NHL general managers made it rain Friday.
The free-agent market opened with a bang Friday at 12 p.m. ET, with a flurry of action over the first three hours.
The major players - Milan Lucic, Loui Eriksson, Andrew Ladd, Kyle Okposo, and Mikkel Boedker, to only name a few - are all off the board.
In total, teams spent more than $630 million - over half a billion dollars! - on 119 players, according to Sportsnet's John Shannon.
It was a frenzy, yeah.
