The NHL starting day of free agency was busy, with Johnny Gaudreau, Claude Giroux, Andrew Copp, Darcy Kuemper and others changing teams.
The offseason will also be engaged with Stanley Cup winner Nazem Kadri, John Klingberg, Evan Rodrigues, Phil Kessel, and other unrestricted free agents yet to be signed, restricted free agents yet to be signed, salary arbitration cases to be resolved, and teams that need to make moves to be under the salary cap before the end of training camp.
Boston Bruins center Patrice Bergeron needs to decide if he will return for another season, and the San Jose Sharks need to hire a coach.
In the last days, it had become clear that Matthew Tkachuk's time in Calgary had ended. That became official Friday night when the talented young winger was traded to the Florida Panthers along with a conditional 2025 pick for forwarding Jonathan Huberdeau, defenseman MacKenzie Weegar, prospect Cole Schwindt and a 2025 first-round pick.
It's a pretty impressive trade all the way around.
