    • Not expected to receive QO
      Bean (hand) is not expected to get a qualifying offer from Columbus on Sunday, according to PuckPedia.

      Advice: As a result, Bean will be eligible to test the open market Monday as an unrestricted free agent. The 26-year-old rearguard contributed four goals, nine points, 76 shots on net and 110 blocked shots in 72 games during the 2023-24 campaign. He sat out the final six games of the regular season after suffering a broken hand against the Islanders on April 4. However, he could be healthy before training camps open in the fall, so that shouldn't impact his ability to find a new deal elsewhere. Rotowire.com Today, 12:28 pm
       
    • Set to become free agent
      Bryson will not receive a qualifying offer from the Sabres and will become an unrestricted free agent Monday, per PuckPedia.

      Advice: Bryson had eight points in 36 games last season. He also added three assists with AHL Rochester. The 26-year-old blueliner has just 36 points in 206 career NHL contests. Bryson could land a cheap deal as a depth defenseman this offseason but may need to settle for a two-way contract. Rotowire.com Today, 12:23 pm
       
    • Signs one-year contract
      Woo signed a one-year, two-way contract with Vancouver on Sunday.

      Advice: Woo accumulated seven goals, 31 points and 93 PIM in 62 regular-season contests for AHL Abbotsford in 2023-24. The 23-year-old defender doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Woo will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors. Rotowire.com Today, 11:59 am
       
    • Buyout incoming
      According to CapFriendly, Boqvist (upper body) was placed on unconditional waivers by Columbus on Sunday for the purpose of a contract buyout.

      Advice: Boqvist had one more season remaining on his three-year, $7.8 million contract. He recorded one goal and 10 points in 35 appearances during the 2023-24 campaign after providing five markers and 24 points across 46 outings in 2022-23. Boqvist sat out the final 16 games this past campaign due to injury, but his placement on unconditional waivers means he has a clean bill of health ahead of the upcoming season.

    • Goes on unconditional waivers
      Winnipeg put Schmidt on unconditional waivers Sunday for the purpose of buying out the remainder of his contract, Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Schmidt had one more season left on his six-year, $35.7 million contract. The 32-year-old blueliner will be eligible for unrestricted free agency Monday. Schmidt notched two goals, 14 points, 75 shots on net, 76 blocked shots and 66 hits in 63 regular-season contests in 2023-24. Rotowire.com Today, 9:19 am
       
    • Inks one-year deal
      Skinner signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Blues on Sunday.

      Advice: Skinner chipped in three goals, 10 points and 94 PIM in 50 regular-season outings for AHL Springfield in 2023-24. The 23-year-old defender doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Skinner will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors. Rotowire.com Today, 8:47 am
       
    • Not expected to get QO
      According to Bruce Garrioch of Postmedia, Brannstrom won't receive a qualifying offer from Ottawa before Sunday's deadline, making him an unrestricted free agent.

      Advice: Brannstrom accounted for three goals, 20 points, 77 shots on net and 111 blocked shots in 76 outings during the 2023-24 campaign. The 24-year-old blueliner will be free to sign elsewhere Monday when the market opens. Rotowire.com Today, 8:33 am
       
    • Re-ups with two-year deal
      Valimaki signed a two-year contract with Utah on Saturday.

      Advice: Per PuckPedia, the deal carries a $2 million cap hit. Valimaki took a step back on offense last season with 17 points over 68 contests, a year removed from a 34-point campaign. Part of the decrease can be explained by a reduced power-play role. Valimaki also improved from minus-10 in 2022-23 to plus-12 in 2023-24, showing improved defense. The 25-year-old is likely to fill a bottom-four role for Utah. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 3:07 pm
       
    • Negotiating rights dealt
      Tanev's (ankle) negotiating rights were acquired by the Maple Leafs from the Stars on Saturday in exchange for Max Ellis and a 2026 seventh-round pick.

      Advice: Tanev is set to become an unrestricted free agent Monday, but this will give Toronto an exclusive window to negotiate a contract with him before that date. The 34-year-old defenseman is coming off a four-year, $18 million contract. He had two goals, 19 points, a plus-22 rating, 24 PIM, 45 hits and 207 blocked shots in 75 regular-season outings between Calgary and Dallas while averaging 19:41 of ice time in 2023-24. He was also leaned on heavily during the Stars' 2024 playoff run, averaging 22:17 while recording two assists, a plus-7 rating, six PIM, 30 hits and 73 blocks across 19 contests. The blueliner is recovering from a tendon injury, but he didn't miss any time during the postseason and will likely be fine for the start of the 2024-25 campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 12:55 pm
