I have this pit in my stomach telling me Doan might be here next year. Ugh, please, hope I'm wrong

It could be Patrick Sharp too. He can take draws/has played center before, and is a right shot.

#Canes GM Ron Francis says the team has had contact with free agents, including Justin Williams. No calls with Jagr, though.

Brind'Amour on Williams: "I've been pushing hard to get Justin. What he can do for us in this locker room is what we need."

"Capitals re-sign defenceman Dmitry Orlov to six-year deal." I thought the flames could get him as the 5th D at half that price but that is a lot.

I've looked through most of the top 50ish forward UFAs that could fit their criteria and aren't sure who they could be looking at as a RHS who can take draws outside of Williams (fits the bill perfectly), Sharp (doesn't take as many draws as he used to but is ok) and maybe a random centre with a RHS like Tommy Wingels.

Stafford doesn't take draws.

Can he say that before July 1st? Or is it okay with the negotiation window open?

Patrick Sharp would be locker room cancer. No thanks.

I think he can, UFA's can now negotiate some time before July 1st but the deals can not be announced until July 1st.

I have heard that Cowen might be of interest for the Flames in the 5th d-man.

Ryan Rishaug @TSNRyanRishaug
J. Cowan is fully recovered from hip surgery and feels the best he's felt in 3 yrs acc. to agent R. Valette. 6/7 tms have expressed interest

Yeah, Cowan doesn't interest me at all unless it was a dirt cheap #7 type to prevent our prospects from being scratched

Cowan is a decent reclamation project but if he is #5 that is concerning if we lose a Dman to injury.

Dave Cameron getting a player he wants/knows??

Had that one stellar season and is a left shot which would work well with one of Bartkowski, Andersson, Kulak, Witherspoon.

Interesting.
