Tallon doesn't expect #FlaPanthers to be very active July 1: "There aren't a lot of top free agents out there."

#FlaPanthers say they were right there on Cam Talbot but figures #nyRangers wanted him to head out west and not in Eastern Conference

When asked what the #FlaPanthers offered for Cam Talbot, Dale Tallon spit "a lot. A whole lot." Sounds like he thought Panthers had it.

On if the Blue Jackets will be active in the free agent market …
I'd say they'll be active in looking at all options. They'll close a deal if they find a good fit. #CBJ https://t.co/CPVJk3imO3

On the Blackhawks …
I still expect Saad and Kruger to be re-signed before free agency opens on July 1. The #Blackhawks need to know how much money they'll have.

On the Lightning …
#TBLightning Yzerman said he won't go looking for a trade to cut salary, isn't close to one, expects relatively quiet July 1.
