The Philadelphia Flyers made the playoffs for the first time since 2020, and the roster GM Danny Briere has assembled is intriguing at the top. Tyson Foerster, Travis Konecny, Matvei Michkov, Porter Martone, and Owen Tippett on the wings, give the Flyers as much winger depth as almost anyone in the East. The problem is down the middle, and it's been the problem for years. Sean Couturier is getting older and has been derailed by injuries. Christian Dvorak, re-signed on a five-year deal, i...
Pittsburgh Penguins forward Anthony Mantha had a career year this campaign, as he set new career highs with 33 goals, 31 assists, and 64 points in 81 games. With numbers like these, the Penguins should be working hard to keep him around. Yet, it would also be understandable if the 31-year-old winger decided to test the free-agent market while his value is at its highest. Due to this, let's look at three teams that could sign Mantha in free agency this summer if he does not sign an extension wi...

Montreal Canadiens goalie Samuel Montembeault will be a clear trade candidate to watch during the summer. With the Habs having young goalies Jakub Dobes and Jacob Fowler, it would not be surprising in the slightest if they traded Montembeault this offseason.

Yet, given Montembeault's resume, there could be some teams out there willing to take a...
The Dallas Stars have once again been one of the NHL's best teams this season. It is not surprising, as they have plenty of talent on their roster. As a result of this, it would not be surprising in the slightest if they look to continue to boost their group during the summer. The Calgary Flames, on the other hand, missed the playoffs and moved on from several notable players this campaign. They will likely continue to listen to offers on their top veteran players this summer. When looki...
