The Daily: Jarvis Deal Could Impact Raymond; Holl Wins Title

The Carolina Hurricanes signed Seth Jarvis to an eight-year contract paying him on average $7.9 million per season.  Jarvis had a similar production (33 goals, 67 points) last season to Detroit Red Wings unsigned forward Lucas Raymond (31 goals, 71 points).

TSN is reporting that Jarvis has roughly $30 million in signing bonuses.

Both players are 22. Jarvis boasts 64 career goals in 234 career NHL games, while Raymond owns 71 goals in 238 NHL games.

The Jarvis signing comes at a time when there is no indication the Red Wings are close to re-signing Raymond.

Red Wings In Case You Missed It

Defenseman Justin Holl was a member of the championship team in the Beauty League, a popular summer hockey league. Former Red Wings player Jon Merrill was also on the squad.

The Red Wings are among the NHL teams mourning the loss of Johnny Gaudreau. The Red Wings have a collection of American-born players who knew him well from playing on U.S. teams. Dylan Larkin and Gaudreau played on multiple American teams together.

Red Wings prospect Marco Kasper is not going to play in the Olympics. Austria isn’t going to win the qualifying tournament.

Red Wings Offseason

Former Red Wings goalie Kaden Fulcher is new goalie coach for the OHL Sarnia Sting.  Red Wings scout Jiri Fischer’s son plays for that team.
