NHL Offseason 2009: Complete Team-By-Team Transations Index

Pictured Above: Former Wild star Marian Gaborik attempting to move past Ranger Marc Staal

 

Wow, what a month for the NHL. Since the beginning of July, the past two weeks (16 days) have been some of the most active in free agency history.

An astonishing 202 new contracts have been negotiated and agreed on so far. Some of them were with the same team, but many required a roster change.

So, since most of us probably don't feel like going through the "free agent signings" list on nhl.com and charting every single movement into three columns for each team ("acquired," "lost," and "re-signed"), I've done it for you.

For all of you lazy hockey fans out there, here is your change to actually see a team-organized list of every move that's been made between the beginning of free agency (June 29) and now. Grades (up to the current point) are also included, although based solely on my opinion.

And, even though that this article was published on the 16th, I'm updating it every day, so continue to check in as it will never become "out of date."
