Gionta News

Brian Gionta has been invited to training camp, but may not accept. He would have to buy insurance incase of an injury. He is beleived to be seeking a deal worth around 3.5 million dollars a year. Some sources say a team could possibly come in a give Gionta a 3.99 million dollar offer sheet. If the Devils don't match, they would receive a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round pick from the team who signed him.

3 draft picks is a pretty good deal for one of the best goal scorers in the league. The Bruins should offer him Zhamnov's $4.1 million. Can the Bruin's spend that $4.1 mill yet? Or is it true that they have to wait until Zhamnov misses 10 games before his money doesn't count against their cap?

I am not quite sure on the deal with Zhamnov's contract, I think they have to wait and see, but I can imagine he will never play in a B's uniform again. As for the picks, that may be a little steep, but I am for it. I don't know if they can sign Gionta though with Zhamnov still in the books.
