From the Atlanta Journal-Constitution:

Thursday’s news of the signing of Zach Bogosian puts the Thrashers one step closer to being ready for the season to open. There wasn’t a whole lot of suspense — after all, the NHL’s collective bargaining agreement sets strict limits for entry-level contracts — but it has to be good for all concerned that management and Bogosian got this out of the way before the prospect evaluation tournament in Traverse City, Mich., Sept. 13-17. You don’t want anything distracting your young future star from his hockey.

No surprise, just passing the information along.  Bogosian is expected to be one of the top young defensemen to come along in a while, so expectations will be high once he begins his career in Atlanta.
