #Flames have made an offer to Byron and talks continue.

[StrykerSteve]

Flames have tendered an offer to Paul Byron.

[sureLoss]

Treliving says he might be close to some depth signings tonight.

Working the trade market.

[Monahan23]

Tremendous value at one year, $2-M for Blackhawks in Brad Richards. That's a July 1 deal you don't regret.

[JurassicTunga12]

Treliving says the Flames are close on some things and will continue to talk to teams/players tonight.

[JJ1532]

Good, pleased to see them offer Byron terms, because if we are done in the free agency market, then I think for 12 months, we could a lot worse than offer him a deal.

[StrykerSteve]

Leads me to believe the Booth rumour may have some truth to it.

[djsFlames]

Treliving says additional depth signings possible today.

[StrykerSteve]

Treliving confirmed that they simply didn't want to go to arbitration with Byron but would like to have him back.

[StrykerSteve]

Brad Richards for 1 year at 2M for the Hawks. That's a very solid deal.

[StrykerSteve]

Luke Gazdic re-signs with Edmonton.

[dammage79]

I think Wideman to Detroit is a real possibility.

Or something with him revolving around Ottawa and what Murray has said.

Maybe Wideman is gone by the end of the week.

I wouldn't have been behind the idea even last night but with all the talk today on the Fan saying that the Flames would love to move him out..... there's a distinct reality that he will be gone soon.

[StrykerSteve]

@JSportsnet: Tomas Vokoun has an offer in hand...will sleep on it, and make a decision tomorrow. #SNSigningSeason
