NHL signings tracker: Sam Bennett inks new contract with Panthers

The NHL free agency list continues to be whittled down before the July 1 opening date. Two more big names came off June 27 on the first day of the draft. Panthers center Sam Bennett, the playoff MVP with 15 goals during Florida's repeat run, agreed to terms on an eight-year contract. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reports that it's worth $8 million a year. Advertisement That hometown discount will come in handy with the Panthers also needing to re-sign Brad Marchand, Aaron Ekblad and others. 'Sam is a special player who has mastered a unique blend of skill and physicality in his game, becoming one of the most impactful postseason performers of his generation,' said Panthers general manager Bill Zito. 'He played an integral role in our two Stanley Cup championships, earning the franchise's first Conn Smythe Trophy and is a dedicated contributor to our South Florida community off the ice. We are thrilled that he will continue his career with the Panthers." Maple Leafs' John Tavares re-signs He'll get four years at a $4.38 million average, a hometown discount for the 34-year-old. He scored 38 goals and 74 points in 75 games this past season. Oilers' Trent Frederic re-signs The rugged forward was acquired at the trade deadline. He'll average $3.85 million in the eight-year deal. This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: NHL free agents: Latest signings; Sam Bennett returns to Panthers

Louisiana Supreme Court awards Ed Orgeron's ex-wife $8 million in dispute over former LSU coach's buyout

The Louisiana Supreme Court ruled Friday that former LSU coach Ed Orgeron owes his ex-wife Kelly nearly half of the buyout he received from the school. In a 5-2 ruling, the court said Kelly Orgeron should receive $8.13 million from the buyout since the two were married when Ed signed his contract extension with LSU in January 2020. Orgeron was rewarded with a new contract just after the Tigers went undefeated throughout the 2019 college football season and won the College Football Playoff. Advertisement Ed Orgeron filed for divorce six weeks after he signed the extension, though the contract was not officially approved by the school's board until divorce proceedings had begun. Orgeron received nearly $17 million from the school when he was fired. The supreme court's decision reversed a 2024 lower court ruling in favor of the coach. Three judges who ruled on the case were temporary replacements because of recusals. 'The lower courts failed to recognize that even if the employment agreement could be considered a 'new' obligation rather than a fulfillment of the requirements of the binding term sheet, because it was made effective during the existence of the community, the contract is a community asset in which both husband and wife have an interest,' Judge Jefferson Hughes wrote for the majority in the ruling. 'Property acquired during the community is presumed to be community property.' Orgeron became LSU's coach during the 2016 season after Les Miles was fired and led the Tigers to a 6-2 record after taking over. After 19 wins over the 2017 and 2018 seasons, LSU went 15-0 in 2019 with an offense led by Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson and Clyde Edwards-Helaire that scored more than 48 points per game. Burrow won the Heisman after the Tigers dismantled Georgia 37-10 in the SEC championship game. The Tigers had five first-round picks in the 2020 NFL Draft and 14 overall, but things quickly went downhill for LSU after that season. The Tigers went just 5-5 in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season and then 6-6 in 2021 as the school announced midseason that Orgeron would not return for 2022 after a 3-3 start. Since he was fired at LSU, Orgeron has not held a formal college football coaching role.
