A Carolina Hurricanes blog with occasional news about the rest of the NHL.
The
Rangers landed TWO of the marquee free agent forwards within 12 minutes of one another.
First they signed Scott Gomez to a seven-year $51.5M contract.
Then they turned right around and won the Chris Drury sweepstakes with a five-year, $35.25M contract.
Un-freakin-believable.
Added to that, the
Flyers added
SteveJASON "own goal" Smith and Joffrey Lupul from
Edmonton in exchange for Joni Pitkanen and Geoff Sanderson.
Say hello to the new Atlantic Division!
Now that Briere and Drury are gone, and the marquee FAs have been gobbled up (don't forget about Jason Blake signing with the
Leafs), what the heck are the Sabres gonna do? Put the weight of the team on Drew Stafford's shoulders?
