David Perron with the Senators | Elias Lindholm and Nikita Zadorov in Boston
Auteur: Christopher BrownThere’s a lot going on in the Canadian division.
Kent Hughes hasn’t made a move yet… But we can see that other Atlantic teams are improving.
For example? I’m thinking of the Bruins, Senators and Leafs.
David Perron 2 x $4M Ottawa

The Sens are trying new things… And the addition of Perron could be useful, in the sense that he has experience and in the sense that he’s still capable of producing offensively.
That’s one more offensive weapon, anyway.
Now we’ll have to see if it’s enough to get the club into the playoffs…

It’s a lot, but the Bruins are sure to have a first-choice center responsible in all three zones of the rink.
For Zadorov, we’re talking about a six-year contract at $5 million per season.
Zadorov, who likes to hit the opposition, will fit in well with the Bruins’ culture… And it also allows the club to add some toughness on defense.
Three big signings in Toronto
He didn’t trade Mitch Marner… But he did make some big signings.
The club signed Chris Tanev for six years at $4.5 million per season…
Joseph Woll has a new three-year contract in his pocket ($3.66 M per season)…
2 years at $2.5 per for Stolarz and Leafs.

We’re talking about a one-season contract at $875,000. He will be Toronto’s third goaltender.
Clubs are (very) aggressive… And Kent Hughes is (very) quiet.
