As promised, here is the list for the East. There’s a lot of names, but not many players in their prime who could turn a team’s fortunes around.

Killorn said that he wanted to retire a Bolt, but $ talks.
Some talk here in STL that O'Reilly could come back to the Blues. What's your thoughts on that? Also, Luke Schenn joining his brother Brayden … ? Blues need a D-man that can play D. Is he that guy?
I really hope Penguins keep Zuker and Dumo. I'm not convinced they need a new goalie yet, but I don't see anyone that could replace Jarry in the Free Agent market. Might be best to hold onto him, at least until the trade deadline if possible
Dylan McIlrath isn’t on the Red Wings. He is with the Caps, and is the captain of the Hershey Bears. Played a handful of games with the Caps.
Thank you for all the information. Do not get in in-depth information here in Columbus Ohio. Thank YOU again. VERY INTERESTING.
I feel like Sabres will give an offer to Scott Mayfield so they get an experienced right-handed d-man to pair Power. Maybe 2×4 million if they have the cap space?
As a Sabres fan, I would love if Buffalo brought in either Gudas, Mayfield, or maybe even both. They would be a huge upgrade over Stillman/Lyubushkin/Bryson on the bottom pair D, and would certainly help to address a ton of issues, including the lack of physicality, overall defensive play, and help protect the young players.
Montreal would sign all three Staals so they can participate in the Canadiens Pride celebrations
I can see Yzerman at least trying to get Killorn and Gudas for the Wings. Might get outbid but they are probably an option
Haula wants to stay in Jersey and we want to keep him ❤
Straalman is still a quality dman
Florida in great shape for another run
Bergy to MTL!
I hate the idea of Zemgus not being w/ Buffalo for at least one more year, after all the difficult years he’s spent there. But there’s a lot of talent arriving soon in need of minutes, challenging for his place.
Mcelrath played for Washington
Haula is staying in NJ I’ve heard so many times that they wouldn’t want to be anywhere else and Fitzgerald wants him to stay
We love pius here in Detroit. Hard worker. Hope he stays. Couldn’t care less if any of the other ones go. It was disgusting to see players like erne and haag be put in over Soderblom/ Edvinnson. ..
Flat cap would benefit teams like Seattle who have cap space to fit in contracts for quality players with GMs on the other end of the spectrum forced to make unpleasant decisions.
Kings may need to consider Jarry to upgrade the goaltending.
Toronto should re-sign ROR, Acciari, Kampf and Schenn; everyone else can walk. They should also look at signing UFAs Bertuzzi, Orlov and Mott.
It'll be a shame if Hagelins career peters out this way. He had the same resurfacing surgery that Backy had so it's possible he never really plays consistently again in the NHL. As much as i love him as a player it's best the Caps move on from him and bring one of their young guys up from Hershey. Not to mention the possibility of getting one of Hathaway (back) or Bertuzzi
Not saying this would happen, but I'd be stoked if Wild could bring Haula in as a cheap center with speed to keep up with our top wingers. I know hes not a true number 1 that we've all been wanting but with the cap buyouts we have to be very cheap or hope Rossi is up to it next year.
All 3 Staals will end up in Pittsburgh mark my words
Why are you saying Varlamov is gone!? It's already known what Lou thinks about building a team from the goal out! The isles have one of the best tandems in hockey which you need to win! Varly has also stated he wants to stay and could come back on team friendly deal!
So many people have complained about Reimer, yet here he is, still making saves and helping his team game in and out.
Also, heard that O'Reilly and Schenn were surprised at how fractured the Leafs' dressing room was when they got there.
The "Welcome back" will never not make me happy 😇
I think Hellberg will be back in Detroit along with Alex Chiasson. Erne is gone along with Alex Nedeljkovic. Nedeljkovic is incredibly inconsistent and lets in soft goals. I think Dylan Mcllrath is in Washington now, not Detroit.
Most notable UFA in Ottawa is Hammonic? That's great. The only one who will be signed for us next year is Brassard either as a player or in the front office.
Jvr will be a good bargain deal if he signs for 1-2 mill
Varlamov and Jarry are the best goalies on the market
Kulikov is also one to watch for the Sillinger record. Pittsburgh was his 8th team
Isn’t Dylan McIllrath with the Hershey Bears of the Washington Capitals organization? He is their Captain and played a few games for Washington this year, not Detroit
I hope the canes re-sign ghost, I think he would benefit from a full season. Skjei struggled when he first arrived and had a great season this year.
McIlrath is a Washington Capitol/Hershey Bear, and hasn't played in Detroit since 2020. For real…
Crazy how big names really don’t mean much when the guys are past their prime. Could you imagine years ago saying there wasn’t big names hitting the market in the off-season where Kane, Toews and Bergeron come available 😂
Buffalo gets an A+ for contract management as of recent
I disagree with the Mikola toke. I thought he payed very well for NYR. Even had top 2 minutes with Fox when Lindgren was hurt.
