Was starting to think there was some bad blood between Sokolov and the Wild with how long they waited to sign him.

The tweet should have read, "We have a Pope!" with smoke curling up in the background.

Is it just me or has there been an explosion of European FA signings this year?

19 last year between the end of the season and the start of free agency (7 at this same point in the post-season last year)

So far this year there have been 11 European signings since the end of the season

Hm, so a bit higher pace. Maybe I'm just more aware of it this year. Either way it's great to see.

Per CapFriendly Carolina has signed Morgan Geekie to his ELC. Geekie, 19, was a 3rd round pick 67th overall in 2017

Wonder if there is actual bad blood or something going on between the Wild and Kaapo Kahkonen whose rights are set to expire on June 1st. For a team lacking goalies with NHL potential it's really weird that Kahkonen has remained unsigned for so long from the Wild's POV which leads to the belief either Kahkonen isn't a fan of the Wild organization or just isn't interested in playing in the NHL.
