Create Account Orlov, who turns 34 later this month, signed a two-year contract worth $13 million. A Stanley Cup champion from his time in Washington who spent the past two seasons in Carolina, the veteran defenseman will count $6.5 million against the cap through 2026-27. Orlov is the latest addition for the Sharks, who needed to add $20 million somehow to get to the $70.6 million minimum for player salaries. That counts money owed to captain Logan Couture, whose playing career is over because of a debilitating injury. San Jose also claimed Nick Leddy off waivers from St. Louis to add to its new-look blue line that includes recently signed veteran John Klingberg, who got $4 million for next season. 'Klingberg was someone we had targeted for a little while now,' general manager Mike Grier said earlier this week. 'We need someone who can run a power play. We think, as he showed he was getting healthier and healthier this year and another year out from his hip (surgery), I think he'll be even better' This advertisement has not loaded yet, but your article continues below. Leddy also has a year left on his contract at a cap hit of $4 million, with $3 million in actual dollars owed. Orlov is the only experienced defenseman San Jose has signed beyond 2026. Orlov's short-time teammate, Brent Burns, agreed to terms with Colorado on Wednesday night to a one-year contract worth $1 million with up to $3 million more attainable through performance bonuses. Grier said, based on the Sharks' youth movement and building process, did not expect to be involved in any of the big-money free agents this summer. One of the top players available, Danish winger Nikolaj Ehlers, remains unsigned 72 hours into the signing period that opened at noon EDT on Tuesday.

Hurricanes Ink Upcoming UFA To Four-Year Extension
The Carolina Hurricanes have signed forward Eric Robinson to a four-year, $6.8 million contract ($1.7 million AAV) extension. According to PuckPedia, the first three years of the deal come with an eight team No Trade Clause and the final year is the same, but only if in the year prior (2027-28), Robinson plays in 75% of the team's games with at least 12 mins of average time on ice per game. Advertisement Robinson, 30, is coming off of a career year in which he set a new best for goals (14) and points (32) while also appearing in every game for the team this season. The 6-foot-2 winger was a perfect fit in Carolina, able to utilize his speed, size and skating to be an impact player for the Canes in their bottom-six. He brought some physicality to the roster and could also play up and down the lineup as well as chipping in on the penalty kill. The deal is Robinson's first long-term contract, perfect for a new dad wanting to settle down with his family, and gives him a substantial pay increase from his previous deal ($950,000). Advertisement "It's no surprise to us that Eric had his best professional season last year with Carolina,' said Carolina general manager Eric Tulsky in a press release. 'His size and speed make him an excellent fit for the way we want to play, and we are thrilled that he's chosen to remain a Hurricane.'
