The Capitals make a number of promos
Washington Capitals: The Capitals have actually promoted Brian MacLellan to president of hockey operations. He will stay as the basic supervisor.
Chris Patrick has actually been promoted to associate basic supervisor.
Dick Patrick was called chairman of the Capitals.
The Oilers indication 2 to PTOs
Edmonton Oilers: The Oilers have actually signed forwards Sam Gagner and Brandon Sutter to PTOs.
Daniel Nugent-Bowman: “I like PTOs for Brandon Sutter and Sam Gagner for the Oilers. Sutter will be in tough to make the team after all the time away but could be a reasonable 4C option if camp goes well. Gagner is beloved in that room and could take the D. Shore role. (Jackson was his former agent.)”
Jim Matheson: “Good stuff that Sam Gagner is taking PTO here. Clearly hasn’t lost desire to keep playing after hip surgeries. Still see a player development role here down road for Sam but he will battle fellow PTO Brandon Sutter for 4th line spot”
The Avs indication Joel Kiviranta to a PTO
Cap Friendly: The Colorado Avalanche have actually signed forward Joel Kiviranta to a PTO.
Peter Baugh: ” He had 9 points in 70 video games for Dallas in 2015 and brings another choice to the forward group. If you might remember, Kiviranta as soon as had a Game 7 hat technique in a playoff series.”
The Hurricanes indication 2 to PTOs
Walt Ruff: The Carolina Hurricanes have actually signed forwards Cory Conacher and Brendan Perlini to PTOs.
The Red Wings indication Cameron Hillis to a PTO

The Maple Leafs indication Simon Benoit
Toronto Maple Leafs: The Maple Leafs have actually signed 24-year-old defenseman Simon Benoit to a one-year agreement worth $775,000.
Cap Friendly: The Anaheim Ducks didn’t certify Benoit after last season.
Lance Hornby: “Benoit, 24, was in 78 games with the Ducks last season, three goals and seven assists. The 6’3, 208-pounder has 15 points (four goals, 11 assists) in 137 career regular season games, all with Anaheim. Laval native originally signed by the San Diego Gulls (AHL) as a UFA in 2018.”
Simon Benoit, signed by TOR, played 2nd set minutes on the Ducks in 2015, a fate I wouldn’t want on my worst opponent. #LeafsPermanently pic.twitter.com/4L5ssh3ua9

Simon Benoit, the latest Leaf (or ideally Marlie), has the league’s least outstanding gamer card. pic.twitter.com/3pub3eTcae
