What an effing s show today is...

I'm actually happy we haven't chased down bad free agent signings

But slightly amused at the amount of depth signings

And also conflicted to see our guys leave

And also a bit conflicted seeing guys like Perron and Burakovsky go

I have no idea what to make of this all

I feel like my wife just asked for a divorce, and I'm left watching all the new meat walk in and out of what was my bedroom

Can you kindly creep all of his public profiles and information and report back?

Why? More money (at least same $$ in less time) and much closer. 90 minute flight or 7.5 hr drive...it's closer than CGY-VAN.

That would be insane.

Simply because he hasn't signed with anyone yet.

Would you??

He's hanging his hat on the Eastern Seaboard and the alternatives are drying up quickly...if NJD is the only game left in town then all of a sudden they've got some leverage to bring that AAV down to something more palatable.

Well, they could afford D'Angelo (who despite being a dick is a good player) but to get Gaudreau they'd have to not sign him (and have a D sized hole) and still get rid of JVR (which doesn't seem like it's happening).

<$10M AAV.

Please, pretty please, with a cherry on top.

LeBrun said it's Devils and Islanders remaining. Now with the CBJ offer, I guess them too.
