Free Agent Notes: Marchand, Gavrikov, Provorov, Granlund, Faksa, Pezzetta

at CDT | by 5 Comments

If the Panthers can’t get a deal done to keep Brad Marchand in Florida before the market opens tomorrow, Darren Dreger of TSN expects the Bruins, Mammoth, and Maple Leafs to be his most aggressive suitors in free agency.

A Boston reunion would be surprising given there’s been no change in the front office that wasn’t willing to match Marchand’s cheaper requests for an extension during the season, resulting in the Bruins trading their captain to the Panthers at the deadline. Nonetheless, it’s a financially feasible move for them and one that would address their rather significant need for top-six forwards. The club still has $12.74MM in cap space after getting extensions done for names like John Beecher, Morgan Geekie, and Henri Jokiharju in the last 24 hours, per PuckPedia. Marchand would likely command a contract in the $8MM range annually if he hits the open market.

While Utah has seemed to dial back its rhetoric of making a significant free agent splash, instead placing complete trust in its young core and opting for more youthful pickups via trade, like JJ Peterka, Marchand might make more sense on a shorter-term contract. They still have nearly $15MM in cap space and enter 2025-26 with one of the youngest forward groups in the league – their only forwards 30 or older are Alexander Kerfoot and Liam O’Brien.

The Leafs also have their cap flexibility for Tuesday dialed in after getting rather affordable extensions done for Matthew Knies ($7.75MM) and John Tavares ($4.38MM AAV) in the last few days. They’d presumably be one of the more appealing fits for Marchand to remain both with a contending team and in a top-six role, potentially even seeing top-line minutes in place of the departing Mitch Marner.

Here are a few more rumors from around the NHL ahead of the official start of free agency on Tuesday:

  • Pierre LeBrun of TSN and The Athletic relays that the Kings are making a last-ditch effort today to reach an extension with defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov. While general manager Ken Holland said over the weekend he expects Gavrikov to test the market, L.A. still hasn’t heard back from Gavrikov’s camp on their final offer.
  • While things were quiet on extension talks between the Blue Jackets and defenseman Ivan Provorov for weeks, they re-engaged in negotiations yesterday, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports. They presumably decided getting yesterday’s extension for Dante Fabbro done, ensuring they retain depth on their weaker right side of the blue line, was a priority over Provorov’s talks.
  • Center Mikael Granlund and the Stars continue to have mutual interest in an extension, according to LeBrun. It still looks unlikely something will get done before tomorrow with the Stars having just $980K in projected cap space for next season, but they could reach a handshake agreement if Dallas is confident they can move out other contracts to make Granlund’s money work. They’ve already been successful in retaining vets Jamie Benn and Matt Duchene on below-market-value deals.
  • Depth pivot Radek Faksa will have plenty of options tomorrow if he reaches the market, given the lack of centers available, but there’s still the possibility he stays with the Blues. The two sides remain in extension talks, says Jeremy Rutherford of The Athletic.
  • The Maple Leafs are among the teams expected to have interest in Canadiens enforcer Michael Pezzetta, assuming he hits the market tomorrow, reports LeBrun.

Penguins Hire Mike Stothers As Assistant Coach

at CDT | by 1 Comment

Coaching veteran Mike Stothers is joining Dan Muse’s coaching staff with the Penguins, the team announced Monday.

After ending a playing career that included brief NHL stops with the Flyers and Maple Leafs in the 1980s, Stothers transitioned into coaching as an assistant with the AHL’s Hershey Bears in 1991. That was before Hershey’s days as the Capitals’ affiliate – they were affiliated with the Flyers at the time – and Stothers stayed with the Flyers organization as an AHL assistant when they reached a new affiliation with the Philadelphia Phantoms in 1996. He then landed his first NHL job, serving as an assistant on the Flyers’ bench under Craig Ramsay and Bill Barber for the 2000-01 and 2001-02 seasons.

Stothers has since made more than his fair share of coaching stops in both the professional and junior ranks. He spent time as a head coach with OHL Owen Sound (2002-07), AHL Grand Rapids (2007-08), WHL Moose Jaw (2011-14), and AHL Manchester/Ontario (2014-20). He also worked as an assistant in the NHL with the Thrashers in 2010-11 and most recently with the Ducks from 2021 to 2023.

The 63-year-old is a two-time Calder Cup champion as a coach and will serve as the veteran presence on an extremely young Pittsburgh coaching staff. It’ll be a big bench with four assistants instead of the standard three to help Muse, 42, as a first-time NHL head coach. The Penguins also have former player Nick Bonino on their staff in his first coaching role, following his retirement announcement.

