Late August has continued to be sloooow on the news front, but we’re now less than a month away from the beginning of the league’s preseason schedule. And while the Islanders continue to hold their widely assumed signing news under lock and key, other teams made some news this week.
Two identical (in max-length and cap hit) re-signings have been announced by division rivals:
- The Flyers signed Sean Couturier to an eight-year extension worth $7.75 million per year.
- The Hurricanes signed Andrei Svechnikov to an eight-year deal with the same AAV/cap hit.
