    CapFriendly outlines the cap charge that Florida will carry due to Yandle’s buy-out:

    Yandle will be in an interesting situation as a free agent as he’s a depth defenseman at this point of his career, but he carries a current streak of 922 consecutive games played, second all-time to Doug Jarvis. His new team will need to tread on that situation carefully. Yandle was a healthy scratch for Florida in the playoffs, which didn’t end his regular season streak.

    I wonder if the Montreal Canadiens might be a fit for Yandle. They reportedly were after Tony DeAngelo at the trade deadline and landed on Erik Gustavsson for a role that was largely powerplay based. Yandle played junior hockey in Moncton, New Brunswick.

  • Habs Might Not Protect Weber Due to Injuries

    Shea Weber is questionable to play next season and possibly beyond due to injuries to his knee, ankle and thumb.

    This creates a big hole on the right side of the Canadiens defense, which will complicate their quest to get back into the playoffs in a very competitive Atlantic Division.

    The situation clears up Montreal’s expansion problem, they can now protect both Jake Edmundson and Ben Chiarot.

  • Penguins Re-Sign Teddy Blueger

    The Penguins have re-signed Teddy Blueger to a 2-year deal with an AAV of $2.2 million.

    In NHL Trade Rumors’ Mock Expansion Draft, Blueger was Seattle’s pick from the Penguins.

    In 43 games last season, Blueger had 7 goals and 15 assists for the Penguins.

  • Bruins Sign Brandon Carlo

    The Boston Bruins have re-signed Brandon Carlo to a 6-year deal.

    The deal covers 2 RFA years and 4 UFA years for Carlo. He will be 30 when the contract expires.

    Carlo was second on the Bruins playing 22:30 per game in 2020-21.

  • Suter and Parise Being Bought-Out by Wild

    According to Michael Russo, the Minnesota Wild are buying out both Zach Parise and Ryan Suter.

    The writing was on the wall for Parise, but Suter comes as a surprise. The pair will carry buy-out cap hits through 2028-29, including cap hits exceeding $7 million in 2023-24 and 2024-25.

    This clears up Minnesota’s expansion problem nicely, however. They can now protect Matt Dumba while still protecting 7 forwards.

  • Seravalli: Getzlaf Likely Staying in Anaheim

    On the DFO Rundown Podcast, reports that he believes that Ryan Getzlaf isn’t going anywhere.

    He says a new 1-year deal is likely, but the Ducks would like to wait until after the expansion draft so they can protect more of their young forwards.

    Getzlaf, 36, has played 1101 games for the Ducks over his career, putting up 279 goals and 703 assists.

  • Duncan Keith Being Traded to Edmonton

    According to Frank Seravalli, Duncan Keith will be going to Edmonton.

    Caleb Jones was of interest to Chicago, as they are trying to trade for his brother Seth from the Blue Jackets.