Bruins Extend Henri Jokiharju, John Beecher, Michael DiPietro

at CDT | by 2 Comments

The Bruins announced a trio of extensions Monday, keeping defenseman Henri Jokiharju and goaltender Michael DiPietro away from UFA status and forward John Beecher away from RFA status. Jokiharju’s contract is a three-year deal at $9MM for a $3MM cap hit, Beecher’s deal is a one-year, one-way contract at $900,000, while DiPietro’s deal is a two-year contract worth $1.625MM in total and $812,500 annually.

Boston retains Jokiharju after general manager Don Sweeney said last week they were working on an extension with the right-shot defender. He would have been among the youngest options on the open market after turning 26 two weeks ago, but instead, he stays with the Bruins on a multi-year deal. Addressing their absence of depth on the right side of the blue line was a priority for Boston this summer, and absent from making a big splash for top UFA Aaron Ekblad, there weren’t a ton of upgrades available at the position on the UFA market. Dante Fabbro may have been one, but he extended with the Blue Jackets yesterday.

The Bruins acquired Jokiharju, who had spent most of his NHL career with the Sabres, from Buffalo at the 2024 trade deadline for a 2026 fourth-round pick. The 6’0″ Finn was a good fit in Boston after a tough year with the Sabres, posting four assists and a plus-seven rating in 18 games to end the season while averaging north of 21 minutes per game. His defensive impacts were admirable as he had to play far more than he usually would with Hampus Lindholm and Charlie McAvoy both injured. As a result, he likely left some earnings on the table with this extension. AFP Analytics projected Jokiharju to receive a three-year deal at $3.6MM per season.

He won’t receive that kind of deployment again with McAvoy presumably back in the fold to start next season, but he should slot in as No. 2 on the depth chart on a pairing with either Lindholm or Nikita Zadorov. The Bruins still have $12.7MM in cap space after today’s moves with no notable RFAs to re-sign, according to PuckPedia. They could still pursue an additional righty in addition to a forward pickup or two, but for now, Jokiharju looks set to replace the top-four role that Brandon Carlo held for so many years until his trade to the Maple Leafs at the deadline.

Jokiharju’s contract will pay him a $2.5MM base salary and a $500,000 signing bonus in 2025-26, a $3MM base salary and a $250,000 signing bonus in 2026-27, and a $2.75MM base salary in 2027-28, according to PuckPedia. He also lands an eight-team no-trade clause for next season.

Beecher, the Bruins’ first-round pick in 2019, returns on a deal that comes in slightly north of his $874,125 qualifying offer. The 6’3″ pivot firmly established himself as a full-time bottom-six forward last season after appearing in 52 regular-season games in 2023-24. He’s put together a 10-11–21 scoring line in 130 games across his two NHL seasons, posting a -15 rating while averaging 11:01 of ice time per game. He flexes between center and wing but has been great on draws, winning 53.2% of faceoffs over a decently large sample.

His possession impacts leave something to be desired, but that’ll happen when a player receives as pure a shutdown role as Beecher has. He’s seen a dZS% of 83.6 at even strength for his career, including 82.3% in 2024-25. While the 24-year-old isn’t on track to realize his first-round potential, he is a perfectly serviceable fourth-line piece, particularly at a sub-$1MM price tag.

As for DiPietro, their No. 3 netminder would have had multiple offers on the open market, but instead stays with Boston. While there isn’t an immediate pathway to an NHL role for him, there could be one if the Bruins opt to trade backup Joonas Korpisalo. He has three seasons left on his contract at a $3MM cap hit, which could be an appealing deal for teams looking to add a goalie amid a weak free agent market.

It’s the first one-way deal of DiPietro’s career, although it’s equivalent to a league-minimum one. He’ll earn $775,000 in 2025-26 and $850,000 in 2026-27, per PuckPedia, the latter of which is expected to be the new league-minimum salary when the new Collective Bargaining Agreement is officially ratified. The 26-year-old hasn’t yet seen NHL action for Boston but was exceptional for AHL Providence in 2024-25, posting a .927 SV%, 2.05 GAA, four shutouts, and a 26-8-7 record in 40 games.

