Hell yeah.
Band is back
Awesome deal!! Wish it was longer than one year because he’s a fantastic depth piece, but I’m super happy to have him back.
Honestly one of the free agents I wanted us to re-sign most. Dude’s a workhorse!
Super happy to have him back, he fills his role well. Wish we could scrape someone off FA to come into our top 6 but it’s looking a little weak, unless Berggren or Kasper are gonna blow some doors off
Perfect, the exact type of player and contract that should be in the bottom 6
Good energy, can chip in a few goals, relentless forecheck
Fish is back baby
Fishyyyy
I like it. Played with heart. Good signing
Fuck yeah!
Good move, good price.
Wow. Thought he would get more and a little term.
I like this a lot.
1st good signing of the day.
Only good signing of the day
Do you people honestly believe we are a better team than we were the last day of the season?
Ffs
Good stuff
Fisch! Love this guy. Haven’t been this attached to a 4th liner since Luke Glendening.
2nd liner Fischerman right there
FUCK YEAH
Fuck yes. We needed to at least keep one locker room guy.
A few great clutch plays last year from a dude you love to cheer for. Let him do all the post game interviews and watch the fan base grow.
Favorite signing of the day, loved the Copp-Ras-Fish line
Fuck yeah
Everyone hates when I do this but whatever
Cat Larkin Razor
??? Compher Kane
Ras Copp Fischer
Fabbri Veleno Berggren
Maybe one of Danielson Kasper or Mazur gets that 2nd line spot? Maybe Berggren moves up and Kasper to 4th line??
There’s absolutely no downside to this. Even if one of the kids steals his roster spot right out from under him, that contract can be buried in the AHL with zero cap impact. Win-win scenario.
Great signing.
LETS GOOOO
I wanted this bad. Now to sign Berger and Tarasenko and consider our offense ready for the season.
Absolutely love it
Nice, wanted him back
Kinda figured Mazur or Kasper would make him expendable. Like the guy just hope this doesn’t interfere with prospects.
Hell yeah.
Fuck yeah boys we’re gonna be so good next season
Not the biggest fan of fischer but a one year deal at that price you can’t beat I’ll certainly take it
Wish it could have been a bit longer deal, but I’ll take it. Dude is a solid grinder.
Best signing of the day imo
No complaints about that at all. He’s a replaceable guy but gives his all.
Bottom of the analytics for the team – I never understood what others saw in his play last year because it wasn’t impressive on paper and never passed the eye test (for me) either. Unfortunately, a slot that should be taken by a rookie. His hard effort shifts almost never resulted in anything but a lost puck and opportunity. There were moments, but few and far between 🤷♂️
🥳🎉
Nice, Fischer was playing above expectations last year
Fucking rights.
WE ARE SO BACK
Anybody who drops the F bomb in a live-air interview deserves at least a milly.
Really glad we didn’t lose this guy.
