Brown - seems like a speedier version of Palat with a lower cap. 107 goals in 9 years in the NHL. So now we have 2 veteran boat anchors ‘with Stanley cup experience.”Doesn’t address our need for secondary scoring at all. Hope to never see him in the top 6. grade C-
Allen - too unpredictable at this stage of his career. Term too long. Will be paying buyout penalties down the road. Kakhonen, Forsberg or Rittich would have been better cheaper options without term until Dawes is ready next year. grade D
Daddy - may give us the bottom 6 scoring we need and at a cheap cost. Or will he be Tartar 2.0? Grade C+

Fitz - don’t see how any of these moves really improve the team from last year. Grade C. Average, which is coincidentally what the team still seems to be….average

I don't know why, but I have this feeling that Fitzy is gonna pry Alex Tuch loose. I do not know why.

Embarrassing! FitzGARBAGE strikes again! So glad he didn’t get Zegras 🙄. Zacha for Haula? Brilliant! Hamilton getting $9 million per?! Insane! Palat at $6 million per? AWFUL! We need bottom 6 scoring! How has helped this team?!

These moves are marginal....at best. The move I would like to see is the removal of the twin albatrosses....Hamilton and Palat! I know it wouldn't be easy BUT, c'mon, Fitz, make it happen!
