The Boston Bruins have re-signed forward Tyler Seguin to a six year, $45 million contract extension. His expected cap hit is $5.75 million. Brochu's take: With Taylor Hall's and Jordan Eberle's contract in mind, the Bruins got a bargain.
The Chicago Blackhawks have signed defenseman Michal Rozsival to a one-year, $2 million contract.
The Carolina Hurricanes have signed forward Jeremy Welsh to a two-year, two-way contract.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed forward Nikita Kucherov to a three-year, entry-level contract. Kucherov was Tampa's 2nd round pick in the 2011 NHL Entry Draft.

NHL and Hockey Rumors for Dec 12, 2008
According to ESPN, there is a rumor going around that the New York Rangers are interested in re-acquiring Dallas Stars forward Sean Avery, and would like to send defenseman Michal Rozsival in exchange. Avery would then be sent to the Ranger's AHL affiliate in Hartford, which would free up salary cap space to sign Mats Sundin. Brochu's take: A very strange rumor. The Rangers really weren't interested in re-signing him this past summer, so why would they want him in the organization now? Source
According to the New York Post, Mats Sundin will be in New York City this weekend and will meet with Rangers GM Glen Sather. The hockey rumor mill is indicating that the top 2 teams on Mats Sundin's list are the Rangers and Vancouver Canucks. Brochu's take: This will be my last post about Mats Sundin until he ACTUALLY signs.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed forward Dana Tyrell to a three-year, entry-level contract.
The Miami Herald's On Frozen Pond hockey blog is speculating that the Edmonton Oilers are trying hard to acquire Florida Panthers defenseman Jay Bouwmeester. Brochu's take: The hometown microscope has not really worked for most players (case in point, Joffrey Lupul), and Bouwmeester has said in the past he doesn't want to play in Edmonton. It's also curious that these type of rumors always begin to percolate as the Panthers make their way through Western Canada. Source

NHL and Hockey Rumors for Dec 7, 2008
The following NHL and hockey rumors are from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun:
"Multiple NHL sources told Sun Media yesterday that Atlanta Thrashers GM Don Waddell has held serious talks with several teams about the possibility of trading forward Ilya Kovalchuk." Garrioch speculates that the Montreal Canadiens have an "obvious interest" in the Russian forward. Brochu's take: If Kovalchuk is traded, Waddell would be fired shortly thereafter. I predict that Kovalchuk will stay, unless some team ridiculously overpays.
"There's a lot of talk the [New York]Rangers are looking to move either defenseman Wade Redden or Michal Rozsival. Both were signed to new deals in the off-season, but Redden, who agreed to a six-year, $39-million deal, has a no-movement clause in his contract, making it more likely that Rozsival would be dealt." Brochu's take: For the record, Redden does NOT have a no-movement clause, but a somewhat limited no trade clause where he has listed three teams he cannot be traded too. Both the hefty contracts of Redden and Rozsival make them essentially untradeable.
"The [Florida]Panthers are trying to move forward Nathan Horton. He is scheduled to make an average of $4 million on a contract that runs through the 2012-13 season, which could make him difficult to trade. Forwards Rostislav Olesz and Brett McLean can be had for a draft pick." Brochu's take: Horton would probably get interest from a lot of teams in the NHL.
"The [Edmonton]Oilers have mild interest in moving defenseman Ladislav Smid. Given a chance, he could fit the bill for the [Ottawa]Senators." Brochu's take: There's been a lot of rumors that the Senators and Oilers are discussing trades, and this should add to the scuttlebutt.
"The [Philadelphia]Flyers are looking to dump salary and might decide to see what they can get for forward Joffrey Lupul." Brochu's take: Lupul's been on the trading block for a few weeks now.
Garrioch also believes the Thrashers will move defenseman Matheiu Schneider by the March 4 trade deadline, and he has already received a few calls.

Campbell, Redden, Streit, Rozsival signed
The Chicago Blackhawks have signed defenceman Brian Campbell to an 8-year, $56.8 million contract. Brochu's take: The fact that Brian Campbell will make more money than Scott Niedermayer or Chris Pronger makes me sick in the stomach.
The New York Rangers have signed defenceman Wade Redden to a six-year, $39 million contract. Brochu's take: No wonder he went to the open market. Redden did not play well enough last season to garner this type of salary. But this is the "silly" season for a reason.
The Rangers also re-signed defenseman Michal Rozsival to a four-year, $20 million contract.
The Rangers also re-signed goalie Steve Valiquette. Terms were not disclosed.
