[@HotTakeHockey]

thanks to everyone that supported the stream today! You all are amazing

[@brandonpuckrin7514]

With everything Nashville did yesterday, didn't they buy out Duchesne and Johanson and there's dead cap?

[@HotTakeHockey]

I wanted to add.. thinking about it more.. I said on Bleacher Report: Tampa should be seen as losers. Love the Guentzel deal, but losing Sergachev and Stammer and how they handled the Stamkos situation.... L on day 1 for them.

[@frankojudoka]

The Oilers retained Henrique and Janmark, and added Skinner and Arvidsson.

[@lancepayne4035]

Keefe is got a great team now , see what he can do with it . Good luck

[@wati8995]

Nashville is like a 2-3 year win. That’s gonna be an old ass team in 2 years.

[@nashvegas4476]

Those players have three years left

[@fitzgivesfits1]

Much like the Houston Rockets in the late 90s when they brought in old Charles Barkley, old Scottie Pippen. Great talent in their prime but too old to compete against the younger teams.

[@bowbear1048]

Go Preds 💛 thanks for covering this John

[@citysliquors3115]

SMASHVILLE WINNERS!!!!

[@aapoheikkila5542]

Easily

[@Sw4ggB055]

the stephenson contract is gonna look bad in 2-3 years

[@PAVEL-JAKL]

definitelly Nashville are winner in today trades..

[@wesleyrempel1438]

Buffalo is the biggest losers

[@Evasive2049]

I'm not overly excited for what Dallas did in free agency but considering there prob some bidding wars we couldn't get too deep in we did well. We also have players to resign like Wyatt Johnston, Thomas Harley and Jake Oettinger

[@pcgamerdad4251]

Lindholm was an overpay but he is solid in the playoffs same with Zadorov sucks to see them go. Canucks have just under 3 mil in cap space to make another potential move to get a puck moving d for their bottom 4 defense

[@markjancze4342]

Biggest loser are the Minnesota Wild, who are in the era of mediocrity due their GMs inability to move Parise/Suter. Absolutely handcuffed for another year. Everyone in Sota is just hoping the Vikings are good enough to carry Minnesotans until January.

[@wainber1]

With so much dead cap on the books before July 2025, it's hard to like the Wild's chances of seeing playoff action before that month.

[@TheBlazersfan22]

Nashville def won in my opinion.

[@jimjohnson9808]

Red Wings cap space was very misleading they started with 32Millon now have about 22Million. 15-17 million will be tied up with Seider and Raymond. Trades are coming for the Wings. They need another Right D. Holl and Petry don't cut it.

[@ricardofranco7461]

BOSTON is solid ,,,,,,new big bear on D

[@jceggert7163]

The thing with caps is they needed more goal scoring not more defense.

[@WalkerA92]

#GoPreds - we coming for Lord Stanley

[@WSPGV24]

❤

[@stevensimpson8231]

I'm pretty sure the capitals are 15 mil over the cap

[@HotTakeHockey]

It’s 13…and Backstrom and Oshie might be LTIR

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

Nashville signed old men 👴🏼👴🏼👴🏼

[@Sean-yt1jn]

like 90% of all free agents were 30+, everyone did

[@morganfay9787]

I think that The Maple Leafs are Winners

[@anza7522]

yikes

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

They winners interms of going all in win now window 4 yr window the 4 yrs of Matthews prime yrs. If u get 4 yrs out of Tanev and OEL they win 3 Rds or cup it would be ok. Its not much $4.5 million Tanev and $3.5 million OEL u can always trade OEL. Tanev u can always buy him out or LTIR if he injured yrs 4-6. Its not so bad who cares we have to make ballsy moves sick of the 1st Rd exits only cost the team money not player trades leafs have tons of money 🤑🤑🤑

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

@@anza7522🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@jeffreycairns767]

Not even close. Liljegren and Matt Murray signings were horrible, not to mention losing Edmundson. I'm not impressed at all

[@jerrypedrick6206]

Matthews will never win. He’s a regular season guy

[@charlesharrington3890]

I guess the Blues are losers? I would like to see Vladi back and signing of Buch. The Texiar trade I think will hold up well.

[@christianandersson4588]

Buffalo is the biggest losers. We need a 2LW, a 3C and a 3rd RW badly. We only added a new 4th line basically. Really underwhelming…

[@HotTakeHockey]

Agreed. I talk more about the sabres in the recent top 3 losers video too

[@seanorr2003]

Detroit drop the ball today very disappointed in Steve today 8.5 on 4 avg Goalies and did not improve anythings real Talbot maybe a little improvement but did LA let him go. Def is know better and did nothing up front besides kane for 1 yr drop the ball there too

[@stevensimpson8231]

Who did they miss out on that you would be cool with paying what other teams paid them? Stamkos for 8 mil a season for 4 years no thank you, everyone has been saying play the kids maybe that's what he plans to do

[@rozyander]

Big winner you for being here all day

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

No one touching Klingberg and Brodie 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@wainber1]

Brodie signed a 2-season US$7.5-million contract with the Blackhawks but I've yet to hear about whether Klingberg will find a team to sign him.

[@keirpatrick3045]

Ottawa - biggest loser again

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

Ottawa got fleeced by Washington Nick Jensen and a 3rd draft pick a 6-7 d man for a Chychrun a top 2 d man what is Ottawa doing ?🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@BZ3d]

First

[@user-sn8sw2vi8z]

Toronto also signed old men Tanev and OEL. 👴🏼👴🏼👴🏼

[@jerrypedrick6206]

Toronto goin nowhere

[@jerrypedrick6206]

And Berube is not a good coach

[@dreamwarriordiary5339]

Anyone determining winners and losers on July 1st might be a loser.

[@HotTakeHockey]

Tough when we can’t read. This is just to evaluate the decisions made on day 1. Touch grass ❤️

[@user-sw3ki2kk9s]

Wings not making the playoffs.

[@drillsey2446]

Vegas and the oilers are the losers of this off szn

[@JacksonSheppard-mq9gg]

So Jeff skinner Viktor arvidson connor brown and Perry for under 10 mill is a loss alright big dog

[@airdrifter9578]

@@JacksonSheppard-mq9gg Perry 🤣

[@JacksonSheppard-mq9gg]

@@airdrifter9578 Henrique arvidson skinner

[@donovanz1049]

You wanna fucking say that again?!! Have a look at what the oilers acquired now.

[@whodat3700]

Lol, the Oilers picked up 2 top 6 guys for 5 million combined a year and resigned important depth guys that helped them get to game 7 of the finals. You know nothing about hockey if you think Edmonton is a big loser here.

[@bocephus124]

5 million for bottom pair defense that makes Boston a loser along with to much for the center they got and length of both contracts bad

[@ryanpalmer4547]

LOL This guy is brutal.... IF he thinks leafs lost in FA? Wooooow

[@HotTakeHockey]

When did I say they lost?

[@jeffreycairns767]

They did

[@nickadams6537]

The Devils were the biggest losers today. Which isn't surprising because Tom Fitzgerald is the worst GM in the NHL. Not looking forward to the season.

[@user-kn3vn3rb4j]

Drury is right there as well

[@missstar219]

how

[@deanbalzer993]

The Winnipeg Jets suck. Cheveldayoff needs to be FIRED!!!!

[@manwell79]

Ducks the only team to do nothing on July 1st. 🫠🫠🫠
