Pick 5 or more pending UFA's. List their name, who they sign with, and for how much this summer. This is of course for fun. I don't care how believable or unbelievable.

Here's mine

1. Paul Martin - Dallas Stars - 3 years, 6.25 million AVA

2. Cody Franson - Colorado Avalanche - 5 years, 6.75 million AVA

3. Mats Zuccarello - Vancouver Canucks - 6 years 5.25million AVA

4. Justin Williams - Dallas Stars - 4 years, 6.25 AVA

5. Jiri Tlusty - Montreal Canadiens - 4 years, 4.25 million AVA

Very reasonable picks. Despite I don't think Williams will go to the Stars.
And I don't think Franson will get almost 7m per.

i agree he's not worth that much. but think, he's what 25. 26? and he's an rd, puts up good point totals and is 6'5. he's going to get paid big time way over what he's worth, just my opinion

5/6 years @ $5.75-$5.9 million

If these averages end up being true it would just further prove that you cannot build a team through free agency.

All these are crazy overpayment, I wouldn't be surprised if they all get it though.

Stickboi - I agree with you and it's why I set the bar high. Last yeas contracts that were given out in free agency were ridiculous. Bolland, Orpik, Engelland, Glass, Fayne, Pouliot. All these guys are going to see huge paydays if the hit the open market. Free agency is expensive.

Also this would have been more fun to check back and see if anyone made their own list. Whatevs though, criticism is cool too.

All pretty realistic. Martin will probably make his way back home to Minnesota though. He is up there in age and wouldn't be surprised if he wants to go back home and finish his career there.
