That Hall signing is weird. I genuinely don't understand it. Does he think he'll get better offers next year if he does extremely well again with an increasing cap? That seems extremely risky - especially if you don't know yet how you'll jive with your linemates/system...
Knew the team would win the Vesey sweeps someday.
As a society, we really need to do a better job of teaching statistics.Vesey!
(Wait, I just noticed that's Marty Biron. Hockey players are generally exempt from my expectations of a decent education, but my point still stands.)
Well:
"analyst", "academy"
The comments in response also speak to your point.

Pretty sure we're just going to flip him at the trade deadline
Good contract for Toffoli. Would have been fine with that had Benning left any cap space for him!
I heard Toews and the Blackhawks vets are unhappy with the trades? Where was that reported?
n/m forgot what I had seen it

Really strong possession player so he's good on the ice generally. Good on the PP. Micah Blake McCurdy loves him. Slowing down, though, and exiting his prime which would be my only concern with that contract going into his 30s. But he's good enough that it'll probably draw Red out of hiding.
But yeah honestly hockey people are fucking morons so there's not enough talk about how Benning gave up a lot to get him and then couldn't find the cap space to keep him.
Good on the organization. He gets a 92k signing bonus each year too to help his family.

That's a good contract for Toffoli.
The number of available RHD is dwindling. Hamonic and Vatanen seem like the most prominent remaining ones.
The Toews trade looks like a massive steal by the Avs.

Preds sign the dude who put them out of the playoffs
Either one of Jarnkrok/Sissons is out of here, or Poile is just splurging on bottom-six players since the Preds are obviously going to be in the basement this year.

Avs are getting scary as a team but what is going to happen next year? They need to resign Landeskog, Makar, Saad and Toews needs a contract this year as well.
Still unbelievable that MacKinnon took such a team friendly deal. The dude is making 3M less than Rantanen each year...

Calvert, Bellemare and Cole all come off the books next year which will account for Landeskog and Makar raises. Cole is replaced by Timmins/Byram on ELCs. Can fill the bottom six with smarter contracts than Calvert and Bellemare. Saad is probably a year long rental but if we want to keep him we could trade Compher or Donskoi. Also expansion is next year so will be losing someone to that.
They lost Krug so they've actually gotten worse nothing would imply they stayed the same.
