LeBrun tweeted:

“Kyle Connor deal once finalized – which it isn’t yet – will be for between $7 M and $7.25 M aav x seven years. Paperwork still being worked on.”

I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game.
