2015 NHL Free Agency Open Thread

Will the Jackets be active?

After yesterday's huge deal to acquire Brandon Saad, will the Jackets turn their focus to free agency to improve the team?

We've talked about some of the blueliners that could be available, and this morning the Dispatch reported this:

#CBJ GM Jarmo Kekalainen sounded like he didn't expect much today in free agency, though told they've spoken with D Paul Martin.

Martin would be a solid addition, as long as his new deal doesn't hamper the team's ability to potentially add something in-season if they are a contender.
