I think Roszival is there just because he's so bad that they can pay him very little money to have more to get bottom six guys. His worth is in that he's worthless, somehow.

Inevitably, there will be injuries and he'll end up on the second pairing and give up a ton of goals again.

I wouldn't be surprised if the penguins don't sign a single FA of note today, really. They keep almost their whole team going into next season.

Sure Eriksson okay. His best years are gonna be when we hella suck then he'll be an anchor. We're still garbage.

It's a bad contract but it's nowhere near the worst handed out today and that's basically the best thing we could hope for out of Benning.

Well they can't, unless they trade somebody. They have like 1 million of cap space. Cullen would be the only one I figured they'd go for and that's assuming he's okay with signing the same deal he was just on.

600 million for 300 years? I'd hate to see the recapture penalty on that.

edit: 600k/300k makes more sense I suppose.

Way to go Benning!

I actually don't hate the Eriksson deal. Basically all our old veterans will be gone in a year or two and I don't really want an entire team built of 20-30 year olds (especially as we don't have many good ones!) If the Sedins leave in 2 years it's not like the extra few million are going to matter anyways.

signing bonuses doesn't mean front loaded. its buyout proof because there's no discount buying out a signing bonus, just salary

Sounds like the Blackhawks are buying out Rundblad. It actually costs them a total of 250k more over the next two years in salary cap to buy him out rather than bury him, so I guess they REALLY don't like him.
