TSN reports the Nashville Predators have re-signed center Mike Ribeiro to a two-year, $7 million deal.
TSN’s Darren Dreger reports the Calgary Flames have re-signed goaltender Karri Ramo to a one-year, $3.9 million contract.
Sportsnet’s Chris Johnston reports the Chicago Blackhawks have signed recently-acquired center Artem Anisimov to a five-year extension (effective next summer) with an annual cap hit of $4.55 million.
Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reports the Anaheim Ducks have signed recently-acquired Kevin Bieksa to a two-year, $8 million contract extension, effective 2016-17.
Either Doug Wilson was relieved of his duties or the pharmacist changed his medication. There’s no way this is possible that they’re actually considering FAs with him still there. This is like winning the lotto so far.
whispers out of Chicago that Bryan Bickell and young goaltender Anders Nilsson may be packaged to Boston in a July 1 deal.
I would like that trade if Chicago pays at least 1 million of Bickells contract, B’s need at least 1 more established forward and D-man
I just wanna say EXCELLENT job done by Lyle today. Lyle has provided a faster more accurate job reporting trades, signing and details than even TSN or the NHL website. You earned your pay today Lyle, thanks
Thanks, Yogi! 🙂
Second the motion, Yogi. Just home from golf and straight to Spector’s Hockey – best hockey blog out there. Thanks, Lyle.
Hey, look, yogi and I agree on something. Fantastic job Lyle.
Belesky at $3.8 million per year after coming off a $1.4 million per year seems like a huge overpayment; and for 5 years too; on what I think might just be a one trick pony career year playing with Getzlaf and Perry? Sweeney may come to regret this signing.
$ 3.8 million a year cap hit is nothing in the league right now and will be even less in a year or two. Chiarelli was giving out contracts like that here to guys like Chris Kelly
Beleskey supposedly turned down a four-year, $16 million deal to return to the Anaheim Ducks.
