Episode 57 of the Hockey Free For All Podcast, the last 9 bazaar days in review. Topics include-

#1. From a very interesting draft that was that was just flat with no excitement, to the opening of free agency period, that was about as exciting as watching fly paper dry.

#2. How about trusting the organization that one is supposedly a fan of, that they knew what they were doing when they selected RH Defensemen David Reinbacker?

#3. It will be extremely interesting to watch the development of Ohio State Big-10 goalie prospect Jakub Dobes, Goal tending prospect Emmett Croteau who has been playing in Waterloo of the USHL and the 3 goalie prospects that the Canadiens drafted in the 2023 draft.

#4. The wait for a trade involving Joel Edmundson is over. The compensation value ended up being far less. Montreal got spanked hard on this player’s trade value.

#5. What are the reasons behind the signings of forward Philippe Maillet and Brady Keeper?

#6. The signing of Lias Andersson has the potential to be a very interesting experiment.

#7. Which players have left Montreal during free agency.

#8. Speaking of the Pittsburgh Penguins, what was the train of thought signing Tristian Jarry a new 5-year contract with an annual value of 5.375 million per season and a total value of 26.875 Million?

#9. Tristian Jarry’s and Brendan Gallaghers contract will haunt their organizations for years.

#10. Paul Byron’s contract has come off the books freeing up cap room.

#11. Does forward Denis Guianov end up in the KHL?

#12. Great move by the Canadiens getting left winger Rafael Harvey-Pinard signed to a 2-year 2.2 million deal.

#13. What’s going on with the New York Islanders, handing out 7-year contracts to Left Winger Pierre Engvall and defensemen Scott Mayfield? The 8-year contract to goalie Ilya Sorokin one can justify, but a 4-year contract to Varlamov?

#14. Has anyone from the N.Y. Rangers called the G.M. Pierre Dorion in Ottawa Senators and offered either left winger Alexis Lafrenière or right-handed defensemen K'Andre Miller straight up, one for one for forward Alex DeBrincat?