Senators Sign Claude Giroux To One-Year Extension

at CDT | by 4 Comments

The Senators and pending UFA Claude Giroux are “putting the finishing touches” on an extension, Chris Johnston of TSN and The Athletic reports. The Senators have since confirmed the deal. It’s a one-year contract with a base salary of $2MM and up to an additional $2.75MM in performance bonuses, while including a no-movement clause. The full bonus structure is as follows, per PuckPedia:

20 games played: $250K
30 games played: $250K
60 games played: $250K
Playoff berth + 50 RS GP: $250K
First round win: $500K
Second round win: $250K
East Final win: $500K
Stanley Cup win (50% of GP): $500K

Giroux, while in the twilight years of his career, still could have likely landed more than a $4.75MM figure in maximum compensation on the open market, especially on a one-year deal. Instead, the 37-year-old will remain in Ottawa’s top nine forward group for another year as he looks to help guide the club to back-to-back postseason appearances for the first time since 2012 and 2013.

While his offense has been in decline for a few years now, the 18-year NHLer remains an effective secondary scoring piece. He finished fifth on the Sens in scoring last year with a 15-35–50 line in 81 games. He still saw over 18 minutes per game, a number that will presumably drop by some next season. Despite spending most of his time on the wing, he was still Ottawa’s primary faceoff taker over frequent linemate Tim Stützle and won a team-leading 600 draws with a career-best 61.5% win rate.

His return, especially at an affordable base price, gives Ottawa one less roster spot to worry about while providing them with a tad more spending flexibility this summer than they previously anticipated. They have $8.2MM in space remaining, according to PuckPedia, and no notable RFAs to re-sign. That money will presumably mostly go toward filling out their forward depth – they addressed their need for a right-shot defender yesterday by acquiring Jordan Spence from the Kings.

If he tested the market, Giroux would have been among the more desirable forward options still available, particularly after Sam Bennett’s and John Tavares’ extensions. He was No. 10 on our list of this summer’s unrestricted free agents.

Ducks Sign Ville Husso To Two-Year Extension

at CDT | by 14 Comments

The Ducks announced Sunday they’ve signed depth netminder Ville Husso to a two-year extension. PuckPedia reports the deal is worth $4.4MM with a $2.2MM cap hit.

It’s a peculiar contract for Anaheim to dole out, given they already acquired young starter Lukáš Dostál’s presumed backup for next season. They recouped fellow Czech netminder Petr Mrázek in yesterday’s trade that sent veteran netminder John Gibson to the Red Wings, and he’s signed through next year at a $4.25MM cap hit. General manager Pat Verbeek indicated he fully intended on keeping Mrázek next season after the deal went through yesterday, per Zach Cavanagh of The Sporting Tribune.

That turns Husso into an extremely expensive third-string option who still will cost the Ducks $1.05MM against the cap if he’s buried with AHL San Diego. The two-year term does at least ensure the backup position behind Dostál for another year past 2025-26, and Anaheim is still far off from needing to worry about running into the salary cap’s Upper Limit, but it still far exceeds what Husso likely would have commanded on the open market. AFP Analytics projected Husso to receive a one-year, league minimum contract.

Husso, 30, is finishing up his three-year, $14.25MM contract he signed with the Red Wings in 2022 following a breakout season with the Blues. Husso’s spectacular platform year saw him finish seventh in Vezina Trophy voting after posting a .919 SV% with a 25-7-6 record in 40 games for St. Louis, but they were reluctant to bet on him as their future starter over Cup champion Jordan Binnington.

That was a prudent move on the Blues’ part. Husso has gone on to post a .894 SV% and 3.25 GAA in 88 appearances in the three years since, spending portions of the last two years in the AHL after starting 56 games for Detroit in the first year of the deal. He was especially underwhelming in his brief NHL action with Detroit this past year, posting a .866 SV% and 1-5-2 record in nine games before being traded to the Ducks for future considerations in February as Anaheim craved goaltending depth amid a rash of injuries.

Husso had a strong finish to the year, posting a .925 SV% in three starts and one relief appearance, but that’s not a large enough sample size to warrant such a lucrative contract after falling out of a regular NHL role entirely. Barring an injury to Mrázek or a contract holdout on Dostál’s part (he’s an RFA this summer), Husso will likely spend most of 2025-26 in San Diego, where he had a .907 SV% in nine games with a 7-2-0 record after the trade.

Bruins Re-Sign Marat Khusnutdinov, Michael Callahan

at CDT | by Leave a Comment

The Bruins have signed pending free agents Marat Khusnutdinov and Michael Callahan to new deals, the team announced Sunday. Khusnutdinov gets a two-year, $1.85MM deal worth $925K per season, while Callahan gets a two-way contract for next year with a $775K cap hit. Callahan was slated to become a Group VI UFA, while Khusnutdinov could have had arbitration rights as an RFA.

