Good for them after such a tragedy! from Puck Daddy!

Puck Daddy had the link to this...it's a missing kitteh, and it's named after Patrick Cleary Bergeron, so we need to get him home! Keep an eye out if you're in the area.

No Weber in the East? Well that's good news.

From the press release: Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today, July 18, that the club has signed defenseman Aaron Johnson to a one-year, two-way contract through the 2012-13 season. Johnson’s contract is worth $650,000 at the NHL level and $105,000 at the AHL level. Johnson, a 6’1", 204-pound defenseman, skated in 56 games with the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2011-12, registering three goals and setting NHL career highs with 13 assists and 16 points, while collecting 16 penalty minutes. This is exactly what it looks like: cheap defensive depth. Providence struggled mightily on the blueline last year, with a younger defense corps than in any prior year. Johnson has 10-32=42 totals in the NHL in 172 career games, and 26-83=109 totals in the AHL in 215 career games. If nothing else, this will provide the Bruins' bottom pairing with some healthy competition.

From the press release: "Boston Bruins General Manager Peter Chiarelli announced today, July 12, that the club has signed defenseman Matt Bartkowski to a one-year, two-way contract through the 2012-13 season. Bartkowski’s deal is worth $660,000 at the NHL level and $62,500 at the AHL level." Bartkowski doesn't project to be anything incredible at the NHL level, but this gives him the chance to prove himself. Not a bad deal.
