I like it, hope it doesn’t rule out going after another middle 6er though.

Overpaid what the hell 

[Mustache of God]

I don't like that we're shaping up to bring back the exact same team as last year. We need to upgrade the roster.

[Zamboni]

I don't mind him on the team, but who is leaving where we can improve? Not seeing that in the future if we resign last years team. 

[Huckleberry]

I fo not mind having him back.

[thewookie1]

While we didn’t improve, we certainly kept even overall. Plus he’s a handy extra forward at minimum

[Eleven]

This is reasonable.

The end-of-season roster, with a goalie, could have challenged for a playoff spot.  And I think some of the kids might be making the move down the thruway this fall.

Not a huge surprise. I guess Bjork's days are numbered.

[DarthEbriate]

Last year he was fast, a good forechecker, and provided more offense than our bottom 6 players of previous seasons. This is a good risk-free signing and he can float up the lineup temporarily, as needed. Hinostroza's a good 12/13 F if JJP and Quinn both make the team out of camp.

[LTS]

I like this and was hoping it would happen. He has speed and I think has the right character for the team. Those who are expecting big moves by Adams are going to be disappointed. Has has never indicated he wants to go the big splash route and so I am not expecting it.

The team is improving by itself just by maturing into their positions. It’s sort of the point.

Thank you. I took a self-imposed year away for many, many reasons. I think I jumped the gun by a few days but today seemed to be a good day to jump back in. I was a royal jerk in my last post on the forum and it was best if I stepped away for me and for the community.

Don't mind the signing, but I only like it if another "regular" is moved to bring in another top 6.

[GASabresIUFAN]

With Vinnie's return we are at 14 forwards including Bjork, Quinn, JJP and VO.  Currently the roster has 13 F (Vo not yet signed), 6 D (including Fitz) and 1 G for a total of 53.5 mill.  9 mill left to get to the floor.

I like this.

Hard working, good culture guy, reasonably productive. Easy cap fit, no term issues.

He'll make Peterka and Quinn and Krebs earn their ice time and can be nudged aside if they do.

And he pushes Anders Bjork one more body away from the starting roster.

I don't want it to happen but I feel buffalo would  Add that fun loving personality to the locker room

I like it...dude was a gnat on the forecheck and brings some secondary scoring
