The well is almost dry. As NHL training camps approach on the horizon, just seven players from Frank Seravalli’s Top 75 unrestricted free agents remain on the market. With Patrick Kane still months away from being medically cleared to play, left winger Tomas Tatar remains the most impactful player available.

As the free agent feeding frenzy draws to a close, which top UFAs remain unsigned? Here’s a look, with Seravalli’s original rank in place.

As PTO season arrives, we’re beginning to see other UFAs ranked outside the Top 75 catching on. This week, blueliner Nathan Beaulieu signed a PTO with the Carolina Hurricanes, while big forward Alex Chiasson signed one with the Boston Bruins and grinder Austin Watson got a look with the Tampa Bay Lightning, to name just a few.
