Boston, Detroit and Tampa have been the busiest so far. Montreal seems to have opted out of the process.

Idk what Steve Yzerman is doing with signing Holl. Him and Chiarot are going to drive me nuts this year.
Leafs took 10 steps backwards and got significantly worse. I know it's day 1 but I have concerns. This team is fucked.
We should tell Imama jokes.. Imama is so fat she can block the entire net by her self…
As a leafs fan I love that we got reveo and John killberge I still in Brad can make some more good moves revo is a big guy that is gritty and physical
People at Boston picked up sound terrible
Johansson could be the backup. Vasi plays almost all of the games anyway.
Bruins digging through the discount bin to try and field an actual team.
I would like Toronto to sign someone good.
Little shocked Ottawa went for Korpisalo especially for 5 years and 4 mil. Also looks like they're going for a Saint John Sea Dogs 16-17 reunion too, with Chabot, Joseph and Julien Gauthier there, grabbing Imama and Highmore today
I love how you organized the boards by division, it’s really interesting to see which teams get more attention than others
Say what you want about boston they didnt sign a bad contract today 🎉
Detroit also added Compher and Gostisbehere.
Toronto gets Klingberg.
This makes zero sense to me. How is Holl worth more than Mikkola, OEL or more than three times more than Kulikov. Florida got some sweet deal compared to the Leafs even though I think they slightly over paid for Mikkola. I would have to choose from all four of em Kulikov would be my pick and he is somehow the cheapest one.
As a Panthers fan I am a bit bummed out that they get Mikkola and OEL and get rid of Gudas. They could've saved money and kept Gudas and let one of the youngsters play to make the cap hit even. It makes no sense to me. Sure OEL and Mikkola likely make less mistakes but they have way more trouble getting the puck in the corners which is the most difficult thing for the cats.
Kulikov is a great signing and I have no problem with Stenlund as long as they don't limit play for Lomberg which they probably will (which is a huge mistake.) Sure he takes penalties but he is also one of the most effective forecheckers in the whole team.
Sabres bring back Tokarski and add another goalie in Cooley.
Why did Dorian feel it necessary to pay Korposalo That much per year for That Long? Did he learn nothing from the Murray and Talbot signings? Well….lets hope it ends the way it was for Craig Anderson and The Sens in 2011 when he signed a 4 year deal at the age of 30.
Go Sens Go!! GoSensGo! Go SENS Go!!! Go Sens Go!
that Reaves contract is hilariously bad.
BOKO IMAMA THE GOAT
As a leaf fan I hope that we get Bert and maxi domi that would be huge for our team
Legit i thought the name listed first for Detroit was Oettinger
Boko Imama is a hard working guy, wish he could have stayed in AZ but it was time to move on.
Having a Richard sign in Boston instead of Montreal feels… wrong! Is that Hell freezing?
I dont hate Korpi's contract, I think he has the ability to live up to it
thank god det god compher and ghost. their only meaningful signings aside from lyon…
The thing with Clifton is he played under Granato, let's ask Tage what Granato can do for ya. Sabres can afford to spend that for a year and it must be a surprise to fans that Buffalo can spend that and it be meaningless 😂
As a Bolts fan, sad to see Killorn go (especially after not keeping Colton). But he got a much more money than I was expecting, stays in a warm climate, and can mentor those young stars. He’ll get a great ovation when he’s back in Tampa
Just for the record, I have no problem with Detroit's signings.
LOOOOOOOOCH IS HOME
I think Korpisalo played at a 4 mil level this past season. Was great on a horrid CBJ team then did well for LA.
LA in the Atlantic..?..
Bad moves by Detroit.
Reimer…the marginal goalie who seems to have 9 lives. He's like left-hand relievers in MLB. They get jobs every year no matter how good or bad they might be.
The Justin Holl contract is a placeholder until Sandin-Pelikka is ready. A pairing with Chiarot might be funny to watch however!!!
1:39 Shannon "This is why we can't have nice things." Cat,"oh shit"
No hockey player with talent and taste wants to spend their career in a bombed out hellhole like Detroit. Compher and Copp are where good money goes to die.
missed a bunch from detroit
Holl 3.5 x3 is hilarious. He sucks I’m betting buyout eventually
Really dislike Reimer in Detroit
I love the Clifton signing for Buffalo. Grit. Will drop the gloves. Had a career season. 3.33 isn’t that much. Still gives the Sabres plenty of cap space to work with.
Summer of Pierre part 2
I’m thinking Clifton will move up to pair with Power and Johnson will be set in the 3rd pairing with stillman and lybushkin rotating
