Tin Connolly to Toronto... 2yr/9.5 mil

[RGM81]

Anthony Stewart signs with the Canes - 2yrs/$1.8M. He would have been good in the Habs' bottom six. Ah well.

Tin Connolly to Toronto... 2yr/9.5 mil

The numbers are in for the annual salary to be paid to Brad Richards on his 9-year contract: $12m, $12m, $9m, $8.5m, $8.5m, $7m, $1m, $1m, $1m.

No, no cap circumvention happening here.

And you called Ehrhoffs deal bad?

At least he only makes 1 million in. The last 2years

[bojohnson]

Jets sign Rypien, 1 year, 700,000.
not bad




The Winnipeg Jets have signed another familiar face – Rick Rypien, who returns to the organization that first gave him a shot in pro hockey.
The former Manitoba Moose centre has signed a one-year deal with the Jets worth a reported $700,000.

My thoughts on day 2:

Vokoun in Washington gives them very solid goaltending.

Toronto really overpaid for Connolly!!

Gagne in LA - they are very strong with Gagne and Mike Richards now on side.

I think Selanne would look good in a Flames uniform and give them some needed help in a lot of areas.

Brad Richards as a NYR -no comment

I think I am gonna be sick, Connolly for 2 years for 9.5 mil.
Nice way to blow any extra money. Leafs blow when it comes to offering contracts. I bet Tim wont even hit 30 points this year, and we will all know why. Cause he's making the money so he wont care

I think that's a great signing for Washington (Vokoun) 1.5 Million for 1 yr? Great deal I think
