With 14 pending restricted free agents and 9 pending unrestricted free agents, General Manager Tom Fitzgerald will need to make some difficult decisions in terms of the roster. While most of those pending RFAs will return, how much and how long their new contracts will be of a concern for the near future. I would go as far as to say that next Summer should be in Fitzgerald’s mind when he makes any signing, minor, cheap, or otherwise. This is because the 2022 offseason could end up being one of the most expensive in recent franchise history.
