Around The NHL<\/p>\n
Philly Hockey Now:\u00a0After signing Dan Vladar on July 1, the expectation that he\u2019d be a tandem goalie alongside Samuel Ersson. Where does that leave the towering Ivan Fedotov? It looks like the Flyers have no interest in juggling three goalies.<\/p>\n
Fedotov was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets<\/a> early Sunday morning. He makes $3.275 million against the cap but only $775,000 in actual dollars following a signing bonus payment two months ago. Very low risk for the Jackets, who try to navigate their goaltending with a struggling Elvis Merzlikins and a young Jet Greaves.<\/p>\n Chicago Hockey Now:\u00a0When Dustin Wolf signed a long-term deal worth $7.5 million per season, many were quick to point out that Spencer Knight was the next young goalie up for a new contract next summer. The Blackhawks got Knight in the trade that sent Seth Jones to the Florida Panthers.<\/p>\n And now, Knight is locked in for three more years<\/a> after the 2025-26 season. The term is lower than Wolf\u2019s deal, and so is the AAV.<\/p>\n Pittsburgh Hockey Now:\u00a0The latest Q&A on PHN<\/a> has you covered on the team\u2019s impending sale, Kyle Dubas\u2019 next move, and, of course, Sidney Crosby. Also, will Erik Karlsson be the next notable trade in the NHL?<\/p>\n Florida Hockey Now:\u00a0Sam Bennett is the reigning Conn Smythe Trophy winner and a paid man. He\u2019s ready for the next chapter of his career<\/a> as the Panthers try to march back to the Stanley Cup Final.<\/p>\n
