Koistinen joins the 700 club

John Glennon at the Tennessean is reporting that Ville Koistinen has been awarded a $700,000 contract coming out of arbitration.

*yawn*

No word yet as to what each side was seeking, but the Predators now have their seven defensemen set for the upcoming season. I would expect that young guns like Sulzer and Franson will only get an NHL look if injuries open up opportunities, or a dynamite trade offer pries away one of the current group.
