Signing period starts at 12 p.m. ET on Oct. 9

And near the top of the list is...

https://www.nhl.com/news/taylor-hall-will-become-unrestricted-free-agent/c-319377088

Let's get Hall on a short-term, two-year deal. He wants to win and he can do it here. 

Move Wheeler to centre for next year.

And, add two RHD. One near the top of the price range and one near the middle. 

I hope parades are allowed next July/August. 

Hall's a great player. Not always the best attitude, but he definitely wants to win and is extremely talented. I read something yesterday that said Paul Stastny could end up back in Winnipeg...that is something I would REALLY love to see. 

Shattenkirk ($7mx2) and Turris or Galchenyuk ($3.5mx2?) would be my main targets - this team needs experience and leadership

Shattenkirk would transform our powerplay instantly 

Other notables - Borowiecki would be a nice 3rd pairing with Pionk

I'd give Buff a call again for a one year contract and playoff run... he is a pretty random guy and had a full summer of fishing to think about things

Turris has attitude problems...no thanks to that guy. Buff is done.

Taylor Hall in a Jet Jersey? Please make it so. I'll be the first to buy the Jersey and parade it around downtown Edmonton. 🙂

Please do. Can you make sure you tell him there's a bit of a rush on this request.

Yeah I was just kidding about buff 

didn’t know Turris had attitude - my Sens fan buddy thought he was great

Madison Bowey is UFA - that would be a great signing...

the more I look at the FA targets board, the more I think I'd like Matt Dumba on the Jets. I think he could really help fill a hole...

well it's now 11 am central time ANYTHING GOES! 

RiderFans has put an offer in front of me but I'm not biting.

There's no money left...

$10.5 million in space for Roslo, Appleton, Harkins, Samberg, Heinola (or Niku) - that's about $6.5 million

$4 million puts us right at the cap to start the year... Dumba won't sign for $4m

Matt Dumba also isn't a free agent. (https://www.capfriendly.com/players/matt-dumba)

I never claim that Noeller is right about anything...

Noeller didn't say he was an FA, you did.

There won’t be any dental plan with that contract, so I’d walk away. 

Beaulieu has re-signed with the Jets.

Read the thread before you post.  

Beaulieu coming back is a huge blah...  we're going with the same D-core that got absolutely smashed by Calgary

I can read, thanks. You have reading comprehension problems, though.

Noeller never said to sign him as a FA. The Jets were linked with a trade for him and Minny were shopping him.

On a depth, 3rd pairing, LHD. Seems appropriate. 

This is important.
