Well when it comes to Buffalo's Free Agents, unless Maxim decides to take a ridiculous paycut (league veteran minimum?) I can't see him returning to Buffalo. Would be happy if the Sabres added to their Defense as I felt that was their biggest need last offseason, hopefully they address it this offseason.

It'd be weird seeing Lehtinen or Zubov leave Dallas after they've been down here for so long. I'd like to see the Stars keep Morrison, I liked his addition at the deadline.

Francois Beauchemin will be a very good pickup for someone.
Next up on my wish list:

1.) CCM Vintage or Semi-Pro Dallas Stars white, circa 1999
2.) Rbk Premier Edmonton Oilers blue and Nashville Predators alternate
3.) CCM 550 (or Vintage), Edmonton Oilers blue

Both sides are so sick of each other I expect Max to go to the KHL. If the Sabs could add a d-man and another pure scorer, I think they will be set. Instead, I think they will just bring up the young kids and keep under their self imposed cap. I don't know if that's going to cut it for next season.

I'm kinda surprised both he and Kalinin lasted as long with the team as they did.

Chelios won't be on the Wings next season.

Gotta figure some team out there is willing to take on his veteran leadership though, if he wants to continue to play.

Need a young starting goalie? Kari Lehtonen or Pavelec one of which will be available to be traded for according to Don Waddell.

"Waddell said it is likely that either Lehtonen or Pavelec will be traded."

What?

Anyways...The Pens re-signed Guerin and Adams! Jussi Jokinen's staying in Carolina, and if you're a Caps fan, they extended qualifying offers to 8 players! Hopefully Fehr and Gordon will be back.

Bouwmeester is now off the market. After having his rights traded to the Flames, today he agreed to a 5 year deal that averages 6.6 million per year.

12 years and a $5.2 hit to the cap. Not a bad deal, but I have a feeling that they are not planning on resigning Toews, Kane and Keith. One or more will be gone as cap casualties soon.

I didn't expect that one, logged onto TSN during one of my breaks at work and saw that and was quite surprised. Somebody is gonna be the oddman out in Chicago and I don't imagine that it is Kane or Toews.

Other recent free agent signings ...

G - Dwayne Roloson (former Oiler) signs with the Islanders - 2 yr/$5 mill

D - Scott Niedermayer (Ducks) re-signs with Anaheim - 1 yr/$6 mill

W - Colton Orr (former Ranger) signs with Toronto - 4 yr/$4 mill

W - Donald Brashear (former Cap) signs with Rangers - 2 yr/$2.8 mill

W - Mike Knuble (former Flyer) signs with Capitals - 2 yr/$5.8 mill



My thoughts:

- Roloson to Islanders for that much means DiPietro is probably still ailing.
- Rangers upgrade from Colton Orr to Donald Brashear, but I still can't forgive that hit on Betts.
- Glad to see Knuble move from that horrible orange to a nice shade of red.

Hal Gill to the Habs. Someone described him as a "stay at home" defenseman - i would call him a pylon. He was definately the player who most benefitted from the lax obstruction calls - slowest guy on the ice.
