I think a Holl buyout is definitely possible. Copp I think will be on the team at least one more year.

Really wanted Hage, but happy for him that his Dad was a big Habs fan. His Dad died earlier in the year and it was something to feel good about feelings wise. But, damn, getting Demidov and Hage is scary good for the Habs. Wanted that offensive center for forever. Maybe signing Stammer to get production. Who knows???

Another banger fellas 🔥💯👍

Great show as always.
Getting stamkos would be a huge boast to our offense.
Trouba would be a great 2nd pairing guy with edivinsson
Also can’t the wings just waive pretty and holl and call it a day with those 2?

Petry does not cost much - most of his salary was retained by Shitsburgh, Holl definitely but the buyout window has passed now. I can't believe it - i can only believe the reason he was not bought out is - Yzerman just signed him for 3 yrs - a year ago today - never understood it . I definitely want Trouba - Red wings badly need physical presence.

Please tell me there is going to be another video to explain why today sucked and confused by most of these signings

Can't wait for your follow-up video regarding free agency. If Evan thinks July 1st will be Christmas, then so far, Wings fans have received a lump of coal.

[@evansabourin8493]

You are correct sir. I'm very underwhelmed at this point.

Love Chandler Stephenson, also. That would be beautiful

Not at that price or term
