Maple Leafs linked to 22-goal forward to help replace Mitch Marner
The Toronto Maple Leafs aren't done. They know that to replace Mitch Marner, they'll need to bring in layers of production from outside the organization. So a week into free agency, Toronto is seeking another forward. Advertisement NHL insider Elliotte Friedman has linked the Maple Leafs to Jack Roslovic. Roslovic is a 28-year old center. He's coming off a 22-goal season with the Carolina Hurricanes, which tied his career high. MORE: Red Wings forward announces shock NHL retirement at age 28 He might not have major upside, but he's a consistent top-nine forward who can add an overall offensive depth to Toronto's roster. Roslovic is certainly one of the few best forward options remaining in unrestricted free agency. If Toronto can't pull this signing off, it may take a trade to improve the forward group. There are possibilities out there for the Maple Leafs to acquire via trade, but it certainly makes sense to try and lock Roslovic down and then potentially supplement with a deal once they know exactly what the rest of the depth chart will look like.

Bruins linked to Connor McDavid and record-setting 7-year contract ahead of pivotal choice
Don't count out anyone when it comes to the possible Connor McDavid sweepstakes of next offseason. If the Edmonton Oilers superstar doesn't sign a new contract after his current deal is up at the end of the 2025-26 season, everyone will be interested. Advertisement The Boston Bruins would certainly be on that list. Bleacher Report sees Boston as a possibility, explaining it like this: Even though they have rapidly arrived in the NHL's mushy middle of mediocrity, the Bruins do not seem prepared to start rebuilding or tearing things down. To be more than what they were this past season and more than what their roster figures to look like this upcoming season, they'll need a game-changing No. 1 center. That has been their biggest need since Patrice Bergeron and David Krejci retired, and the likes of Casey Mittelstadt, Pavel Zacha and Elias Lindholm are not going to satisfy it. McDavid obviously would. The Bruins are in a big market and are an Original Six franchise that still has eyes on winning. That could potentially be appealing to McDavid. The Bruins are listed last on the B/R list. They're probably a bit of a long shot compared to a team like the Maple Leafs or Rangers. MORE: Red Wings forward announces shock NHL retirement at age 28 But there will likely be a number of factors at play here. McDavid will surely get a record-setting contract, potentially of the max seven-year variety (or eight years in a sign-and-trade). He'll have to make the huge choice to leave Edmonton, of course. But if he does that, anything could happen, even a joining with the Bruins. Advertisement MORE NHL NEWS:

Kraken Sign Tye Kartye To Two-Year Extension
Seattle Kraken forward Tye Kartye (12) skates with puck against the Vancouver Canucks during the third period at Rogers Arena. Mandatory Credit: Simon Fearn-Imagn Images The Seattle Kraken have signed forward Tye Kartye to a two-year, $1.25M AAV contract extension. The 24-year-old undrafted winger struggled in his sophomore season, scoring six goals and 13 points in 63 games, a step down statistically from his rookie season, where he scored 11 goals and 20 points in 77 games. Advertisement While his offensive numbers were down, his overall effect on the game significantly dropped off. He was a physical presence and a hound on the forecheck in his rookie year, but struggled to replicate it during the 2024-25 campaign. The two-year extension should serve as both a sign of faith that the Kraken believe he can re-find his level, but also as a confidence boost. If Kartye can be effective in the bottom six, the Kraken become a much harder team to beat. Under HC Lane Lambert, the Kraken are expected to be a defence-first team, and it should play right into the strengths of Kartye. Following Kartye's extension, the Kraken have Kaapo Kakko and Ryker Evans left to work out contract extensions with.
