The free agents are having a field day. One believes that money is scarce,but for hockey general managers there seems to be a lot of it available. Firstly Montreal Canadiens chose to change their cupboard with a complete new wardrobe. The Canadien free agents were at this moment allowed to sign elsewhere as non of them have been offered new contracts. To date Montreal has picked up through a trade with New York,Scott Gomez for Chris Higgins and has also picked up free agents Jaroslav Spacek,Hal Gill,Brian Gionta,Michael Cammalleri. This has been the busiest free agent signings by the Canadiens so far and the signings have not yet stopped for them. Marion Hossa has become a banker as he is now playing for his 4th team in just over 2 years. Again SHOW ME THE MONEY,is his mandate. Why would Mike Komisarek go to Toronto for a reportedly 500,000 dollars more per season then the Canadiens offered him unless it was for the length of his contract which is for 4 years? There are still many skilled free agents on the market as well as there will probably be more trades before the fires die down The new game in town is SOW ME THE MONEY.
