Freeman was on TV during an intermission of a Predators home game after the Legwand signing. Other then the fact that he looked nervous to be on TV, he seemed blown away at the contract Legwand had signed, to the effect of, 'wow that is huge amount of money' and as if he just realized what he is getting in to.
I cannot our ownership paying a huge price for Ovechkin unless Boots forces it, preparing for Kansas City.
