The Pittsburgh Penguins announced several restricted free agent signings, highlighted by winger Egor Chinakhov, who secured a three-year, $18.75MM contract after a successful season, scoring 36 points in 43 games. They also signed goaltenders Arturs Silovs (one-year, $2.8MM) and Joel Blomqvist (two-year, $1.75MM), along with forward David Gustafsson (one-year, $850K). Chinakhov aims to continue his scoring success in a middle-six role, while Silovs looks to prove himself as a reliable starter. Gustafsson is expected to play a key role in the AHL and may be called up if needed.
