June 30: Free agency 2010 begins...

Hockey: Bit of a late post, but everyone within the hockey world knows what has started... it's free agency 2010. I disagree with many, many people saying this is a pathetic pool, a shallow pool, or limited pool, etc. This is a great pool for teams looking for that extra something-something to elevate the rest of their team into the play offs, conference finals, cup champions. Nonetheless, I want to watch where the not-big-names go and to guess their impact.

The Canucks are still looking for another defenceman, even at 7 signed +2 in the minors. Vancouver needs centers. Madden is available now, and it'd be interesting to see what Vancouver will offer for him. He fits what Gillis needs: experience, 4th line center. Kyle Wellwood is a fan-friendly player, and ought to received some consideration.

It's going to be a fun day and I'm looking forward to writing about those role players going to new homes.
