Defenseman Aaron Ekblad and the Florida Panthers have agreed to an eight-year, $60 million extension.?The news was first reported by the Miami Herald and confirmed by ESPNs Craig Custance. The final details are still being worked out and the deal likely wont be official until next week, the source told Custance.I dont think its any secret, Panthers general manager Tom Rowe said.Hes a guy we want in the fold for a long time to come. Ekblad was an All-Star in each of his first two years with Florida, and now clearly becomes a face of a franchise that believes it is getting closer to finally hoisting the Stanley Cup.Couldnt be happier, Ekblad wrote on Instagram as he posed in a Florida jersey. He was the No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft and already is Floridas franchise leader with eight career game-winning goals.An exceptionally skilled, intelligent and mature young player that is a difference maker for our team both on and off the ice, Rowe said.The Panthers won the Atlantic Division last year, reaching the playoffs for just the second time in 15 seasons. The ownership group led by Vincent Viola has made no secret that it is driven by winning a championship, and Florida is starting to look like a real potential contender.He bought the team to win a Stanley Cup and the players that weve got here all want to win a Stanley Cup, Rowe said. We felt what we did today gives us a better chance of doing that.There were other moves, including the signing of goaltender James Reimer to a five-year, $17 million deal to share the workload with starter Roberto Luongo.Reimer has spent six seasons in the NHL, mostly with Toronto. He also appeared in nine games --eight regular-season, one playoff --with Stanley Cup finalist San Jose this past season.Reimer came to South Florida to see the Panthers facilities Friday and was quickly convinced he was making the right decision.Weve got a great team and great management and ownership, theyre passionate about winning, Reimer said. As a player, thats the organization you want to be a part of.Luongo is still one of the best in the NHL, but the Panthers have been mindful of not overusing their 37-year-old goalie. Hes sat out roughly one of every four Florida regular-season games in each of the last two years and had offseason hip surgery. The Panthers made a trade for former Colorado backup Reto Berra late last month. If Luongo isnt ready for opening night, Berra would begin as Reimers backup.Information from the Associated Press was used in this report.?Vapormax Plus Nere .J. -- New York Giants wide receiver Victor Cruz will miss the rest of the season after having surgery on his left knee.

He could have been talking about his entire team, though.Tuukka Rask was rarely tested in his latest win, and Patrice Bergerons power-play score capped a three-goal second period that carried the Boston Bruins to a 4-1 victory over the Winnipeg Jets.I think just some games you feel good and the puck seems to find you, said Marchand, who had a second-period goal.That was kind of one of those games tonight. I felt like when it bounces its coming to me, and things kind of work out.Rask needed only 11 saves to raise his record to 11-2, but lost a bid for his fourth shutout with 2:40 to play. He was the NHLs First Star last week, going 4-0-0 with a 0.75 goals-against average.We were skating, we were battling, our forecheck was great, Rask said. We didnt give them any time, any space anywhere on the ice. A very, very good effort. What can I say? Only 12 shots, thats probably the least I ever faced.Jets coach Paul Maurice took the blame for not preparing his team better.I didnt see it coming. I couldnt make enough adjustments to make a change, couldnt hide people on the ice to keep them off the minus-sheet, he said. Im not looking at that room. Im looking at what I did to get them ready. It obviously wasnt enough.Matt Beleskey and Tim Schaller also scored for the Bruins, who won for the eighth time in 11 games.Adam Lowry scored for Winnipeg, and Michael Hutchinson made 34 saves. The Jets were outshot 38-12 while losing in regulation for only the second time in their last seven games.I think were taking a lot of pride in defending well, Boston coach Claude Julien said.Winnipegs players talked about movingg on from the loss.ddddddddddddIt was just one of those nights, Hutchinson said.
