Coming off a 5 year 4million per contract. Decent signing for the Blues. Depends on how the salary cap reacts to this pandemic, though, I’m sure every team is in the same boat.

I'm assuming that Scandella just replaces Bouwmeester, who will probably never play again.

Hard to say much one way or the other with the future of the league up in the air

I am willing to bet a crisp air high five from 2 metres away that there will continue to be an NHL and NHL games will be played at some point in the future.

Good for Scandella. One of very few defensemen from the province of Quebec.

The NHL will be back next season in empty buildings.

Most teams will feel a cap crunch. There might have to be temporary salary roll backs or some other agreement to make the new financial situation viable
