Free Agency LHinks: Neil re-signs, Moen knocking at Islanders' door?
Lighthouse Hockey — ... all too well. Staying in Hawkland, Second City Hockey got Puck Daddy Wysh's thoughts on new Hawk John Madden. The Canadiens scored Mike Camalleri, but for five years, $30 million. They also picked off Devil Brian Gionta. The Leafs, of course, nabbed ex-Hab Komisarek, putting Hab-hating Leafs fans in a bind of cognitive dissonance. We even had a trade: Leafs dump Pavel Kubina to Atlanta for Garnet Exelby and Chad Stuart. That does it for yesterday's late ...

That changes now, as we take a look at what each of the Capitals' division rivals did this summer and whether we should expect them to be better or worse for it in 2009-10.

Flames Finally Dump Primeau
Matchsticks and Gasoline — ... somehow able to convince Burke to take Primeau. The return, however apparently nominal, is a bonus. Anton Stralman will turn 23 on August 1. The 6' 1", 200 pounder defender was a 2005 7th rounder by the Leafs. Although a late round choice, Stralman already has 88 NHL games under his belt as well as a couple of double digit goal seasons in the AHL as well. The battle for blueline spots on the farm just got a bit bigger. Colin Stuart (pictured above) was a part of the Garnet Exelby/Pavel Kubina swap earlier this summer. A former 5th ...

Avalanche By The Numbers: #2
Mile High Hockey — ... Leafs acquired Brian Leetch (that guy again!)? At the deadline in 2006, Klee was traded to the New Jersey Devils; #2 was in use (by either Dan McGillis, David Hale or Vladimir Malakhov...I can't tell who) and Klee was saddled with #8. Perhaps wearing such a different number was why Klee managed just 1 point in 24 games with the Devils (at least the 1 point came in the playoffs). After that, it's been all twos for KK - 2 for the Avs, 22 for the Thrashers (Garnet Exelby had #2) and then 2 with the Ducks and ...

NHL Offseason Winners & Losers: Eastern Conference
Canes Country — ... Orr to Toronto for 4 years, $4 million; Derek Morris to Boston for 1 year, $3.3 million — These two go under "Honorable Mention Worsts." To give any enforcer a four-year deal is absurd, even by Brian Burke standards. As for Morris' signing ... I can understand seeing Morris as an upgrade to Ward, but to pay him in excess of $3 million for next season doesn't make sense, especially for a cap-strapped team.

"We are supposedly sharing the pie with the league, but the players keep paying," Exelby said. "It's almost like the players are being held hostage."
