Important to have this deal done now in order to assess how to move forward with Brodie and hamonic and the term commitment of whatever players they are looking to bring.

I've been checking the board obssessively today with the feeling that we are close to the flames bringing in a forward, but did not anticipate this announcement.

I wonder if we are a trade here within the next 10 days now.

Awesome progress for this guy ever since getting called out for being a little bit "unfit" a few years back

Good on you Rasmus "Swedish Meatballs" Andersson aka Meatballs

Great signing. He's good on the ice, but a pretty huge part of the dressing room too from all reports
Also brings the group that swagger and IDGAF kind of attitude that seems to be of short supply. His beaking is reportedly legendary

Well, guess we know where the Frolik cap space is going (after the rest of this season).

I really like this deal. I’m surprised he took six years.

Alright which one of you told me I was out to lunch when I suggested he would sign for this a few months back?

I'd say this is more the Brodie/Hamonic cap space (whichever one isn't re-signed).

I think you qualify the first two. I'd like to see a cheaper, two-year contract at around $1 million for Kylington; a longer-term, maybe four or five years at about $2.5-3 million, if possible, for Mangiapane, and a one-year cheap deal around the league minimum for Jankowski, if they decide to give him another shot.
I'd like to see Jankowski shot out of a cannon into the atmosphere.

Crazy how far he's come from being the disappointing but promising prospect most camps that routinely came to camp overweight.
