3 year, $1.1 million per season.

guess shelley was right. ;)

Wow, Sather blew it.

Didn't expect that one.

I hope that the coach saw how he can play in multiple situations with both the Rangers and San Jose, and will play him every night, unlike what he did with Cote.

Wow, I didn't expect Shelley to get a better offer than the one he received from the Rangers. Good deal for Jody.

Philly must have a trade in the works, they have to be way over the cap

And HF crashes....

Riley Cote to the KHL

Ouch, not liking that contract, but Shelley is a solid enforcer.

awesome, now maybe they'll move Cote

Pens/Flyers games just got a hell of a lot more interesting.

He's too tough. LOL.
