5 Restricted Free Agents Still Unsigned With Camp Approaching
Training camp is about a month away, and 18 restricted free agents remain unsigned around the league. Per Daily Faceoff , the Philadelphia Flyers' offer sheet for Leo Carlsson back in July "chucked a grenade" into the RFA market, resetting price expectations across the board and complicating negotiations that teams had budgeted for well before that number existed. Here are the five names left on the market who stand out above the rest. The Two Names With Real Offer-Sheet Leverage ...
Canadiens & Senators Becoming Potential Trade Partners
The Montreal Canadiens may have a new name to watch on the trade market this fall, and it's coming from within their own division. Per Marco D'Amico on The Starr & D'Amico Show , the Canadiens could be interested in Ottawa Senators winger Drake Batherson if the Senators are unable to sign him to a contract extension. There's no indication Kent Hughes and Ottawa GM Steve Staios are negotiating a trade right now, but Montreal appears to be a team worth watching if the Senators' contract si...
Atlantic Division Team Urged To Make A Push For Dylan Larkin
Dylan Larkin has presented the Detroit Red Wings with a three-team trade list, but up to now, it doesn't feel like a deal is brewing with any of those teams. In fact, a recent report even suggests that two of his preferred destinations are out . So where does that leave a new Red Wings front office (whenever it's named) in its ability to grant their captain's trade request? Adam Proteau of The Hockey News has urged the Boston Bruins to step up to the plate and try to convince...
Video: Brad Marchand Apologizes For Late Surgery, Doubtful To Start Season
The Florida Panthers ' 2025-26 season was derailed by injuries right off the bat, with Aleksander Barkov going down for the year in training camp. They'll now be facing another issue before camp even gets underway, though hopefully not as major of a deal. Brad Marchand has undergone surgery and is doubtful for the start of the new season. He has apologized to fans for the last-minute nature of his decision. Marchand had tried to rehab an officially undisclosed lingering injury from...
Report: Red Wings Trying to 'Reconcile' With Dylan Larkin
The Dylan Larkin saga in Detroit continues to drag on. And with it, come numerous and wildly varying reports. While we heard recently from Red Wings beat writer Helene St. James that Larkin is still holding firm on his trade demand even with the departure of hockey boss Steve Yzerman, now comes a report that the Red Wings are, in fact, working to 'reconcile' with their captain. Daily Faceoff's Anthony Di Marco said on the Campbell vs. Gallo show this past week that the Yzerman ouster was...
Details Revealed For Bobrovsky Choosing Maple Leafs Over Panthers
According to a new revelation, legendary Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky was all set to take a big pay cut to stay with the team, but a dispute over a no-trade clause caused him to ditch South Florida and sign with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Daria Tuboltseva reports in rg.org that Bobrovsky was willing to take a significant discount to remain in Florida and, in fact, agreed to their final offer, financially, which was for a two-year, $6 million AAV deal. But there was one key ...

Toronto Maple Leafs continue to be active in trade market
The Toronto Maple Leafs are now John Chayka and Mats Sundin's team, and while there's already been significant roster changes this offseason, speculation continues that the Leafs continue to be active in trade discussions. Chayka has never been shy throughout his NHL tenure, and now that he's back in the mix, he's been creating relationships with onlooking executives and has easily made multiple trades in Toronto. Dennis Hildeby moved, Simon Benoit dealt, Joseph Woll shipped out, Brandon Carlo...
Limited NHL interest in free-agent Evander Kane
Evander Kane has been spending his time lately battling it out on X with beat reporters from his old teams, and from the sounds of it, the free-agent forward hasn't had many NHL contract offers to mull over this summer. Kane's coming off a very tough season. The rugged winger posted 13 goals and 31 points in 71 games, and now at 35 years old, has seen some serious regression to his game. He's lost a step, he's not as physical as he once was, and the scoring touch is limited. Kane's actions on...
Quinn Hughes continues to be linked to New Jersey Devils
The Minnesota Wild are trying to navigate a very delicate situation, as defenceman Quinn Hughes has yet to sign a contract extension. Hughes has one year left on his contract in Minnesota, and with a lack of progress on an extension, the New Jersey Devils continue to circle the waters. With Quinn having his two brothers on the Devils, many around the industry feel it's just a matter of time before he signs a long-term contract to join both Jack and Luke in New Jersey. The Wild gave up four si...

