Geekie signed with boston. Got paid. 2yr 2milAAV. Not bad for him there.

There's the Soycy signing in Van. 3.25 for 3 years. Not bad but a bit high given what he is and how he fit in the roster. Hate he went to Van though

Wonder if Francis wasn’t willing to go on $ or term? It’s a lot to pay for a third pairing guy, or it used to be at least. Maybe that’s just what it costs now.

Good for him I guess.

Better than Detroit going 3.5 for Justin "Pylon" Holl

Its a decent deal for Soucy there and he can push for a 3-4 spot perhaps too. We are starting to see the young guys pushing for spots so I think it was the right call there. Sign Borgen and Evans could push for a spot too.

There's Donato. Chicago for 2yr 2mil. Got paid and a good chance to play there too. Happy for him.

Seattle signs Dumoulin. Kinda meh on this one. Not a fan here of this deal at all. Least its only 2yr 3.15 but might as well have just kept Soucy.

A short read with some comments from Francis about letting guys walk and signings.
