[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 4354331, member: 2012"] Okay, so NHl Free Agency came into effect on July 1st, and the number of high priced deals this year, so far, has been staggering. It's only the end of day three and the numbers are just insane! Here's a list of the free agent signings on TSN's website... [url]http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?id=11353[/url] Most of the really big deals happened on day one such as the New York Rangers signing UFA defenceman Wade Redden to a six-year contract worth $39 million and the Chicago Blackhawks signing UFA defenceman Brian Campbell to an 8 year deal worth $56.8-million. Eight goalies signed on with a new team on day one of the frenzy. Here's the list... [list][*]Washington signs UFA goaltender Jose Theodore to a 2 year deal worth $9 million. [*]Colorado signs UFA goaltender Andrew Raycroft to a 1 year deal worth $800,000. [*]Detroit signs UFA goaltender Ty Conklin to a 1 year deal worth $750,000. [*]Toronto signs UFA goaltender Curtis Joseph to a 1 year deal worth $700,000. [*]Chicago signs UFA goaltender Cristobal Huet to a 4-year, $22.4 million. [*]Tampa Bay signs UFA goaltender Olaf Kolzig to a 1 year deal worth $1.5-million (plus bonuses). [*]Ottawa signs UFA goaltender Alex Auld to a 2 year deal worth $2-million. [*]Buffalo signs UFA goaltender Patrick Lalime to a 2 year deal worth $2-million.[/list] Note that some of the money being thrown around is outrageous for players that really shouldn't be getting it. Case in point, the Toronto Maple Leafs signed UFA defenceman Jeff Finger to a 4 year deal worth $3.5-million a season. I had to ask myself "who the hell is Jeff Finger?" [/QUOTE]
