Rich

Apparently he has given some of his bonus to his parents. Nice thing to do for all the time and money I'm sure they put in throughout his childhood.

Also missing Burmi. There is a good chance Dano and Petan start with the Moose since they can be sent down. Replace Dano with Stafford and through Burmi down on the 4th line if you can't trade him. Lots of injury depth though.

Vanek to Detroit. 1 year 2.6M

Weircioch to Col 1 year 800k Justin Falk to Buffalo 1 year 650k

Joe Colborne to Colorado. 2 years @ 5M per.

Copp Petan Dano are all waiver exempt of our bottom 6 guys.

Copp doesn't have to clear waivers.

Don't really understand the Matthias signing. We already have a log jam in our bottom 6. I suppose competition is a good thing. Does this mean Copp starts with the Moose?

Chris Stewart to Minny 2 years @ 2.3M

Chad Johnson (G) to Calgary for 1 year @ 1.7M Jason Chimera to NYI for 2 years Ben Lovejoy to NJ for 3 years.

The Boston offer was likely just a rumour. It would be way above market value for Trouba.

Why would it mean we are going to lose Trouba?

John-Michael Liles to Boston 1 year

Didn't really expect Chevy to sign any of these bigger names. Expect him to make some signing later in free agency.

Staal is 3 years @ 3.5M That cuts his pay in half from last year! Nice pickup for Minny.

Troy Brouwer to Calgary 4 years @ 4.5M

The money isn't too crazy for any of these guys, but they are all getting term.

Okposo to Buffalo 7 years @ 6M

Louie Eriksson to Vancouver 6 years @ 6M per.

Backes is off to Boston 5 years @ 6M per.

Ladd is apparently 7 years @ 5.5M per with Islanders.

Helm just re-sined 5 years @ 3.85 per. Too much for Helm IMO

Who knows how Winnipeg fits in, but Kane isn't coming back to Winnipeg.

If he does get traded, will have to wait to see the return they get, but this trade is tipping more and more into Winnipeg's favour.
