Boston Bruins sign Fraser Minten to massive seven-year extension

The Boston Bruins have locked up what they hope is a foundational core piece of their team for almost a decade, as the team announced on Tuesday, they've inked forward Fraser Minten to a seven-year contract extension. The Bruins have signed Fraser Minten to a seven-year, $50.4M extension 🐻 pic.twitter.com/5QBsHaZNjn — Sportsnet (@Sportsnet) September 8, 2026 The deal is worth $50.4 million total, and pays Minten $7.2 million AAV through the 2034 season. He's set to make just $879,166 plus bonuses this season. Minten's a former top pick of the Toronto Maple Leafs and was traded to the Bruins a couple of years ago, along with a first, and fourth-round pick for defenceman Brandon Carlo. Carlo's since been dealt to the St. Louis Blues, as Boston won the trade by a landslide. Minten, 22, is expected to play a significant top-six role in Boston this season. Last year, he appeared in all 82 games, scoring 17 goals and 35 points, while averaging 15:33 per game, including spending time on both sides of special teams. Look for Minten to eventually be the Bruins full shut-down center, with some serious upside offensively, which is of course, what the Bruins are banking on with this contract. The #NHLBruins signed 22 y/o F Fraser Minten to a seven year $7.2M cap hit contract Yr 1 3.4M Salary, 4M Signing Bonus Yr 2 5M/3M Yr 3 7M/2M Yr 4-5 5M/2M Yr 6-7 5M/1M Yr 6: 16 team NTC, Yr 7: 10 team NTC, deal covers 2 UFA years Rep'd by Gregory Landry @Greg_Landry … — PuckPedia (@PuckPedia) September 8, 2026 “We are excited to have signed Fraser to a long-term extension,” said Bruins General Manager Don Sweeney. “Since joining our organization, Fraser has continued to grow and earn the accelerated trust of his teammates and coaching staff. His hockey sense, competitiveness, responsible two-way game, and offensive growth make him a valuable player for our group. This is a mutual long-term commitment that reflects our confidence in Fraser and the important role he will play, as well as Fraser’s belief in our team moving forward.”

San Jose Sharks Sign Ilya Samsonov to 1-Year Contract

The San Jose Sharks have added some goaltending depth, just days away from training camps opening, as the team announced on Tuesday, they've signed veteran netminder Ilya Samsonov to a one-year contract. The deal is a two-way contract, which opens up the possibility of Samsonov heading to the American Hockey League once training camp wraps up. The financials involved have yet to be announced, but Samsonov joins a Sharks' crease that already features Alex Nedeljkovic and fellow Russian, Yaroslav Askarov. There's also been some rumblings about the Sharks having trade interest in Connor Hellebuyck, so it will be interesting to see who's in net for their season opener in a few weeks. Samsonov returns to North American pro hockey after spending the 2025-26 season in the KHL, playing for the HK Sochi. He posted a 3-8-0 record in 14 games, along with a 3.27 goals against average and .903 save percentage. His team finished in dead last so perhaps it had more to do with the talent in front of him, than Samsonov's struggles. ✍️ We’ve signed goaltender Ilya Samsonov. San Jose Sharks (@SanJoseSharks) September 8, 2026 Samsonov frankly hasn't been the same since the Toronto Maple Leafs were eliminated by the Boston Bruins back a few years ago, and has bounced around the NHL, and elsewhere since. After his struggles in Toronto, Samsonov joined the Vegas Golden Knights in 2024, and went 16-9-4 with a 2.82 GAA in 29 starts. Across 200 career NHL games, Samsonov's gone 118-48-25, with a very respectable 2.77 GAA and .902 save percentage, along with 13 shutouts. The former first-round pick hasn't had the same success during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, with a career 6-14 record, and 3.05 GAA and .901 Sv.%.
