Pat Verbeek starting to lock up the Ducks rebuild cohort. Jackson LaCombe with the richest deal in Ducks history.

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · 22d

Bill Zito keeping the band together in Florida. 8 x 5 for Nikko Mikkola.

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · 24d

Take Luke Hughes off the unsigned RFA list. He's the new foundation to the Devils cap cliff.

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · 24d

The Wild are finally out of cap purgatory from the Suter/Parise buyouts. I guess we know where the extra cap space is going now.

Kaprizov secures the bag.

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · 27d

The Blues extend Cam Fowler for 3 years.

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · 27d

The Ducks sign Mason McTavish to a 6 year deal. Should be the leading edge of their contention cohort if the current rebuild is going to bear fruit.

Flames cap cliff after the Zary deal

Greg Amundsen @puckluck83.bsky.social · Aug 28

Did a full refresh on rosters as the offseason draws to an end. Updated team plots, standings projected and newly added player 5v5 projected G/A/P leaders are all accessible from the 25/26 season main page:

You nailed this one. The Flames need out of the mushy middle, but they’re trying to walk the line between remaining competitive (likely owner driven) and rebuilding. They really need to pick a lane.

Catching up on recent signings. Frank Nazar, Marco Rossi and Ryker Evans the most notable since last update

Ever wonder how the Oilers' acquisition of Chris Pronger in 2006 helped set the table for the Kings to acquire Darcy Keumper in 2024?

The answer is in the trade web.

I updated the Jeff Petry Trade Tree. Also consolidated it into 10 branches. This thing has taken on a life of it's own - more of a mangrove forest than a tree. It spans the entire salary cap era, connecting somewhere in the neighborhood of 300 trades.
