Go on, geezer.

I know the Simon deal is for AHL depth with the flexibility of filling in for the Pens if needed, but everyone else is making bigger moves…lol

Apparently ESPN+ is covering FAF, but I’m not paying for that

Go on, geezer.
Maybe the Pens are working hard to give Saad a lengthy contract.
And also trying to bring Fleury back

I could see a Saad deal because he's a hometown product.
I read somewhere that Fleury is not interested in moving his family back to PiT but but who knows really

Definitely, almost definitely not going to age well.
A lot of contracts being handed out today, especially for middling-to-not-very-good defencemen, are bonkers. Very glad the Leafs opted to protect Holl now. This seems a huge departure from last year's free agency even though the cap has not gone up and is not going up.

Well at least it wasn't an eight year contract.

Last year's free agency was very much impacted by COVID though.

Ceci getting paid!

Sure, in that teams have been able to recoup some money when arenas opened back up, but the salary cap is the same and where last year GMs were comparatively prudent, more bad and mediocre players are getting big paydays this year.

The Montreal Canadiens signed defenseman David Savard to a four-year contract with an average annual value of $3.5 million, reports TSN's Pierre LeBrun.
The Quebec native recently helped the Tampa Bay Lightning defeat the Canadiens in the Stanley Cup Final. Tampa Bay acquired him at the trade deadline last season.
Savard previously played for the Columbus Blue Jackets. He's appeared in 611 games, scoring 41 goals and adding 125 assists.
The 31-year-old brings a solid defensive game to the Canadiens, who are reportedly going to be without captain Shea Weber next season, and perhaps beyond.
