Feels like a weaker free agent class compared to more recent years. Like there doesn't feel like one guy who everyone wants and holds up other players signing while teams bid on the one guy. So I'm expecting some pretty rapid deals coming out.
As a Devils fan, really not much in FA to get excited over, some depth signings maybe but any big splash we do will be through trades.
I feel like Orlov was the big name this year, and he signed on with the Canes pretty fast. Tears my soul apart as a Caps fan.
