Not to beat a dead horse here, but 4.5 mil for komiserak seems pretty steep. If he can return to the Komi of 08 he could end up earning that money. And now that he has a real 'enforcer' in
Colton Orr, maybe Komi will be more effective.
Thats alot of iff's
Another interesting team was the Bruins. The only guy the signed was Begin (other then there own RFA). They lost a few fringe players (Montador and Hnidy will be replaced by some guys form Providence most likely Boychuck) but kept the team mostly intact.
Rask will be a HUGE upgrade from Fernandez ( Tuukas only game was a 33 save shutout of the Rangers).
The big question is Kessel. If they keep him win, if they trade him Im sure there gonna get something of value so its winn either way.
They didnt trade Savard or Bergeron (both rumered to go) and have there best players still here (Chara and Thomas) as well as the coaching staff and what seem to shaping up as a pretty good front office in Chiarelli, Neely and
Don Sweeney.
Id say the B's are winners.
see i didnt even mention you-know-who.
