Taken same year as Power, who got 7x$8.3M

Hughes has 93 points in 155 career games, -34 with 44 hits and a 54% shot share

Power has 111 points in 242 career games, +8 with 99 hits and a 52% shot share

TSN has a story up saying that Carter Hart is very likely to sign with Vegas.  Looking at their depth chart, that move makes a ton of sense.  That's a very questionable lilneup right there, especially for a high end team.  It makes you reflect on the Sabres goalies a bit and realize just how questionable the position is all over the league.

Florida extends Mikkola to 8 x $5M for forty total. Second pair defensive defenseman. One more year on the current deal.

Edit: Whoops. Did a number transposition there...   One more cup of coffee ought to fix that.

Who?

 Tampa and Florida really beating on each other. Somehow Tampa has 5 players in the box at once.

Fair contract, right?  Seems solid all around.  How would you compare to Power’s?  IMO decent value on both for future.  Seems like a more traditional hitting and blocking dman but not necessarily more effect than OP.

Ya, there's a lesson in how real teams go about settling scores. 

That was fun to watch.

Just another reason that this season has a real house of cards feel

Jackson Lacombe is a 6'2" defender for Anaheim and put up like 43pts last year. He's from the 2019 draft class I think. He's their #1 guy.

Because Ruff will retire and give it up to Appert.

Another guy who people need to think about what he was at 22.

He was an NHL rookie on one of the worst teams in the league. He was not in his 3rd nhl season on a 2nd pair with Rasmus Dahlin to lean on in the locker room and to also eat the toughest minutes. 

Owen Power is fine, he's probably an above average defender and certainly well above average offensively.
