Thorntons an UFA? He's 38, on the back side of a career that he never won anything in. Sounds like perfect fit for an 8 million deal for 15 years LOL. Unless there is a franchise #1 elite defenseman that you can build around for a decade or so then I'd not be interested in any of FA's other that signing Larkin, Mantha and AA  |

Overall, not interested in this lot.
Wings need young players. Okay, maybe a guy to fill an obvious hole for a couple of years while the young d-men get ready.
Not looking to sign anyone more than 2 years and usually these guys want 5 or more.
A solid draft just happened. Build on that. Pick up the odd player for a low cost.
Do not kill your cap at this point in the year.

www.nhl.com/news/top-free-agent-nhl-goaltenders/c-299325876So it appears that the Wings are looking at Free Agent goalies. It won't be Mrazek according to the article. Howard I think is 35 so he can't do 60 plus games. Wings need to develop their two drafted young goalies and that usually takes 3 to 5 years. Don't see too many 19 year old keepers around. A goalie free agent is something I agree that the Wings should do. Everyone else, not so much. No point in getting into a bidding war when you aren't close to winning the cup.

Yzerman has never won anything at the GM level. I think someday he might but his players are aging and the window of opportunity will closed and he'll have to rebuild. |

Meanwhile we land Green, which I'm OK with. Anyone know if he has an NTC? I hope not. We probably need to realize Holland needs to put butts in seats and help pay for the shiny new building. Wonder how that's impacting what happens behind closed doors now?

So we have Green back. Looks like Vanek is coming back and Bernier is our other nm this year. Still think Kenny has one or two moves up his sleeve, Faulk is still being mentioned as a possible new D, sure wish Kenny could move 2/3 out as well.

Vanek 1 yr at 3 mill...not bad but I'd rather have the 3 mil and a younger player fighting for a spot. He'll be a positive for the kids though until he's preventing one who is better than him and much cheaper than him from cracking the lineup Green at $10.75 for 2 more years? Nope and I sure as hell hope there isn't an NTC tied to it. |
