Atlantic Notes: Nosek, Maple Leafs, Gaudette, Spence

June 30, 2025 at 9:01 pm CDT | by Brian La Rose Leave a Comment

After re-signing Aaron Ekblad earlier today and agreeing to terms on a new contract for Brad Marchand, the Panthers might not be done just yet.  David Pagnotta of The Fourth Period reports (video link) that Florida is also working on a new contract for pending unrestricted free agent center Tomas Nosek.  The 32-year-old inked a one-year deal worth the league minimum of $775K on the opening day of free agency last summer and, when healthy, was largely a regular on their fourth line.  Nosek picked up a goal and eight assists in 59 games this past season while winning more than half his faceoffs for the eighth straight season.  Speculatively, should a new deal be reached, it should check in at or near the minimum salary once again.

Elsewhere in the Atlantic:

  • Even after adding Matias Maccelli earlier today, the Maple Leafs will likely want to make an addition on the wing. To that end, Chris Johnston of TSN and The Athletic noted in an appearance on TSN 1050 (audio link) that winger Nikolaj Ehlers “holds some appeal” for Toronto.  The 29-year-old is the number two player on our Top 50 UFA list and the top available with Mitch Marner on his way to Vegas in a move that’s expected to be made official soon.  Ehlers has scored at least 20 goals in eight of the last nine seasons and had 63 points in 69 games in 2024-25.
  • The Senators haven’t given up on trying to re-sign winger Adam Gaudette, notes Postmedia’s Bruce Garrioch (Twitter link). The 29-year-old wound up scoring a career-best 19 goals this past season after being an AHL regular the previous two seasons.  That has Gaudette in a position for a raise and a one-way deal; he checked in 43rd on our Top 50 UFA list.
  • At the draft, Los Angeles moved defenseman Jordan Spence to Ottawa but the Senators weren’t the only Atlantic team interested in his services. Daily Faceoff’s Jeff Marek reports that the Bruins were also in on the 24-year-old.  Spence had 28 points in 79 games this past season but had requested a trade in the hopes of finding a bigger role elsewhere.  Speculatively, had Boston landed Spence, they may not have turned around and re-signed Henri Jokiharju, who inked a three-year deal earlier today.
