Good signings by NYI. Also puts some pressure on Boyes to not sign for too much. Isles have almost all their key players on long term contracts between 2.5-4m except viz and Tavares who both have relatively modest cap hits.

Definitely thought he would get more than that by far.

Man, if only they'd let the team be mid cap. 18m in space with a full team, a Jagr or Brunner on tavares' wing would be sick.

Per GM Ken Holland, Red Wings have agreed to deal with D Brendan Smith, avoid arbitration. Smith, 24, gets 2 YRS $2.525M/ $1.26M cap hit.
