    • Dealt to Chicago
      Mikheyev, along with the negotiating rights to Sam Lafferty and a second-round pick in 2027, were traded from the Canucks to the Blackhawks on Wednesday in exchange for a 2027 fourth-round pick, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Mikheyev's a useful player, but his $4.75 million cap hit had become burdensome for the Canucks. This deal gives them cap flexibility heading into the draft and free agency, while the Blackhawks get a middle-six forward with speed and defensive skills to bolster their depth. Mikheyev had 31 points in 78 contests in 2023-24 after being limited to 28 points in 46 games due to a knee injury the year prior. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:22 pm
       
    • Sticking with Ottawa
      Highmore signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Senators on Wednesday, per PuckPedia.

      Advice: Highmore picked up two assists in seven NHL games last year, his first with the Senators. He added 31 points over 43 games with AHL Belleville. Highmore will have a chance to compete for a bottom-six role in training camp. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 5:31 pm
       
    • Staying with Vancouver
      Blueger signed a two-year, $3.6 million contract with the Canucks on Wednesday.

      Advice: Blueger was set to be a free agent Monday, but instead he'll return to the Canucks on a new deal. The 29-year-old matched his career high with 28 points in 68 contests in 2023-24, playing primarily in a third-line role. Given Vancouver's ample center depth, that's likely where Blueger will slot for 2024-25, pending any other additions up front. He'll also feature prominently on the team's penalty kill.

    • Inks three-year deal
      O'Brien signed a three-year contract with Utah HC on Wednesday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

      Advice: O'Brien had five goals, 14 points, 153 PIM and 228 hits in 75 contests with the Coyotes in 2023-24. The 29-year-old is likely to serve primarily on the fourth line for the upcoming season. He was eligible to become an unrestricted free agent Monday after completing his two-year, $1.55 million contract. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:05 am
       
    • Signs one-year deal
      Back signed a one-year, two-way contract with Dallas on Tuesday.

      Advice: Back collected seven goals and 36 points in 59 regular-season contests for AHL Texas in 2023-24. The 24-year-old forward doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Back will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 1:43 pm
       
    • Snags two-way deal
      Bongiovanni agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Ottawa on Tuesday.

      Advice: Bongiovanni has yet to make his NHL debut after originally signing with Winnipeg coming out of Quinnipiac University. In the minors this season, the 24-year-old center notched 16 goals and nine assists in 48 combined games for AHL Manitoba and AHL Belleville. At this point, the Michigan native looks like a long shot to become a full-time NHL player, though his new two-way deal will allow him to be on the list of potential call-ups during the 2024-25 campaign.
