[Edmonton Oilers @EdmontonOilers]

THE CAPTAIN 🫡

The #Oilers have signed forward Connor McDavid to a two-year contract extension with an AAV of $12.5 million!

[Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC]

Never seen this before:

Nikko Mikkola had a game misconduct. I'm not sure if no one told him or what...but after it was called, he continued to play and assisted on Florida's 8-0 goal.

Minutes later, that one was removed from the scoreboard and it is back to 7-0.

[High Danger Hockey Podcast @HighDangerPod]

Pretty crazy bet to take on a young defender but very similar deal to Luke Hughes so it seems like they’re setting a new standard there!

[Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC]

Another big deal: the Ducks are making Jackson LaCombe the highest-paid player in franchise history. An 8x$9M AAV extension for the talented young defenceman.

Ryan Getzlaf, Paul Kariya and Corey Perry had higher AAVs, but this is the most in total dollars.

[JFresh @JFreshHockey]

Luke Hughes, signed 7x$9M by NJ, is a developing puck-moving D with skill that hasn't quite translated to on-ice results yet. He might be the fastest D in the league, carries the puck a lot, great passer. Active in the D zone but a bit turnover prone and leaky off the rush.

[NHL @NHL]

LOCKED UP 🔒

The @NJDevils have signed Luke Hughes to a seven-year deal!

[High Danger Hockey Podcast @HighDangerPod]

I can definitely see Labanc still earning a contract somewhere around the league based on how he performed on his PTO with Carolina, there’s just no room on that roster for him

[Chris Johnston @reporterchris]

The #hurricanes have released Oliver Kylington and Kevin Labanc from their PTO's.

[High Danger Hockey Podcast @HighDangerPod]

Phenomenal save, but that rush was insane! What a duo they are🔥

[B/R Open Ice @BR_OpenIce]

Charlie Lindgren makes a HUGE save on Hughes and Bratt 🔥

THE FLOWER GETS ONE LAST WIN IN PITTSBURGH 🌸

[Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC]

Going to know more in the next 24-48 hours, but Panthers are bracing for the possibility their captain, Aleksander Barkov, could be lost for the season.

Would be brutal, no one wants to see that…but, unfortunately, was a bad injury.

[High Danger Hockey Podcast @HighDangerPod]

Yikes! Not looking good for Barkov, couldn’t even put weight on that right leg. Hope it’s not too bad for him!

[BarDown @BarDown]

Video footage was released of the Barkov injury reported earlier this morning at practice.

RIP to a legend

[B/R Open Ice @BR_OpenIce]

This upcoming season will be the final one for the New Jersey Devils "Jersey Jerseys." Debuted in 2021, the alternates were worn for a total of five seasons, but the team announced they'll no longer use them after 2025-26 🖤♥️

[Greg Wyshynski @wyshynski]

Based on my conversations with players at NHL Media Tour this week, there's one unifying belief they share about the Stanley Cup Playoffs format:

They want to go back to 1-through-8 instead of the wild card.

“I feel like all the players want back to 1-to-8," said Cale Makar.

[New Jersey Devils @NJDevils]

Do you remember what's on the 21st night of September...
