The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed forward Max Domi to a one-year deal worth $3M. The Maple Leafs get: a talented, but at times frustrating and wildly inconsistent forward who can play center, but will likely line up on the wing. They could be getting the 40-point Domi of 2020 through early 2022, or they [...]
The Seattle Kraken have signed winger Kailer Yamamoto to a one-year deal worth $1.5M AAV. The Kraken get: a diminutive (5-8), high-upside winger with a lot to prove.

The Toronto Maple Leafs have signed winger Tyler Bertuzzi to a one-year deal worth $5.5M AAV. The Maple Leafs get: a hardworking, tenacious buzzsaw and former 30-goal scorer who is still in his prime. Although Bertuzzi isn’t anywhere near the size of his uncle (Todd Bertuzzi), Tyler nonetheless plays hard. It’s surprising that he barely [...]
The Florida Panthers have signed forward Evan Rodrigues to a four-year deal worth $3.0M AAV per season. The Panthers get: an underrated and (until now) underpaid forward who can play any position up front, and both special teams.

The Detroit Red Wings have signed defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere (Ghost-Bear) to a one-year deal worth $4.125M. The Red Wings get: a one-dimensional puck-moving defenseman who re-found his game over the past two seasons. Not to the extent where he can put up 60+ points like he did in 2017-18, but definitely back to a level [...]
