Devils and Salvador make progress

From Mark Everson of the NY Post:

Contract talks between Bryce Salvador and Lou Lamoriello yesterday produced significant progress yesterday, the agent for impending unrestricted defenseman told The Post yesterday.

“We made progress on several items, and still have a few more to go,” agent Carlos Sosa said. “We’ll continue talking with the New Jersey Devils through Tuesday, and after Tuesday, too, if we still have more to do.”

Salvador is expected to net about $3 million per season, and it appears the sides are closing in on an agreement. The tough stay-at-home defenseman is a solid fit in New Jersey.
