extreme Pittsburgh accent: “this Lamine Yamal”

washington overpaid for desharnais, but he's not bad and fits what they needed, particularly this year. sensing a little bit of an overreaction there.

[Chris Johnston @reporterchris]

Jacob Trouba signs a four-year deal with $SJSharks carrying an $8.25M AAV.

[Sean Gentille @seangentille]

Sought out some opinions on what NHL free agency will look like tomorrow.

Jacob Markstrom deal kinda feels like a win-win, yeah?
