UPDATE: Let's hope we dont have a Nylander to Edm situation here...RDS and I are both hearing it is done, however Randy Sexton in Sun Sentinal is denying.. http://blogs.sun-sentinel.com/sports_hockey_panthers/2009/07/sexton-reports-of-tanguay-signing-false.html


Sources have told me that Alex Tanguay has inked a deal with the Florida Panthers. There is a bit of confusion around this signing still...As was reported by Chris Botta today on Islanderspointblank.com, Tanguay has been calling teams and his agent has been calling teams. I know this for fact to be 100% true and some of the confusion as well the length of time before we get 100% confirmation on this deal are tied to this circumstance.

However, I was told by a team that was in the running that Florida had him and it was official. Some other teams in the running have not been told but are saying that they aren't surprised with one GM calling Florida's deal, "By far the best deal out there from a monetary perspective.."