While Boston’s thin prospect pool got a much-needed injection with this year’s draft, Khusnutdinov remains one of the organization’s more intriguing young centers. The Russian pivot, 23 in July, was acquired from the Wild in the deadline deal that sent winger Justin Brazeau to Minnesota. The Wild had previously selected him in the second round in 2020, and 2024-25 was his first full season in North America after signing his entry-level contract at the tail end of 2023-24.

Khusnutdinov had an underwhelming start to the season in the North Star State. He was a fine fourth-line piece on a team that relied on checking/defensive acumen from its depth forwards, but offense was hard to come by. He had some of the league’s worst advanced numbers in that regard, and his boxcar stats backed that up with only two goals and seven points in 57 games, averaging 11:14 per game.

The move to Boston seemed to breathe new life into the young center. It’s not as if his offense popped in a big way, but he did show more legitimate upside as a top-nine piece. He saw his deployment increase to 14:47 per game and was shifted to the wing, scoring five points in 18 games along with vastly improved possession impacts. The Moscow native should be penciled into a bottom-six role to begin next season as he looks to rediscover the offensive upside he displayed back home in Russia, scoring 41 points in 63 KHL games for SKA St. Petersburg in 2022-23.

Callahan will return to presumably serve a depth role in AHL Providence if he clears waivers. The 25-year-old Massachusetts native made his NHL debut this past season amid a rash of injuries on the Boston blue line, scoring a goal and logging a minus-five rating in 17 games while averaging 14:09 per night. He was used exclusively as a defensive specialist, unsurprisingly, given his lack of offense at the minor league level. The 6’2″ lefty had nine points and a plus-three rating in 45 games for Providence. He’s been an alternate captain for the P-Bruins the last two seasons and will now continue his run in the Boston organization, which signed him coming out of Providence College after the Coyotes selected him in the fifth round in 2018.

Blue Jackets Sign Dante Fabbro To Four-Year Extension

at CDT | by 22 Comments

The Blue Jackets have signed defenseman Dante Fabbro to a four-year, $16.5MM extension to keep him from becoming a free agent on Tuesday, the team announced. The deal will carry a cap hit of $4.125MM. Fabbro receives a no-trade clause for 2025-26 as part of the deal, Aaron Portzline of The Athletic reports. His deal is paid entirely in base salary aside from a $1MM up-front signing bonus, per PuckPedia. His full no-trade clause drops to a 10-team NTC for 2026-27 and 2027-28 and again to a five-time NTC in 2028-29.

It’s a major bit of business for Columbus, and the expected outcome after FanDuel Sports Network’s Andy Strickland reported earlier this month that a long-term deal was on the horizon. Fabbro was one of two top-four defenders for them who could have hit the open market alongside Ivan Provorov. He was the No. 16 UFA on our Top 50 board and the third-highest-ranked right-shot defenseman behind Aaron Ekblad and Brent Burns.

While Provorov’s future remains uncertain, the Jackets will at least keep their top pairing intact heading into next season. It’s also a remarkable turnaround for Fabbro, who goes from waiver claim to a well-compensated top-four piece in a matter of months. The first-round pick of the Predators in 2016 had fallen out of a regular spot in their lineup at the beginning of this past season, going pointless in six games before landing on the wire in early November.

Columbus picked him up as a replacement for veteran d-man Erik Gudbranson, who needed early-season shoulder surgery and was going to miss most of the campaign. They experimented with Fabbro in top-pairing duties alongside star Zach Werenski and never looked back. Fabbro remained stapled to Werenski’s side for the remainder of the year, posting a career-high 26 points and +23 rating in 62 games for the Jackets while averaging 21:39 per game.

The Blue Jackets, already armed with plenty of spending flexibility, now have their top pairing locked in for the next three seasons, the remaining term on Werenski’s deal, for a quite reasonable $13.71MM combined cap hit. There’s no reason to believe Fabbro will get separated from Werenski anytime soon – he excelled in a support role, and only five pairings in the league spent more time together than they did (1,009 minutes) despite Fabbro spending the first few weeks of the year in Nashville.

Columbus GM Don Waddell called Fabbro’s extension a “priority” in the team’s announcement. The 27-year-old will now spend his peak years in Columbus on a deal that he could have likely beaten to some degree on the open market, and he’ll have the opportunity to be compensated again at age 31 in 2029. Their attention now turns to either re-upping Provorov or finding a replacement, either on the open market or via trade, to serve as their No. 2 lefty behind Werenski. They could also look to elevate 2022 first-rounder Denton Mateychuk into that role – he already spent a lot of time with Provorov in 2024-25.

The Jackets still have $28.53MM in cap space after signing Fabbro, according to PuckPedia. They still need new deals for pending RFAs Dmitri Voronkov and Jordan Harris, although the latter could be a non-tender candidate.

