I like the Rangers signing Dan Boyle. Still need a replacement for Richards

I never heard of Sekac before either. Is he NHL ready or a prospect? Anyone know anything about him?

I just found this:

If it's true that he had 15 teams interested, I would think they promised him a roster spot. Can't see him going to Hamilton when other teams could have surely offered him a roster spot.

Looks to me then that MB is done making his moves with the exception of signing PK and Eller.

Not sure why Montreal would offer this guy a spot on the NHL roster.

Here are his KHL stats:

109 Games played, 13 goals, 26 assists for 39 points.

I hope they didn't break the bank on this guy...

It's an entry level deal so it won't be very much $$$ at all.

[RGM81]

Lots of secondary moves happening now.

Emery back to Philly for $1M.
Dubnyk to Arizona for $800K.

[TheIronHorse4]

Meszaros to Buffalo 1 year 4.12M. Sabres have reached the cap floor.

[RGM81]

Brad Richards to Chicago.

[flemingc04]

Matt Niskanen to Washingon for $40.25million x 7 years. Holy cow!

That Niskanen deal is nuts, just plain nuts.
