2020 NHL Free Agency Tracker: Instant analysis and grades
October 3
Brian Elliott re-signs with Flyers
MOOOOOOOOSE. ✍️ https://t.co/6XpbvT9hlt
— Philadelphia Flyers (@NHLFlyers) October 3, 2020
Brian Elliott is staying Philly. The backup goaltender signed a one-year extension worth $1.5 million.
Grade: B. Hard to hate this signing. Elliott works well with Carter Hart and he’s a quality backup.
Robin Lehner To Sign With Vegas
Goaltender Robin Lehner has put pen to paper and signed a 5-year, $25 million extension to stay with the Vegas @GoldenKnights. Announcement expected later today.

Lehner was No. 5 on #TSNHockey’s Top 75 free agents list. #FreeAgentFrenzy
The deal that was allegedly done during the Stanley Cup Playoffs has finally been worked out. Great deal for Robin Lehner, who gets a well-deserved long-term deal. He’s been looking for one for far too long. Vegas gets great value here too. One has to wonder what’s up with Marc-Andre Fleury now, though. Is his time with the Golden Knights over?
Grade: A. Love this for Lehner and Vegas. Match made in heaven. May the “Kung Fu Panda” goalie enjoy his time in Sin City!
Penguins Re-Sign Tristan Jarry
The Penguins have re-signed goaltender Tristan Jarry to a three-year contract.
— Pittsburgh Penguins (@penguins) October 3, 2020

Grade: B+. Good contract for both sides. This likely means Matt Murray’s days with the Penguins are over. The writing has been on the wall for a while, but this confirms it.
