The Ottawa Senators continue to make affordable signings in
this summer’s UFA market to bolster their roster, signing former Penguins
agitator Jarkko Ruutu to a three-year, $3.9 million contract.
Ruutu’s new salary will be $1.3 million per season against the
Senators cap, which is only a slight boost over the $1.15 million he earned
with the Penguins last season.
His addition will provide addition grit to the Sens forward
lines.
