The Kraken have re-signed Morgan Geekie to a one-year, $1.4 million contract.
The Flames have re-signed Nikita Zadorov to a two-year, $7.5 million contract.
Zadorov is a huge (6-6, 235), physical defenseman, who had 22 points (4G / 18A) in 74 games with the Flames a season ago. The 27-year-old led Flames' defensemen in hits (181) and could take on a larger penalty killing role in 2022-23 with Erik Gudbranson now in Columbus.
The Bruins have acquired Pavel Zacha from the Devils for Erik Haula.
Zacha is a pending RFA who is coming off of a three-year deal worth $2.25M AAV. The 2015 No.6 overall pick has never fully unlocked the offensive potential he flashed as a Sarnia Sting (OHL). The 25-year-old is coming off of a 15-goal, 21-assist (36 points) season in 2021-22.
The Stars have signed Riley Tufte to a one-year, two-way contract extension.
Tufte was the No.25 overall pick in 2016 and made his NHL debut during the 2022 season, scoring one goal in 10 games. During his time in the AHL, he registered 10 goals and 10 assists (20 points) in 54 games. Tufte should be in the mixd for a bottom-6 role in Dallas to start the 2022-23 season.
The Stars have signed Matej Blumel to a two-year, entry-level contract.
The Blue Jackets have signed Joonas Korpisalo to a one-year contract extension.
The Bruins have signed Johnny Beecher to a three-year, entry-level contract.
Arvidsson (undisclosed) will miss the rest of the Kings' first-round series.
Arvidsson has missed the first five games of the series and will miss at least the next two games (if the Oilers win on Thursday). It's unclear how long Arvidsson will be out if the Kings advance beyond round 1.
Lindholm (upper-body) will return to the Bruins lineup for Game 6.
Lindholm will play for the first time since Game 2, replacing Matt Grzelcyk (undisclosed). Lindholm will be back on the top pair with Charlie McAvoy and on PP2.
The Bruins "anticipate" Lindholm (upper-body) returning to the Bruins lineup for Game 6.

McAvoy has cleared COVID-19 protocol and will play in Game 5.
Lindholm (upper-body) did not travel to Carolina for Game 5.

Goalie Start
Swayman will start Game 3 vs. the Huricanes.
Lindholm (upper-body) will not play in Game 3 on Friday.
Lindholm left Game 2 with an upper-body injury after being levelled by Andrei Svechnikov. Head coach Bruce Cassidy said that Lindholm travelled with the team back to Boston but will not be available for Game 3. Either Mike Reilly or Josh Brown will draw into the lineup to replace Lindholm.
Arvidsson (undisclosed) will not play in Game 2.
Arvidsson will miss his third straight game with an undisclosed injury, which means Alex Iafallo will remain on the Kings' second line, which was so impressive in Game 1.