Division Rival Could Offer Sheet Blue Jackets' Adam Fantilli
A month ago, the Philadelphia Flyers were reportedly finished making aggressive offseason swings. Now that stance is being questioned again, and the name at the center of it is Columbus Blue Jackets center Adam Fantilli. Per William James of Philly Hockey Now , the Flyers should consider returning to the offer-sheet route and revisiting Fantilli's availability, a reversal from where the conversation stood just weeks earlier. Why This Seemed Closed Anthony Di Marco of Daily Faceoff had repo...
Legendary Flames Radio Personality Passes Away Tragically At The Age of 79
The Calgary Flames announced the passing of legendary radio personality Peter Maher at the age of 79 on Thursday.

Maher was the voice of the Flames during multiple Stanley Cup runs in 1989 and 2014. His trademark calls became a part of fans' hockey slang, synonymous with the franch...
Insider Says Oilers To Look At Trade For Center
For the first time in a long time, the Edmonton Oilers will be heading into the new season with some cap space to work with. Currently, about $4.725 million worth. GM Stan Bowman recently expressed some excitement at this prospect, as he told insider Bob Stauffer on Oilers Now . “That’s more than enough. You don’t even need that much to start the year.

Zach Werenski Meets With Media & Makes Definitive Statement About His Future
In a stark admission, Norris Trophy-winning defenseman Zach Werenski has seemingly put to rest months of speculation surrounding his future with the Columbus Blue Jackets. He met with the media on Thursday and publicly stated he would have "no issues" being with the team past the end of his current contract, which expires in two years.

Two Teams On Dylan Larkin's 3-Team List Appear To Be OUT
The Dylan Larkin drama continues to play out in Detroit, but of his three-team trade list, it appears that only one is a realistic destination at this point, while the other two are OUT.

Video: Ottawa Senators Rejected Multiple Draft-Day Trade Offers
The Ottawa Senators have been a team to watch this offseason, as they've flipped their team on it's head, trading captain Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers. Tkachuk reportedly wasn't the same in the dressing room once he returned from winning a gold medal with Team USA, and many Senators felt this was coming at some point this summer. General manager Steve Staios had to move on, and the Tkachuk deal wasn't the only trade discussed by Ottawa this offseason. At the NHL Draft in June, Staios ...
Free-Agent Michael Bunting Linked To 3 Teams
The NHL's free-agent market still has a few proven forwards among those available, and Michael Bunting is one of the best wingers left on the open market. The free-agent winger has yet to sign a contract for next season, despite being linked to several teams throughout the summer. Bunting's a pest, he plays an in-your-face style of game, he's not afraid to muck it up in the dirty areas of the ice, and he's shown in the past he has finishing abilities around the front of the net. Last season, B...
Blue Jackets & Golden Knights Linked To Offseason Trade
Keep an eye on the offseason trade market, as while action has slowed down of late for NHL transactions, it sounds like there could be a deal brewing between the Vegas Golden Knights and Columbus Blue Jackets. The Golden Knights have been shopping goaltender Adin Hill and would love to try and land Elvis Merzlikins from the Blue Jackets in return. This trade would materialize into a bigger package than just a goalie swap, but this is the first time in the offseason that Hill's been linked to a...

The Philadelphia Flyers ' search for help on the blue line is leading them back to a familiar name. Per Marco D'Amico , the Flyers have "kicked tires" on New York Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov, a player Philadelphia also pursued last offseason before he ultimately re-signed with New York.
