    Rondbjerg inked a one-year, two-way contract with the Golden Knights on Sunday.

    Rondbjerg produced 11 goals and 15 assists in 53 regular-season appearances for AHL Henderson last campaign. He didn't earn a point in 13 NHL games with Vegas in the 2024-25 regular season. Rondbjerg will probably spend most of 2025-26 in the minors again.

  • Golden Knights' Cole Schwindt: Lands one-year deal

    Schwindt agreed to a one-year contract with Vegas on Sunday.

    Schwindt generated one goal, seven assists, 32 shots on net, 17 blocked shots and 41 hits over 42 regular-season games for the Golden Knights in 2024-25. The 24-year-old forward will be in the mix for a depth role with Vegas during training camp.

He didn't earn a point in nine NHL games with Vegas during the 2024-25 regular season while posting 10 shots on goal and 16 hits.

  • Jakub Dobes G | MON

    Canadiens' Jakub Dobes: Agrees to two-year deal

    Dobes signed a two-year, $1.93 million contract with Montreal on Sunday.

    The Canadiens signed Kaapo Kahkonen on Tuesday to a one-year, $1.15 million contract, but Dobes likely still has the inside track to be the team's No. 2 goaltender going into the 2025-26 campaign. The 24-year-old Dobes impressed in his rookie year, posting a 7-4-3 record with one shutout, a 2.74 GAA and a .909 save percentage across 16 regular-season appearances with Montreal in 2024-25.

  • Ducks' Tomas Suchanek: Gets time at development camp

    Suchanek (knee) was on the ice for the Ducks' development camp and is expected to be ready for the 2025-26 season, Derek Lee of The Hockey News reports Saturday.

    Suchanek sustained a torn ACL and was ruled out for 6-8 months just before camp last season. The 22-year-old resumed skating in April and participated in development camp this past week. He should begin 2025-26 with AHL San Diego. If he can get up to speed quickly, he could be an option to make his NHL debut this year if one of Lukas Dostal or Petr Mrazek is unavailable for any reason.

  • Capitals' Hendrix Lapierre: Signs one-year deal

    Lapierre signed a one-year, $850,000 contract with the Capitals on Saturday, per PuckPedia.

    Lapierre was a restricted free agent following the conclusion of his entry-level deal. He's yet to fully establish himself at the NHL level, logging 31 points in 84 regular-season games over the last four years. He'll be in contention for a bottom-six role in training camp.

    Kraken's Tye Kartye: Inks two-year contract

    Kartye signed a two-year, $2.5 million contract with Seattle on Saturday.

    Kartye accounted for six goals, 13 points, 56 shots on net and 175 hits across 63 regular-season games in 2024-25. He will be in the mix for a bottom-six role with the Kraken during training camp.

  • Blue Jackets' Dmitri Voronkov: Agrees to two-year contract

    Voronkov signed a two-year, $8.35 million contract with the Blue Jackets on Saturday.

    Voronkov was a restricted free agent this summer after completing his entry-level contract. He had 23 goals, 47 points, 55 PIM and 71 hits across 73 appearances with the Blue Jackets in 2024-25. Going into his third NHL season, he has a chance to reach new offensive highs while playing primarily on the second line.

  • Sonny Milano LW | WAS

    Capitals' Sonny Milano: Likely to be ready at training camp

    Milano (upper body) is feeling good and is expected to be ready for training camp in September, Sammi Silber of The Hockey News reports Saturday.

    Milano suffered the injury in early November and missed the remainder of the season. The 29-year-old played in only three regular-season games and was unable to hit the scoresheet. Milano suffered a "significant setback" in early March, but he seems to have recovered and is expected to challenge for a role as a bottom-six forward in training camp.
