NHL’s Youngest, Frank in Vegas, Kane’s Fire Night, and Other Blackhawks Bullets - 
This shouldn’t come as a shock, but the Blackhawks will begin the 2026-27 season with the youngest roster in the NHL (barely ahead of the Montreal Canadiens). While the tweet below includes Oliver Moore, Artyom Levshunov and Connor Bedard in their graphic, let’s not forget that the team is not only young in age but also experience in a lot of spots. But last season was valuable experience. It’s also important to keep in mind that two of the core veterans who will be a big part of where the Blackhawks go from here, Spencer Knight and Bowen Byram, are both 25 years old. They’re both still, statistically, entering the prime years of their respective careers. I’ve said it for months now, but the coming season is Year Two of Kyle Davidson’s proof of concept. Now, the experience the young talent he’s collected needs to begin taking steps forward individually and as a g

NHL Draft Classes Getting Paid: Examining Recent Contract Trends - 
The summer of 2026 will be remembered as the summer the NHL went wild spending money. When Minnesota handed Kirill Kaprizov a contract with a $17M AAV one year ago it sent shockwaves around the NHL. That cap hit was $3M more than Leon Draisaitl, who was at the top of the leaderboard. That was only a sign of things to come — in a big way. When the 2027-28 NHL season begins, Kaprizov will be the fourth-highest paid player in the NHL. Indeed, four contracts with a higher AAV than Draisaitl’s $14M were signed this summer — including Connor Bedard’s $15M deal with the Blackhawks — and we’re still waiting for Anaheim to sign Cutter Gauthier and Columbus to get something done with Adam Fantilli. What’s become increasingly interesting is not only how quickly the AAV on the top deals is

Blackhawks Defenseman Wyatt Kaiser Entering Important Contract Year - 
It’s been a wild summer of spending around the NHL, and the Blackhawks have been among the league’s biggest spenders. General manager Kyle Davidson put pen to paper on the two largest contracts by annual average value in the history of the franchise this summer, first with Bowen Byram and then with Connor Bedard. But the money getting thrown around in the league has been enormous. As of this writing, the Blackhawks are the only team in the league to sign multiple players to contracts north of $9M per this offseason. However, since the start of the summer we’ve seen 12 new contracts written with an AAV of at least $9M. That number doesn’t include new contracts for Blue Jackets center Adam Fantilli or Ducks forward Cutter Gauthier, who are both still waiting for a new deal.

Now, I know we’re all focused on things like the Buffalo Sabres replicating last year’s performance, or even exceeding it, and things like Connor Hellebuyck or Kirill Marchenko joining the club. No one is thinking much about the Draft at this point in time. That’s cool.  Still, as we discovered this off-season, one never knows how things will transpire on Draft Day.

He also identifies the Columbus Blue Jackets as a team worth monitoring if things don't go according to plan, with players like Adam Fantilli, Kirill Marchenko and other pieces potentially becoming part of the trade conversation. But the biggest team to watch could be the New York Rangers.

Tyson Foerster’s new contract looks even more like a steal now - 
When Philadelphia Flyers general manager Danny Briere finished negotiating an eight-year, $56.8 million deal with Tyson Foerster days prior to the Leo Carlsson offer sheet, many were surprised. With Jamie Drysdale and Trevor Zegras still without deals, and needing deals before salary arbitration cases began, getting Foerster locked up for eight years appeared to be a feather in Briere’s cap. The deal most likely appears it will be the last eight-year contract Briere will be signing for some time, as the next Collective Bargaining Agreement sees the eight-year contracts for players already signed with their club reduced to seven years, while the seven-year contracts other teams could sign an unrestricted free agent to is reduced to six years.
