NHL Trade Talk, News, & National Hockey Now

The Athletic ($): Well, that certainly didn’t take long. Chris Johnston of The Athletic reports that goaltender Carter Hart is expected to sign a multi-year contract by Oct. 1st after being reinstated just two days ago. Further, neither Philly nor Edmonton are expected to be the team Hart lands with.

Pittsburgh Hockey Now: Flower’s back! Marc-Andre Fleury and the Pittsburgh Penguins came to an agreement on a PTO contract Friday morning. The semi-retired goaltender is expected to get a bit of work in net during the preseason.

Philly Hockey Now: The Philadelphia Flyers have not made the playoffs in five years. In fact, if they miss the postseason for the sixth consecutive season, they will set a new franchise record —and not the good kind. Will James say’s their patient approach is running out of time.

Sportsnet: When the Devils get to the 2026 NHL Trade Deadline, they should certainly be buyers, barring a setback. If so, here are four teams that could, and should, be sellers.
