Doesn't seem like the Kraken are going to take on a lot of big contracts. Eberle seems like the big get from the leaks I've seen.

They did not take Holtby from the Canucks like I wanted. Boo

While I'm slightly annoyed it literally all got leaked, I am somewhat relieved I don't have to watch this tonight now and can do other things.

Tanev is a fucking plug who isn't worth anywhere near what he's being paid and you should be celebrating the fact Seattle is alleviating you of the final 4 years of that deal.

Yeah, they took Lind from the Canucks. Decent potential but has played less than a season.

Not to seem like I'm going all "revisionist" history here but Seattle's team so far does legit seem worse than Vegas' did, especially with not taking an actual proven goaltender.

Idk if they're intentionally not leaking side deals.

But they are in the Pacific division so I'd say there's a 99% chance they make the playoffs. Vegas should probably be the only team considered guaranteed to finish above them in the standings.

But also FUCK going against that defense lol.

They are technically an expansion team... it is fine. I hate them but whatever, just more reason to hate.

Bergevin basically admitted Shea Weber is getting LTIR'd.

Also Edmonton is going to give Zach Hyman an 8-year deal in a sign-and-trade with the Leafs HAHAHAHAHA

Seattle is trading Pitlick (who they took from Arizona) to the Flames.

For the 13th-overall pick, a 2023 2nd, and Robert Hagg.

Literally one of the worst trades I've ever seen, Ristolainen is fucking awful.

Saw that.

Unless they have indication that OEL is gonna be a dominant force again this is weird.

Granted they are getting something for 3 players they would likely have gotten little for otherwise. I'm not familiar with Garland, is he any good?

Other notes...

Price had successful knee surgery and should be fine to start the season.

Hall re-signed with the Bruins for 4 years 24 mil.

Wow, he's a good player but idk about 9+ mil per season good. He won't be their new Duncan Keith if that's what they are thinking.

At least the Pens aren't Chicago?

Yeah, referring to the Lightning just winning back to back and Detroit winning back to back in 97 98. Pens won it back to back 16 17. Maybe I just heard that wrong though.

He's not $9.5M until he's 36 good. Don't forget he's on the final year of his current contract so that extension doesn't start until he turns 28.
