The preseason begun on Saturday with seven games, two of which were split-squad games between the Canadiens and Maple Leafs. In the Habs/Leafs game in Toronto, Gavin McKenna appeared in a live NHL game for the first time. McKenna was held without a point in just over 20 minutes of icetime in a 4-1 loss [...]
Connor Hellebuyck has been suspended by the Jets after not reporting to camp. Hellebuyck, who has five years remaining on his contract, has requested a trade.

The Red Wings also addressed Larkin’s trade request by saying they will deal with his situation once a new GM is hired. [...]
Fraser Minten signed a seven-year deal with a $7.2 Million cap hit yesterday, which feels like it was a bit of a surprise, but considering the recent growth in salaries it might end up looking like a smart bet by Boston. Last year the number might have been a five-year deal at $5 Million per [...]
