Jagr gets $3.3m...wow.
Is that Connolly for real? What a terrible idea. That guy is one hit away from retirement.

Connolly deal was posted by a fake Dreger account, it is false.

Well Mittens was on TSN's
All Free Agent Team
Wow 3.3M for Jagr; hard to believe the other teams rumored to be in the running were offering him that or more.

But RDS did report it...
I'm guessing they failed then. Nothing new.

D'Agositini's deal with STL is two years, $1.5M and $1.8M.
That could end up being a very good deal for them.
I'm not sure if Connolly is for real yet.

Hmmm...maybe he did sign with Dallas, but there's no way that those numbers are right unless they are insane.

I don't know what would be more realistic, Tim Connolly getting 7M per or an 8 year contract. Probably 7M per.

Like I said, that was a massive fail by RDS.
Not the first time they do something like that. "Professional" my ass.
Gotta stick with TSN2.

I just realized that a whole bunch of D-bags are going to be wearing Philly "Jagr" jerseys. UGH.
I'll only post stuff verified by McKenzie, Russo, or Dreger.

Jovocop 4 years.
See a trend in Florida, 4 years? Not affecting the 2nd contracts of their prospects yet to reach the NHL. Gudbransson/Huberdeau/Howden would be up in 3 years if they make the NHL this year though.

Either way he'd have to have some incriminating photos on whatever GM signed on the dotted line.

Everyone knows I'm a Jovo supporter, but Jovo on a 4-year deal. He's 35 and been severely banged up last few years. What the heck?
Anyone else think Tallon forgot about the cap rules for 35+ players?

The amount of money being thrown around for mediocre players is crazy.
Please don't overpay!
