He's an injury prone streak scorer but I love that guy for some reason. He just looks like a good soul.

Numbers here:

David Jones with Colorado is 4 years, $16 million ($4M per)
Matt Hunwick also re-signed with Colorado - 2 years, $3.2 million ($1.6M per) - surprised they'd keep Hunwick given his questionable play and the number of good young d-men that do the same thing as him with the potential to do it way, way better...strange signing...

Way too much money in Jones, since he's 27 and only scored over 20 goals twice I believe? This year and last?

Right and right. For a guy with roughly the same PPG average for his career as Pascal Dupuis and not half of the defensive ability, it seems like a healthy price tag to the say the least.

I woulda liked David Jones on the Pens (Malka, maybe he'll do a little better for us in fantasy this season?!) but not for 4 million. Too streaky, too risky. But, if he can get his stuff together and put up 25 or more consistently good for Colorado

Yea I'll have him as a late round target again this year. Especially with his new raise, he's going to get more pp time at least.

Would have liked to see the Penguins go for Jones in free agency, but considering he makes $1 million less per season than Neal it is a pretty easy call who has a better contract.

I think this is a HUGE F up on the Crapitals part. the only reason I can see doing this is if you think OvenChicken's finally ready to step up and act like a real grown up captain. it's well known that Knuble's been the real leader of that team for awhile now.
for the right price I'd be happy to have Knuble now.

I think Knuble is too old and too slow now for this system that is unwilling to adapt to the players it has.

@DarrenDreger "Tom Barrasso will join Paul Maurice on Magnitogorsk bench. Big hires by KHL!" So much for Tom being a scout for Hurricanes.
I read earlier this week that barrasso was reassigned as a scout... now off to Russia.

& if bob mckenzie says not true, well then.

Knuble is really, really slow and old and would be a terrible fit on any team looking to play an uptempo style or aggressively forecheck. Unless you want to get rid of DB, he's got no place at all on the Pens. That goes for a lot of other NHL teams for that matter who emphasize a hard skating aspect to their game.

Knuble? He's finished, come on...he's slower than Tangradi...his NHL career is all but over...the Capitals are just throwing garbage out by not re-signing Knuble...

I still can't believe Barrasso was a goalie coach...it seems weird, the thought of him mentoring a younger goalie...

Of course, soon as job was taken from him, he bolts...why didn't he just resign from the organization when they changed his job title?

Adam Deadmarsh steps down as Avs assistant coach in favor of Tim Army. Deadmarsh stepped down because he's still dealing with post-concussion syndrome...he played his last game in December of 2002 and is still feeling effects to the point that is physical activity has been almost totally nullified (from his last NHL game). Scary stuff.

Wow...bad news. He was a good player who played hard....He got beat up in a fight with Jovonovski pretty good that did not help the cause I remember...

Hot Stove said tonight that Ondrej Pavelec has a big offer on the table from the KHL evidently...that would really gut the Jets if he decides to play in the KHL, he was terrific this year. Also said the Canes were after Jordan Staal, but there's already a huge thread about that that I don't want to look at...

Minor bit of housekeeping here...we have the rights of Brad Stuart going to San Jose from Detroit for Andrew Murray and a conditional 7th in 2014.

Murray is a decent 12th or 13th forward, Sharks have plenty of them. I believe the 7th is activated if Stuart signs. Stuart wanted to return to the west coast according to some.
