H_T_L Posted July 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 Alzner likely starts as Weber's partner. Froese to the farm and Holland fights it out with Mitchell on the 4th line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsisme Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I would have signed Gagner at the same he signed in Vancouver... too bad :/ Alzner's cap hit is really not bad imo. I don't think he's a good fit really but its what they want. In a vacuum its an okay contract, I was expecting much worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Habberwacky Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 I think some of these signings mean Hudon and a few others are less likely to be in the minors. It has to be tempting for Bergevin to clear a big salary like Plekane with a a trade, but the list of players to spend money on is going down fast..

eldag Posted July 1, 2017 Report Share Posted July 1, 2017 so let me get this straight ..... if Markov gets his $6MM and Radulov gets his $6MM that's $16.6MM including Alzner and added to these ham and egger signings I believe we are flat up against the cap or slightly over. And that does not account for the $5MM raise that Price wants for next season nor allow for Galchenyuk's re-signing .......... I guess somebody is not going to get signed ............
