The Phoenix Coyotes made a number of tremendous signings in the first hour of free agency.
According to TSN, the team has signed Mike Ribeiro to a four-year and $22 million. Ribeiro scored 49 points during the 2012-13 season with the Washington Capitals but only managed two points in seven playoff games against the New York Rangers.
In addition to the Ribeiro signing, the Coyotes signed goalie Thomas Greiss to backup Mike Smith. The team also re-signed Lauri Korpikoski for a four-year, $10 million deal. The left winger scored 11 points in 36 games for Phoenix this season. The team gave free agent center Kyle Chipchura a one year deal.
Here are some Twitter reactions to Phoenix's signings.
