Mirtle at The Athletic 

Utah, meanwhile, had acres of cap space – more than $18 million, fifth most in the league before the deal – and a new market and owner that wanted to go big. Mission accomplished, Ryan Smith. 

  • Of note: Peterka signed a five-year, $7.7 million per season contract as part of the deal.  

Did the Sabres get enough – power forward prospect Josh Doan and defenseman Michael Kesselring – for one of their best young players? Our trade graders, including yours truly, aren’t so sure, but a lot will hinge on Doan’s development and Kesselring’s ability to absorb tough minutes alongside Rasmus Dahlin or Owen Power.

This is more interesting. I wonder if it will be called the Mark Stone Rule, because fuck him

good, they needed to fix that. I actually don't have an issue with any of the rule changes coming out of the CBA:

Marchand resigns for six years with FLA. About $5M per season.

He’s 37.

yeah that's flat out sus as hell. I'm legitimately shocked the league allowed it.

So he's not gonna just retire and give up the last half of his contract, so is he gonna just play as long as he can and then go on LTIR? Definitely suspicious on that one.

Stankoven with an 8 year contract. Ya, getting Rantanen may have been a mistake. 

Stars just drafted the next Stankoven.

that one was a bargain of a deal for the Canes.

the Miller trade and extension - not so much. Don't get me wrong, I've been high on the kid dating back to his time with the Badgers, that said a first (late as it may be), 2nd, and Morrow is A LOT to give up though.

The Colorado Avalanche has added another Norris Trophy winner to its defense corps.

Colorado signed Brent Burns to a one-year contract, the club announced Wednesday night. The contract is for $1 million in base salary, with up to $3 million in additional bonuses Burns can attain, according to a report from Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman.

Burns, who will turn 41 years old in March, has played the past three season with the Carolina Hurricanes after a run of more than a decade as one of the best defensemen in the sport with the San Jose Sharks.

The 2017 Norris Trophy winner had six goals and 29 points in 82 games for the Hurricanes last year. Despite being one of the oldest players in the league, he still logged more than 20 minutes per game for a Stanley Cup contender.
