NHL FREE AGENCY SPLASH
The Washington Capitals hockey club has started off their free agency season with a BANG. First off by signing Stanley Cup winning goaltender Darcy Kuemper to a 5 year $26.25 million contract. Since 2017-18 Kuemper leads the NHL in save percentage with a .921 and is number 2 in Goals Against Average with a 2.43. Darcy joins an aging Caps team chasing another stanley cup for the Great 8 Alex Ovechkin. That was not the only move as GMBM continued to reshape the team by trading a 2024 2nd round pick to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for forward Connor Brown. Brown has 1 year left on his contract at $3.6 million and will likely slot in the top 6 forwards until players return from injury. Connor had 39 points and 10 goals in 64 games this past season. Continuing the list of deals on the day. GMBM resigned forward Marcus Johansson to a 1 year deal at $1.1 million. Dman Erik Gustafsson to a 1 year $800,000 deal. maybe the sneakiest signing with the most potential upside c
