According to Sportsnet\u2019s Elliotte Friedman on his <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sportsnet.ca\/podcasts\/32-thoughts\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">32 Thoughts podcast<\/a>, the 20-goal scorer has multiple suitors, with over five teams reportedly vying for his services, and Roslovic is currently taking his time to evaluate his options.<\/p>\n<p>The Carolina Hurricanes signed Roslovic to a one-year, $2.8 million deal for the 2024-25 season, and he delivered by tying his career-high of 22 goals\u2014more than any other remaining free agent. However, Roslovic\u2019s career has been marked by inconsistency, as evidenced by his slump in the second half of the season, where he managed just five goals.<\/p>\n<p>Friedman believes that some remaining free agents are hesitant to sign contracts that could soon be viewed as too much of a bargain, and that might be where Roslovic currently stands in the process. With that said, Elliotte Friedman suggests there are upwards of six teams interested in him, including the Toronto Maple Leafs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s the best available player remaining. And, obviously, he hasn\u2019t found anything he 100 percent likes. But there are definitely a few teams poking around there. I\u2019ve heard five or six teams. So, he needs to get to something he feels comfortable with,\u201d Friedman said.<\/p>\n<p>A two-time 20-goal scorer, Roslovic is still just 28 years old and could provide valuable third-line production in the right system. In 526 career games across nine seasons, the forward has produced 260 points across stops with the Winnipeg Jets, Columbus Blue Jackets, New York Rangers, and Hurricanes. Before the start of free agency,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prohockeyrumors.com\/2025\/06\/phrs-2025-top-50-nhl-unrestricted-free-agents.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">ProHockeyRumors<\/a> had Roslovic as the 20th-best option on the free agent market, with a projected three-year, $10.5MM contract ($3.5MM AAV). While those numbers are unlikely to be achieved this late in the process, Friedman\u2019s report indicates that a deal is likely to materialize soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Though forward Jack Roslovic remains unsigned more than a month into free agency, it\u2019s not for a lack&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":41300,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[3062,64,63,36397,575,85],"class_list":["post-41299","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-2025-free-agency","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-jack-roslovic","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41299","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=41299"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/41299\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/41300"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=41299"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=41299"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=41299"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
