So far i like what Buffalo has done. A good balance of speed, skill and size has been added to their lineup. Philly made some nice acquisitions but i see the mix of players possibly not gelling. Too many newbies, they might take a year or two to come to fruition. Washington is i think the new Philly, in the sense that everything looks great but then you have Neuvirth and Holtby, and you're hoping it works out. Honestly i think Holtby is their goalie of the future, he has Price-like poise. It just might take a while before they realize it. Florida's moves are in the realm of WTF. A bunch of decent talent all thrown together in a giant melange. Good luck with that. I hope they do well, but i doubt it.

All in all, it was actually a very interesting July 1st--lots of unpredictable stuff went down. Still can't believe Washington got away with that trade, that was really the news of the day.
