And hockeydoc, explain how the Devils would get an F? I like Brian Gionta, but 20 goals and 60 points doesn't warrant a $5 million a year contract. Rupp is easily replaced by Leblond, Clemmensen was a back-up and John Madden isn't worth nearly $3 million.
Exactly. People are treating this thread like it's the GM game. These signings always look great on paper. Remember how Drury and Gomez were going to get the Rangers the Cup? How they had the goalie and now they had the offense?

You know when you'll know who won or lost in free agency? When the Cup is lifted.
