Foote was a first-round pick of the Tampa Bay Lightning in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft but has not been able to establish himself as a full-time NHL player. The 24-year-old spent most of the 2024-25 campaign in the AHL, scoring 39 points (18G / 21A) in 53 games with Utica Comets.

Studnicka was the 53rd overall pick of the Boston Bruins in the 2017 NHL Entry Draft and has split time between the AHL and NHL throughout his career. The 26-year-old forward spent the entirety of the 2024-25 season in the AHL, scoring 45 points (16G / 19A) in 72 games with the Ontario Reign.

After five seasons in Calgary, Dan Vladar will head to Philadelphia to share a crease with Samuel Ersson after signing a two-year deal worth $3.35M AAV ($6.7M total). The 27-year-old Czech netminder appeared in a career high 30 games in 2024-25, posting a 12-11-6 record alongside his .898 SV% and 2.80 GAA.

The first big domino of the 2025 free agency has dropped after Philadelphia signed Christian Dvorak to a one-year, $5.4 million contract. The 29-year-old center will join his third NHL franchise in 10 seasons after putting up 12 goals, 33 points and 16 PIMs in 82 games with Montreal in 2024-25. He is expected to center either Philadelphia's second or third line in the upcoming season.

The 26-year-old Philp made his long-awaited NHL debut last season, scoring two points (0G / 2A) in 15 games with the Oilers. The undrafted 26-year-old spent most of the 2024-25 campaign in the AHL, tallying 35 points (19G / 16A) in 55 games with the Bakersfield Condors.

Philadelphia added yet another flashy forward on Monday after they acquired Trevor Zegras from Anaheim for Ryan Poehling, a 2025 2nd-round pick (45th overall), and a 2026 4th-round pick. The 24-year-old forward is in the final year of a three-year, $17,230,000 contract and will cost Philadelphia $5.75 million AAV in 2025-26. Zegras will be looking for a reset after averaging over 60 points in his first two full seasons in Anaheim, followed by only 18 goals and 47 points in his previous 88 games played across the last two years.

After setting a career high in goals (16), PIMs (14) and SOG (110) in 2024-25, Noah Cates has earned himself a four-year, $16 million contract extension ($4,000,000 AAV). The 26-year-old American left-winger has spent his entire four-year career with the Flyers after being drafted in the 5th round of the 2017 NHL Draft. He had 16 goals and 37 points in 78 games played in 2024-25.

Grans only appeared in six games for the Philadelphia Flyers in his rookie season in 2024-25, picking up an assist and two PIMs and has earned himself a two-year, two-way contract worth $787,000 AAV. The 23-year-old defenseman was Los Angeles's 2020 2nd round pick (35th overall) and spent the majority of 2024-25 putting up eight goals and 23 points in 66 games played with Lehigh Valley (AHL).

Foerster was the 23rd overall pick of the Flyers in the 2020 NHL Entry Draft and has 83 points (48G / 35A) in 166 career games with the team. The 23-year-old Foerster played a career-high 81 games last season and scored a career-high 43 points (25G / 18A).

When Toronto needed him the most in Game 6, Joseph Woll was perfect, stopping all 22 shots for his first-ever postseason shutout to even the Maple Leafs' second-round series at three apiece vs. Florida. The 26-year-old has had an up-and-down postseason since taking over for Anthony Stolarz (concussion) in Game 1, with his 3-3-0 record, 3.28 GAA and .895 SV% in six appearances. He will look to break Paul Maurice's game 7 winning streak (5-0-0) as he hosts the Florida Panthers for Game 7 on Sunday.

With Anthony Stolarz still out with a concussion, Joseph Woll will remain in the Maple Leafs' net for Game 6 in Florida on Friday. The 26-year-old was pulled in Game 5 after allowing five goals on 25 shots (.800 SV%) and has struggled mightily in the playoffs with an .877 SV% and 4.02 GAA. He will head to Florida for Game 6, who is looking to close out the series and reach the Eastern Conference Final for the fourth straight season.
