Sad day, Marchment to the Stars at 4x4.5


For that money, they can have him. I'll take him as a dump next year tears of joy

What a very odd signing for them though-$13 ish mil left, JRob unsigned, and the Klinger spot unfilled.

The Burakovsky deal was pretty solid for Seattle. Don’t think ANA would have been in the running because of the term, but that’s a good player at a nice AAV. Low key like what Seattle is doing. Their build is a little behind ANA, but they’re pulling together some good pieces

Yeah, I don't hate the term on that at all. Didn't like their expansion draft, or their first offseason, but they're starting to get there.

Who? Lol. Decent AHL stats last year at 25 years old. 2 way deal this year, one way next year. Seems low risk & low upside

@csick-welcome to our Ducks fam convo. Since you’re a beauty, I’m curious on your Brown thoughts? Seemed like a guy to keep on that 3rd line.

Ryan strome. Better contract than I thought he’d sign, but still not exactly what I wanted. I guess I’m content? I mean, im not upset about it at all, but f*** I hate free agency tears of joy

I am not a very big fan of this honestly — I don’t get where he fits in for the future

He can play RW too which is a need. I could see us with a second line of Henrique McTavish and Strome next year. That said, not a huge fan of the term. 5 years for a 29 year old isn’t what I would’ve chosen. Hoping there’s minimal restrictions on trading the contract so we can move him in a few years if needed

Yoooo.
So the thing with brown is he’s a ufa after next year and wants to test the market and likely gonna get a 5 x 5 offer if not more. Also with signing Giroux, the 3rd line became Formenton-Pinto-Joseph so he was always gonna get traded for futures once Giroux signed

5x $5. It’s actually not horrible, at all.

That’s decent for a team with a ton of cap space . And he can play centre or wing. I guess lundestrom is 3C and McTavish starts on the wing for now?

I mean, as it stands, we’re a bottom 8 team without a doubt, but Verbeek has stripped it back and I’m not mad.

I guess for this next year having Terry Strome Silfvy and Carrick isn’t a bad 4 RWers

Depends where Rico plays I guess? Eakins usage is typically a big bogey, so who knows. Just as good of a chance that Strome plays 4th line minutes while Grant plays 30 a night tears of joy

I don’t hate it! I have an irrational dislike of Silf, but a Jones-Rico-Silf line would be hard to play against at IMO.

Maybe that’s what we need for this year…just piss every other team off while they beat us to a pulp

Maybe he is just a chip for a Matthew Tkachuk deal? 😂

I am not sure who I want to see added now

We still need another RD unless maybe one of the youngsters are going to take that spot?

Can't see Helleson being ready. I guess Vaak goes to the right side? Wouldn't surprise me if the dump we end up inevitably getting is Zaitsev, which, BOOOOOO!

If Vaaks goes to the right I think we still need someone on the left then, not a Mahura fan honestly

Fowler Drysdale
Benoit Vaaks
Mahura Shatty

I think we need one more defenseman, Hague SZN?
