NHL News: Leafs, Kraken, Flames, Predators, and Canucks

The Toronto Maple Leafs re-sign Nick Robertson

Chris Johnston: The Toronto Maple Leafs have re-signed RFA forward Nick Robertson to a one-year, $875,000 contract.

Puck Pedia: The Maple Leafs now have $400,000 in projected salary cap space with 22 players under contract – 13 forwards, seven defense and two goalies.

Nick Robertson, signed 1x$0.8M by TOR, is a young sniper who’s put the puck in the net at one of the most efficient rates in the league while playing sheltered fourth line minutes. Plays at a high pace despite below-average skating. Should get a bigger shot this year. pic.twitter.com/zZxcvZ3cl0

NHL Rumors: Are the New York Rangers and Igor Shesterkin Talking Contract Extension?

Darren Dreger: The Seattle Kraken extended defenseman Adam Larsson to a four-year deal with a $5.25 million cap hit. He’ll have  $4 million signing bonus.

Adam Larsson is a strong defensive stopper, but $5.25M already feels rich for what he offers as a second pair guy. For someone who will be 33 in his first year of the deal, this contract very likely won’t age well. pic.twitter.com/l8OLOjD3bS

Adam Larsson has re-signed with the Seattle Kraken to a four-year extension with an AAV of $5.25M. Larsson is 31 years old defenseman who played 1st pair minutes in the last season. Larsson was bad offensively & average defensively. I don’t like this deal at all. pic.twitter.com/zXwIvjQGHZ

Dan Vladar should be ready for Flames camp

Jason Gregor: Kevin Woodley on Calgary Flames goaltender Dan Vladar: “I’ve heard Vladar has been skating for the past few weeks and looks to be on track from his hip surgery and be ready for camp. Which is important as I think it wouldn’t be wise to put all the responsibility on Dustin Wolf. Too much too soon isn’t great for most goalies.”

Slow and steady for Thatcher Demko

Donnie & Dhali: Rick Dhaliwal said that Vancouver Canucks are still looking around the goalie market. On goaltender Thatcher Demko: “I’ve been told this on Demko, he’s making progress, it is slow and steady..”
