from Brian Compton of NHL.com,
Here's a look at 25 of the top unrestricted free agents still on the market:
FORWARDS | ||||
NAME | 2012-13 TEAM | STATS | SKINNY | |
Jaromir Jagr | Dallas/Boston | 45 GP 16-19-35 | Future Hall of Famer showed he still has plenty in the tank, helping the Boston Bruins reach the Stanley Cup Final after being acquired from the Dallas Stars. A tireless worker who is respected by his teammates, Jagr is a solid top-six forward who can help a team's power play. | |
Derek Roy | Dallas/Vancouver | 42 GP 7-21-28 | The 30-year-old center had six points (three goals, three assists) in 12 games for the Vancouver Canucks after being acquired in a deal with the Dallas Stars. Solid two-way player who can win faceoffs and kill penalties. | |
Mikhail Grabovski | Toronto | 48 GP 9-7-16 | Highly skilled offensive player didn’t see eye-to-eye with Toronto Maple Leafs coach Randy Carlyle and was bought out with four years remaining on his five-year contract. Wherever he lands, it’s imperative Grabovski is in a top-six role, where he’d be most effective. A three-time 20-goal scorer in Toronto. | |
Damien Brunner | Detroit | 44 GP 12-14-26 | Has 44 games of NHL experience after signing as a free agent with the Detroit Red Wings, but the 27-year-old Swiss wing is coveted by several teams and would fill a role as a top-six forward. Had nine points (five goals, four assists) in 14 playoff games, helping the Red Wings reach the second round. |
