    Jets' Rasmus Kupari: Agrees to two-year contract
    2d ago

    Kupari, who was a restricted free agent, signed a two-year, $2 million deal with the Jets on Wednesday.

    Kupari was acquired from LA on June 27 as part of the deal that sent Pierre-Luc Dubois to the Kings. Kupari had three goals, 15 points and 80 hits in 66 outings last season. The 23-year-old is likely to open the 2023-24 campaign on Winnipeg's fourth line.

    Ducks' Troy Terry: Inks seven-year deal
    2d ago

    Terry agreed Wednesday with Anaheim on a seven-year contract.

    The Ducks didn't release the financial terms of the deal, but it's reportedly worth $7 million annually, per Eric Stephens of The Athletic. Terry will be getting a huge pay raise after he recently completed a three-year, $4.35 million contract before becoming a restricted free agent this summer. Terry broke out in 2021-22 with 37 goals and 67 points in 75 contests, then followed up with 23 markers and 61 points in 70 games in 2022-23. The 25-year-old should continue to be a key offensive force for the Ducks for the duration of his new contract.

    Ducks' Isac Lundestrom: Suffers Achilles injury
    2d ago

    Lundestrom sustained an Achilles injury while training in Sweden and has undergone surgery, according to Derek Lee of The Sporting Tribune.

    Lundestrom is projected to be out for around six months, which would translate to him missing the entirety of the Ducks' schedule before the All-Star Game. He had four goals and 14 points in 61 contests with Anaheim last season. Once Lundestrom is ready to rock, he'll likely serve in a bottom-six role.

    Penguins' Drew O'Connor: Inks two-year deal
    2d ago

    O'Connor agreed to terms on a two-year. $1.85 million contract with Pittsburgh on Wednesday.

    O'Connor logged 46 games for the Pens last season in which he recorded five goals on 62 shots, six assists and 63 hits while averaging 9:49 of ice time. With his new contract in hand, O'Connor should be in contention for regular appearances in the lineup, likely in a bottom-six role, where he should be capable of reaching the 20-point threshold.

    Oilers' Ryan McLeod: Inks two-year contract
    2d ago

    McLeod agreed to a two-year, $4.2 million contract with the Oilers on Tuesday, Ryan Rishaug of TSN reports.

    McLeod and the Oilers were still on the docket for arbitration before reaching the agreement. This new deal rewards McLeod with a sizable raise, though his role is unlikely to change from that of a middle-six center. He'll likely spend most of his time on the third line, though he occasionally worked on the second line in 2022-23. McLeod had 23 points in 57 contests last season.

    Swayman posted a 24-6-4 record last season with four shutouts, a 2.27 GAA and a .920 save percentage over 37 appearances. He shared the crease with 2023 Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark, which will likely be the case again next campaign. The goaltending duo of the Bruins won the William M. Jennings Trophy after allowing a league-low 177 goals against during the 2022-23 regular season.

  • Vladimir Tarasenko NYR RW
    Senators' Vladimir Tarasenko: Signs with Ottawa
    8d ago

    Tarasenko signed a one-year, $5 million contract with the Senators on Thursday.

    Tarasenko was reportedly close to a deal with the Hurricanes earlier in July, but that never came to fruition. Instead, he circled back to another team that had some early interest and took a short-term deal with the Senators. He'll provide a veteran presence in the top six for a young team, and he'll likely also add some scoring pop. The 31-year-old winger had 18 goals and 50 points over 69 contests last year, but he's a six-time 30-goal scorer. Tarasenko should also see ample power-play time in 2023-24, and his reasonable cap hit could make his contract moveable at the trade deadline if the Senators underperform, though Tarasenko has a full no-trade clause in the deal.

    Aho has one season left on his existing five-year, $42.295 million deal, so he's now locked up through the 2031-32 campaign. The 26-year-old forward had 36 goals and 67 points in 75 outings last season. That campaign marked the fourth time in five years in which Aho had recorded at least 30 goals. He should continue to be one of Carolina's top offensive weapons through the life of this new contract.

    Dorofeyev produced seven goals and two assists over 18 contests at the NHL level last season. The bulk of his appearances came in March and April, which suggests he could have an inside edge for a roster spot on Opening Night. The 22-year-old winger is likely to be limited to a bottom-six role when in Vegas' lineup in 2023-24.

    Murray (undisclosed) is considered out indefinitely and was placed on the long-term injured reserve list by Toronto on Wednesday.

    Toronto didn't specify the reason for moving Murray to the long-term injured reserve list. He didn't play past April 2 because of a concussion, but he was the Maple Leafs' third goaltender for a playoff contest against Florida on May 7, which suggests that he was at least considered an emergency option at that time. The goaltender also missed a significant stretch of the 2022-23 campaign due to an ankle injury. If Murray isn't available going forward, then Joseph Woll is likely to serve as Ilya Samsonov's backup in 2023-24.
