Apparently Friedman has Bertuzzi,Teravainen and Martinook going to Chicago
- captainserious


To be accurate, those are Friedman's educated guesses. He hit on Bertuzzi, so maybe the other two will sign here too. And I hope there is a RD on the shopping list.

Guentzel 7 x 9m with Tampa Bay.

Reinhart 8 X 8.63 with Florida.

I like Reinhart more than Guentzel, but I think both of these contracts will age like milk.

And here's the caveat:

• Here are some educated guesses on what we could see Monday. Don’t take them as gospel, the rumour mill drank a case of Red Bull on the weekend.

Not saying all of these are happening.
But he nailed Bertuzzi.
And looking at Teravainen and Martinook,at least tells you the type of players he's looking at and willing to throw some cash at

@TheFourthPeriod
Devils are going to add a top-six forward. One name to look out for: Jonathan Marchessault. Lots of noise there.

That makes sense for the Devils.
Not sure how much cash and term they can throw at him though.

That's why he was prepared to give up next years #1 unprotected to get Demidov, he thinks they'll be better and won't be picking in the top 5 or 6

In the race to sign Stamkos
#HockeyX #NJDevils

So the Devils are going after Stamkos or Marchessault?

Indeed. Wasn't taking a shot, just wanted to give the full context in case people thought these were expected to happen.

Stamkos will regret not going back, if that is what he decides. At age 35 a Malkin Contract was 6 x 4 24 mill.

Lighting paying the same over longer period of time. Not going to hamstring the club with big AAV like Pitt has done with Letang and Malkin.

Stamkos offered 3 x 8 from Tampa. We all know he is done in 3 to 4 years.

If he does not sign, they will add Jeff Skinner for a couple million.

Would love to get TT and Martinook along with the Bertuzzi signing. All of them drive possession, TT is easily the most dangerous of the bunch. Martinook is one of the best penalty killers in the league too. I’m surprised Carolina isn’t keeping him because Brindamour had to like his game.

Agree with you on Bertuzzi. Not a fan but hope he doesn't suck.

That Guentzel money and term is preposterous. Desperation is a stinky cologne.

Like Bertuzzi, Martinook would be a good get. Not that sold on TT.

Agree on Martinook and disagree on TT but is there a different guy you'd prefer? Still lots of guys out there so who's on your short list?

DeBrusk, Blake Lizotte, Henrique, Tarasanko. I think the Hawks have several TT types on the roster and in the pipeline, I think he is duplicative.

If it is TT, I am not upset, still an improvement over what they had.

Bob McKenzie speculating Alec Martinez will sign here on a one year deal.

More vet presence on the back end.

Can he/does he play the right side as a lefty? Otherwise, what's the point?

WOW, thought he would go to Toronto. Way to go KFC. i don't understand Toronto's fixation with Tanev at 34 to give him a 6 year deal? he is injured just as much as Murphy.

He plays both. Where he will excel is on the penalty kill.
