NHL News: Remaining RFAs, Red Wings, Bruins, Senators, Capitals, Okposo, and New NHL Rules



And then there were four

Chris Johnston: There are four remaining RFAs who are still looking for deals: Jeremy Swayman (BOS), Cole Perfetti (WPG), Dawson Mercer (NJ) and Nikita Alexandrov (STL).

The Detroit Red Wings re-sign defenseman Moritz Seider

Puck Pedia: Detroit Red Wings defenseman Moritz Seider signed a seven-year contract with an $8.55 million salary cap hit.

He’ll have an $8.55 million salary each season. The deal buys three year of unrestricted free agency and he’ll have a 10-team no-trade list for the final three years of the contract.

Puck Pedia: The Red Wings now have $198,000 in projected salary cap space with 23-players under contract – 13 forwards, seven defensemen, and three goalies.

Max Bultman: “Seider’s extension will expire in 2031, same year as Larkin’s current contract. I’m sure Detroit would have preferred 8 years here, but getting Raymond and Seider off the same contract timeline is ultimately not the worst consolation either.”
