So what are the odds that he has something worked out and is just waiting for a team to clear cap space?
I can't believe that a player of his caliber is still unsigned, this late into free agency. Unless he's trying to get 8+ per year and on a long term deal, you'd have to think SOMEONE would have signed him.
I think personally, Seattle > Colorado > NYI are my top three landing spots.
Anyone else?

Would you be surprised if the Islanders had signed three or four guys and just not announced it yet? Seems like it would be par for the course that is Lou Lamoriello.

Anyone else? I doubt it's Seattle --> Why would they be waiting to sign him? I doubt they need to clear cap to do it. Colorado --> Maybe, I can only imagine the delay is cap related. NYI --> I read this as well, just seems a bit weird to sign another Top 6 center when Barzal and Nelson are there unless someone is moving to the wing. I have no good guesses. Maybe Colorado since he may want to take another run at a cup? Colorado's 2nd line C without him is weak. |

As of July 17, 2022, the Kraken have $9.86 million available for the 2022-23 season. They do need to sign Morgan Geekie, Kole Lind, Carsen Twarynski and Cale Fleury." They may not have as much cap space as folks think. |

Fun Fact:
Seattle's highest paid player for the 2022-23 season (as of today) is Grubauer ($5.9M).

Of COURSE it's Calgary that makes the mistake in signing Kadri to 7 years at 49 Million.....wtf are these GM's thinking in giving out massive contracts to guys that run them up to 38+ years old? Shit signing.

Calgary. 5 years at 6.5. Bank on it. Well I was close. Seven is excessive but agents are smarter than GMs. LOL ain't that the truth! FFS I could be a better manager than 75% of these clowns and at half the cost ;-) |
