Dan Hamhuis to the Canucks, 6 Year 27 Million Dollar Contract

Ray Shero lost the Hamhuis sweepstakes or did he?  Shero traded a draft pick for the right to try to sign Hamhuis and failed.  Then today Shero ended up with two better defensemen,  Zbynek Michalek from Phoenix and Paul Martin from the New Jersey, both are now signed to long term contracts. Michalek a 5 year deal worth $20 million and Paul Martin 5 years $25 Milion.  The Pens defense is now secure!
