Dallas Gets Daley for Three

One NHL signing on Wednesday afternoon saw Trevor Daley sign a new 3-year deal worth $6.9 million, which equals a $2.3 million per season cap hit. Daley had himself a behind-the-scenes coming out party in the playoffs, as he was one of the key ingredients on the Dallas blueline as they were suffering through injuries and winning games.

Daley, 24, had played all 82 games for the Stars this past season, scoring 5 goals and 19 assists in the process. His coming out suggests that he could be a bigger part of the offense, depending on how the blueline shapes up for ice-time for him.

His signing does make for six regular defensemen already signed on for next season, which will lessen the load for the off-season agenda.
