Around the NHL 2025-26 Season

[Rasmus_]

After taking a year off from watching hockey, I've been enjoying just watching in general.  The St Louis v Calgary game has been fun.  I love the Flames play style for sure.

Just watched Caps beat the Bolts in OT.  It was intense playoff like hockey already.  Man, the Caps are a heavy team.

Don't see it in the thread...

Lane Hutson signed an extension 8x$8.850 (signing bonuses bulked up in the first three years). It will kick in for his age 22 season. Dobson signed with MTL for $9.5M in his age 25 season.

Dobson had a fantastic age 24 season with 70 points. But thus far, that is his outlier season by 19 points. (51, 49, 39).

Hutson's rookie season was 66 points. Why is Hutson taking so little cash with the cap rising? Does he think his rookie season will be his peak?

It comes down to UFA years purchased.
