Penguins forward Josh Archibald signed a two-year, one-way contract Wednesday that guarantees him a yearly salary of $675,000, the most he’s ever made as a professional hockey player.
It won’t be the best thing he’s done this summer.
Archibald and his wife, Bailey, are expecting their first child on Aug. 13. They’re choosing to be surprised by its sex and they’re spending the summer in Omaha, Neb. — they met at the University of Nebraska-Omaha — so Bailey can remain close to her doctor.
There’s been a consistent level of excitement for the young parents-to-be, and it got turned up a notch when Josh signed his new deal.