Darren Dreger of TSN was first to report Fabbro’s extension.

Sharks Re-Sign Gabriel Carriere To Two-Way Deal

at CDT | by 3 Comments

June 29: San Jose confirmed Carriere’s re-signing Sunday in a team release.

June 27: The Sharks have re-signed pending RFA goaltender Gabriel Carriere to a two-way deal for next season, PuckPedia reported Thursday. It carries a $795K cap hit, including a $20K signing bonus and $775K NHL salary. He’ll earn an $85K salary while in the minors with a total salary guarantee of $100K.

Carriere, 24, signed his first NHL contract with the Sharks a few months ago. The undrafted free agent out of the University of Vermont was in his first professional season on a minor-league deal with AHL San Jose. However, the Sharks needed to get another goalie under contract before the trade deadline, with top prospect Yaroslav Askarov injured and backup Vítek Vaněček traded to the Panthers. That temporarily left them with only two healthy goalies, Alexandar Georgiev and Georgi Romanov, under NHL contract, so they signed Carriere in case one of them sustained an injury.

The Ottawa native had an impressive showing in the minors after toiling behind a weak Vermont team as the starter for most of his time in college. He made 47 appearances, split almost evenly between the AHL and ECHL. He was imposing in the latter league with the Wichita Thunder, posting a 2.60 GAA and a .922 SV% in 25 games – good for three shutouts and a 14-9-2 record. Carriere’s numbers understandably dipped during his AHL call-ups, though. He was easily the worst of the Barracuda’s three regular netminders (himself, Askarov, and Romanov), logging a .894 SV%, 3.06 GAA, and a 10-9-3 record in 22 games.

Nonetheless, his ECHL showing out of the gate was worth another look. The Sharks also haven’t made any other moves to address their lack of goaltending depth, although they should be expected to do so on July 1. For now, at least, Carriere becomes just the second goalie in the organization signed for next season alongside Askarov, who’s beginning a two-year, $4MM extension as he makes the jump to full-time NHL minutes.

Islanders Re-Sign Liam Foudy, Julien Gauthier To Two-Way Deals

at CDT | by Leave a Comment

The Islanders are bringing back forwards Liam Foudy and Julien Gauthier for 2025-26 on two-way contracts, per a club announcement Sunday. Foudy’s financial terms haven’t been disclosed. However, PuckPedia reports that Gauthier will earn an NHL salary of $775K and a minor-league salary of $325K, with a $425K guarantee. Foudy was slated to become an RFA with arbitration rights on Tuesday, while Gauthier could have become a UFA.

Both are presumably destined for waivers in October and, if they clear, tons of ice time with AHL Bridgeport. They’ll hope to retain the seasoned pros as reinforcements for their struggling minor-league affiliate, which finished last in the AHL this season with a 15-50-4-3 record, including just four home wins. They’ve already made progress in replacing the entire coaching staff for the Baby Isles, naming former Flyers assistant Rocky Thompson as their new head coach last week.

The Islanders signed Foudy to a two-way deal last summer after he went non-tendered by the Predators, who claimed the 2018 first-round pick off waivers from Columbus but ended up stashing him in the minors for most of 2023-24 anyway. While the 25-year-old did get a pair of NHL games with the Isles early in the year, he successfully cleared waivers this time around and spent most of the year in Bridgeport. The versatile depth forward was one of just two Baby Isles to hit the 20-goal mark, adding 25 assists for 45 points. His eye-popping -31 rating was more a result of the team’s overall struggles than poor individual defensive play.

He’ll look to leverage his strong skating ability into increased offensive production for Bridgeport next year in hopes of earning more NHL opportunities than he did in 2024-25. He’s appeared in six straight NHL seasons with Columbus, Nashville, and New York but only has 104 appearances to his name, recording 22 points and a -29 rating for his career.

Gauthier, meanwhile, returns for his third season in the Islanders organization after signing a two-year, $1.58MM contract in 2023 following a non-tender by the Senators. He made a lone appearance for the Islanders back in October before returning to Bridgeport, where his season was cut short by an injury in late November. He did manage three goals and eight points in nine games for the club before landing on the injured list, though.

The 6’4″, 225-lb winger is also a former first-round pick who hasn’t managed to land a full-time NHL role over multiple seasons, going 21st overall to the Hurricanes back in 2016. He has slightly more NHL experience and production than Foudy, at 41 points in 181 career games. Now 27, he’s peaked as a top-six AHL producer with legitimate NHL call-up utility but doesn’t have much more room for growth.
