However, we still saw some massive contracts handed out in just the first couple days […]

Michael Bunting was not considered one of the Toronto Maple Leafs’ superstars as his production did not compare with Auston Matthews, Mitchell Marner, William Nylander or John Tavares.

With Adin Hill re-signing in Las Vegas for the next two seasons, Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Frederik Andersen is a consensus top-two backstop on the free agent market on Saturday along with Pittsburgh Penguins netminder Tristan Jarry.

The 28-year-old has posted a save percentage north of .900 […]
