NHL.com: RFA defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere was signed by the Philadelphia Flyers to a multi-year contract today.

Being a part of one of the top hockey organizations is a dream come true, according to Gostisbehere. It’s comforting to know that you’re a part of the plans and the future, especially with everything that’s going on here—we have some young guys on the horizon and some important pieces already in place. There are still a lot of steps to take, which should result in some fantastic things. To realize you are a part of the future is a great honor.

On the Blue Jackets of Columbus
Columbus Messenger: Goalie Joonas Korpisalo has been signed by the Columbus Blue Jackets to a two-year contract extension that has a $900,000 salary cap hit. Next year, he will be paid $700,000, and from 2018 to 2019, he will be paid $1.1 million.

They risk losing Korpisalo to the Vegas Golden Knights in the expansion draft because he will be available.

In addition, defenseman Dean Kukan and forward Zac Dalpe signed one-year, two-way contracts with the Blue Jackets.
