As @Bob_Stauffer mentioned, I’m told all signs point to Brett Connolly signing a four-year deal with the Panthers on Monday

I love how the leafs did nothing with their top talent coming cheap.

Bruins, tb already powerhouses and now habs, panthers pushing to get into the mix.

They haven't gotten anyone just yet. Panarin and Bobrovsky rumours have been out there for a while, but there's quite a few players for those two, so I'm skeptical that it will actually happen. Big name free agents rarely come to Florida.

I like picking up Connolly. He'll help to fill out the 3rd line that badly needs some veteran experience.

Hearing will be around $3.5 M aav for Connolly on a four year deal with Florida

^That's quite palatable, even if he doesn't keep putting up 40 points a year.
