On the first day of free agency, the Boston Bruins signed Erik Haula to a two-year, $4.75 million contract. It should be a deal that fans are accepting of, as he will make less than what Sean Kuraly received with the Columbus Blue Jackets. Haula has a $2.375 million cap hit, while Kuraly will be making $2.5 million per year over the next four seasons.
