Latest NHL signings!
Updated as of 11:50 AM PST
The Chicago Blackhawks have signed forward Marian Hossa to a 12-year, $62.4 million contract. Brochu's take: What is GM Dale Tallon doing? He already has great players in Toews and Kane, whose contracts are up next year and both could command $6 million+. Not to mention he still has several RFAs to sign. Do the Hawks really need Hossa's offense?
The Florida Panthers have re-signed RFA forward David Booth to a 6-year, $25.5 million contract.
The New Jersey Devils have re-signed defenseman Andy Greene. Terms were not disclosed.
The Colorado Avalanche have signed goalie Craig Anderson to a 2-year, $3.6 million contract.
The St. Louis Blues have signed goalie Ty Conklin to a 2-year, $2.6 million contract. Brochu's take: No Winter Classic for Conklin, who has managed to play for 3 of those games already.
The Tampa Bay Lightning have signed defenseman Matt Walker to a 4-year, $6.8 million contract.
The New York Islanders have signed goalie Dwayne Roloson to a 2-year, $5 million contract.

Heatley deal not dead, latest signings
The NHL rumor world was on fire yesterday as news filtered out that the Ottawa Senators and Edmonton Oilers have a deal in place for Dany Heatley, but it was revealed that Heatley did not waive his no trade clause to go to Edmonton. The deal would have sent Dustin Penner, Andrew Cogliano and Ladislav Smid to the Sens in exchange for Heatley. The much-talked $4 million bonus will only be paid after 11:59 PM July 1st (today), so there's still time for the Senators to work out the deal. Brochu's take: TSN is reporting that Heatley has not flat out refused the trade, he has just not done anything. This deal could still be on.

Sedins re-signed, Bolts sign Ohlund
The Vancouver Canucks have re-signed Daniel and Henrik Sedin to 5-year, $30.5 million contracts. Brochu's take: Not a bad deal at all. For comparable scorers, it's quite a bargain.
Tampa Bay Lightning have signed defenseman Mattias Ohlund to a seven-year contract worth $24.5 million. Brochu's take: It's front loaded, so he will earn significantly less in the later years.
Just to wrap up what happend yesterday...
The Montreal Canadiens acquired centre Scott Gomez, winger Tom Pyatt and defenceman Mike Busto from the New York Rangers in exchange for winger Chris Higgins and defencemen Doug Janik, Ryan McDonagh and Pavel Valentenko.
The Calgary Flames have signed defenseman Jay Bouwmeester to a 5-year contract worth $6.68 million per year. Brochu's take: So the Flames essentially got Bouwmeester for a third rounder. Great move by GM Darryl Sutter, who managed to sign the blueliner at slightly less than market value.
The New York Islanders have traded forward Ben Walter and future considerations to the New Jersey Devils for the rights to forward Tony Romano.
