Langaniere likely signs tomorrow, or Monday

I'm thinking that teams are lining up for Langaniere and keeping a contract spot open for him. I'm sure that other teams are up against the contract limit like us and one Langaniere signs that will spur more activity. I count 3 good players minimum that were in the final - Langlois, Hartzell and Langaniere and you could add Andrew Miller to the list as was suggested by another poster.
The Krushelnyski kid intrigues me if only for his name/pedigree. Smaller than his dad but tenacious and wins puck battles. It would be like adding grit without blowing a draft pick or trading another asset. Another tidbit is that Rylan Schwartz was only offered a NHL contract by the Sharks, surprised that there wasn't more competition for his services.
