Former Panthers Forward Traded To New Team
Marchment, 30, was acquired by the Panthers from the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for forward Denis Malgin during the 2019-20 season. From there, he played in his first 33 games with the Panthers during following campaign, where he posted two goals, 10 points, 73 hits, and a plus-4 rating.

While Marchment's first season with the Panthers was pretty quiet, he broke out in a big way during the 2021-22 season with Florida and emerged as a key part of their forward group in the process. In 54 games with the Panthers that season, the 6-foot-5 forward recorded 18 goals, 29 assists, 47 points, and a plus-29 rating. He also tied a Panthers franchise record by recording six points in one game against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Jan. 30, 2022.
Due to the Panthers' limited cap space that following off-season, they were unable to re-sign Marchment, and he landed a four-year, $18 million contract with the Stars in free agency. Following this, he was an impactful power forward with the Stars, recording 56 goals, 131 points, 275 hits, and a plus-31 rating in 211 games over three seasons.
Due to the Stars' salary cap trouble, Marchment became expendable, and the former Panther should now be a nice pickup for the Kraken because of it.

Florida Panthers star Sam Bennett is one of the NHL's top pending unrestricted free agents with the summer here. The 29-year-old center just put together an incredible post-season for the Panthers, as he scored 15 goals and recorded 22 points in 23 games and won the Conn Smythe Trophy. Thus, if he were to hit the market on July 1, he would have a ton of suitors.

He shot 28% from deep on a career-high 2.8 treys during the 2024-25 season. Before joining Auburn in 2022, he spent two seasons with the Morehead State Eagles, winning Ohio Valley Conference Defensive Player in his final year. Advertisement Broome will join a Philadelphia 76ers team that underperformed last season following a season-ending injury to former MVP Joel Embiid. Meanwhile, superstar guard Tyrese Maxey played just 52 games, while veteran Paul George failed to appear in more than half the team's games. Former first-round pick Jared McCain was also limited to just 23 games of action. Nevertheless, Philadelphia finished the season 24-58 but will look for a bounce-back season starting next winter. In the first round of the 2025 NBA Draft, the 76ers selected guard VJ Edgecombe from the Baylor Bears.

Auburn Lands Former 5-Star Recruit Out of Transfer Portal
Auburn Lands Former 5-Star Recruit Out of Transfer Portal originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It's just year three for head coach Hugh Freeze, but the consensus among the Auburn Tigers faithful is that time is running out for the longtime bench boss. Advertisement Last season, in his second year with Auburn, Freeze and the Tigers posted a 5-7 record, marking their fourth consecutive campaign with seven losses. On Monday, Freeze and his staff made a significant move to help snap the program's unprecedented stretch of uninspiring football. According to On3, former Texas A&M Aggies safety and 2022 five-star prospect Jacoby Mathews will head to The Plains. © Petre Thomas-USA TODAY Sports Mathews' addition marks a massive splash for Auburn's 2025 outlook. The safety joined Texas A&M in 2022 under defensive coordinator DJ Durkin, tallying 25 tackles, three passes defended, and one fumble recovery. As a sophomore, the 6-foot-2 third-level defender recorded 41 tackles, four passes defended, and registered his first interception. Advertisement Mathews left A&M last year, enrolling at a Junior College before entertaining the Auburn Tigers. Durkin, Mathews' play caller from 2022 to 2023, is now working for Auburn under the same title. The former Aggies defender will join an Auburn team that will welcome nearly two dozen incoming transfers. Quarterback Jackson Arnold, offensive playmaker Eric Singleton Jr., and wide receiver Horatio Fields headline the group, with the trio expected to play a significant role in returning the SEC program to relevance. Mathews will compete with Kaleb Harris and Sylvester Smith for playing time in the secondary. Freeze and Company also added defensive backs Raion Strader and Taye Seymour through the transfer portal.
