kadri's not even close to being worth that much. Lupuls contract is fucking that team over. Franson wants 4+M per year

Lupul has been over PPG in the last two seasons. He's actually earned his keep.

It's a bit insulting Clarkson earns almost as much as he does.

owait their caphit is actually the same lmao

Lupul hasn't played an 80 game season since 2006/2007 and has played a total of 159 games in the past 5 years. You really think he is worth signing to a 5 year deal worth over $26M?

Been any word on Damien Brunner?

I've been curious as to where he is going to land and haven't been seeing anything, offseason is quickly coming to an end.

Weird how there are so many NHL calibre free-agents left with only a couple weeks left til training camp and a less than a month before the actual season starts.

To name a few...

- Brunner
- Raymond
- Boyes
- Hainsey
- Gagne
- Cleary
- Whitney
- Prospal
- LaRose
- Morrow

and a whole bunch of a guys who could probably crack a team with a good camp or at least be scratches to start.

Although Miikka Kiprusoff is expected to retire, nothing has been made official yet.

"We've had conversations," said Flames GM Jay Feaster. "We'll have a resolution before the start of (main) camp. But it's not something we're prepared to discuss in one way or another right now." Assuming Kiprusoff retires, Karri Ramo and Joey MacDonald are expected to battle for the starting gig in 2013-14.

my keeper team now waits patiently
