According to insider Frank Seravalli, we’re now just about at “The Finalists” stage: Sources say the Maple Leafs are advancing to the ‘finalist’ stage of their interview process this week.

NHL Rumors: 3 Offseason Trade Fits for Rangers' Braden Schneider
The New York Rangers should make multiple changes to their roster as they continue their rebuild. One of their top trade candidates to watch this summer is pending restricted free agent (RFA) defenseman Braden Schneider. The right-shot blueliner was a popular name in the rumor mill leading up to this year's trade deadline, so it would not be surprising if he generated trade interest this offseason. Because of this, let's take a look at three teams that could look to trade for Schneider this of...
NHL Rumors: 3 Free-Agent Destinations for Panthers' A.J. Greer
While the Florida Panthers had a rough 2025-26 season, A.J. Greer had a career year with the Atlantic Division club. In 78 games this season with the Cats, he set new career highs with 17 goals, 15 assists, and 32 points. He also had 203 hits on the season.

Philadelphia Flyers The Flyers could b...
Macklin Celebrini Opens Up About His Sharks’ Future
There was no sophomore jinx for Macklin Celebrini. That's an understatement. The 19-year-old San Jose Sharks forward had one of the great sophomore seasons of all-time in the NHL in 2025-26. With just one year to run on his entry-level contract, he's eligible for an extension this summer. He's already being asked about his long-term future in San Jose, and Celebrini has made it clear that he sees a long and illustrious relationship for himself and the Sharks, indicating that a new extens...
NHL Rumors: 3 Florida Panthers Offseason Goalie Targets
The Florida Panthers will be an interesting team to watch this offseason. After missing the playoffs due to their significant injury trouble, it would not be surprising if they look to upgrade their roster. One of their biggest questions heading into the offseason is their goaltending situation. Sergei Bobrovsky is a pending unrestricted free agent, so they could be on the hunt for goaltending help if he walks. They also could use an upgrade over backup Daniil Tarasov in general, so let'...
Maple Leafs Rumors: Surprising Projection for Potential Morgan Rielly Trade
The talk of the Toronto Maple Leafs trying to trade Morgan Rielly has been ongoing since about this time last year. The 13-year veteran is a lifelong Leaf and the longest-serving member of the club. Most observers feel, though, that it's time to move on from Rielly and remake the blueline. However, there's the little issue of a hefty contract and a full no-move clause. The 32-year-old has to agree to a deal first. With a whopping four years remaining on his deal at a $7.5 million c...
Does Ondrej Palat have a Future In The NHL After This Season?
The New York Islanders have finished the season without making the playoffs. The team unceremoniously fired coach Patrick Roy after losing four games in a row on Apr. 6th, 2026. General manager Matthieu Darche would hire Peter DeBoer as coach, as he looks to reshape the team in his image. Now, as the playoffs begin to ramp up, there remain questions about the players on the roster. The team has seven free agents, and -$3.8 million in cap space . Difficult decisions wil...
Carey Price Attempted NHL Comeback Last Season
There's a ton of speculation circulating online that goaltender Carey Price attempted an NHL comeback last season. Yes, it's hard to confirm as it wasn't from Price directly, but someone who connected with the former Montreal Canadiens goalie in recent days reports that Price mentioned he attempted to make a comeback at some point last season, but shut things down once the knee pain was too much to ignore. Home from Moncton. Was amazing meeting Carey Price. Was crazy hearing his story about at...

Nick Robertson Isn't Committing to Re-Signing With Maple Leafs
The Toronto Maple Leafs put on a dismal performance throughout the entire regular season, missing the Stanley Cup Playoffs in surprising fashion. Forward Nick Robertson is one of the many players who aren't likely to return next season, and as a pending restricted free agent, Robertson isn't shy talking about the elephant in the room. Robertson spoke to the media to finish out the year, and made it very clear, he's unsure what the future holds. The pesky winger has been in and out of the lineu...
The Flames Original Asking Price for Rasmus Andersson Revealed: It's Bonkers
Ramus Andersson was traded to the Vegas Golden Knights on Jan. 18, 2026. The Golden Knights paid a pretty penny for a right-shot defenseman who has yet to sign an extension with the team. General manager Kelly McCrimmon's entire philosophy is a mercenary outlook to building a roster, whatever it takes, quick turnover, and for those who don't fit, an unceremonious exit. As the team has entered the Stanley Cup playoffs under newly-hired head coach John Tortorella, you have to wonder...
These 7 Candidates+ Have Interviewed for Maple Leafs Front Office Job

NHL Rumors: 3 Free-Agent Destinations for Blackhawks' Ilya Mikheyev
Chicago Blackhawks forward Ilya Mikheyev will be a player to watch now that the offseason is here for the Original Six club. The 31-year-old forward is a pending unrestricted free agent (UFA), and it will be interesting to see if the Blackhawks extend him. He has been a very good addition for them, but it would also make sense if he tested the market after his strong season. In 77 games this season, he had 18 goals and a career-high 36 points. If Mikheyev ends up becoming a UFA this year, look...
NHL Rumors: Canucks & Jets Emerging as Potential Trade Partners
The Vancouver Canucks will be a team to watch very closely during the offseason. With the Canucks in the middle of a rebuild and finishing this season as the NHL's worst team, it is very possible that they will move on from more of their players during the offseason. The Jets, meanwhile, should be looking to add to their roster after underperforming this campaign and missing the playoffs in the weak Western Conference. One of their biggest needs is a top-six winger, as they have never found a ...
3 Free-Agent Destinations for Red Wings' James van Riemsdyk
The Detroit Red Wings are entering the summer with multiple pending free agents. One of them is veteran forward James van Riemsdyk. The 36-year-old winger proved to be a solid depth addition for the Red Wings this season, as he had 15 goals and 31 points in 72 games.

If the 2007 second-overall pick becomes an unrestricted free agent (UFA), these three teams could look to sign him. ...

Sunny Mehta, here's your chance to change the direction of the New Jersey Devils.

Hellebuyck was very close to signing with the Devils a few summers ago, and surprisingly signed an extension with the Jets. Sportsnet's Elliott...
Blue Jackets Have a Lot of Work to Get Done This Summer
The Columbus Blue Jackets announced on April 16 that head coach Rick Bowness has signed a one-year contract extension, returning for the 2026-27 season. That is a significant item crossed off GM Don Waddell's list, and it clears the way for him to focus on what is shaping up to be one of the more complicated offseasons in recent franchise history. Bowness did not go quietly into the summer. After a season-ending 2-1 loss to Washington that knocked Columbus out of playoff contention for the...

Toronto Media Calls Out William Nylander For Lack Of Leadership
The Toronto Maple Leafs are a mess, and it was evident as ever during their end-of-season media availability. Specifically, the way William Nylander handled himself during his scrum had several members of the Toronto media landscape shaking their heads.

It's tough after a disappointing season like that to come out and answer a lot of the same questions that have been asked for weeks, but at the end of the day it's...
