I saw that dude in an AHL game once a few years ago and he looked like Gretzky. Just totally dominated everything.

Think Dermott gets a deal in Edmonton. He played the most of anyone last night (very stripped down D group but still)

Yamamoto scores again tonight, and he’s looked great AGAIN, but as good as he’s been, unless they have an injury, I’m not sure how they can give him a deal, unless it’s a 2-way deal, knowing he’s going straight to the AHL.
They already look like they’re gonna have to send Doan down and he deserves to be on the opening night roster. Carcone has a handful of preseason goals too. So last year wasn’t a fluke. He’s not going anywhere. McBain is probably the next option.
Maybe it is time to take that run at Swayman, using Barrett Hayton as that prime piece going to Boston.
They may need to move a forward anyway, and still look like they need some help on the backend. It’s a crowded forward room. The good thing is, Yamamoto has been so good, I think other teams would give him a call real quick if he doesn’t get a contract in Utah.. He’s earned himself an NHL contract.

So I think these are the only outstanding tryouts after today's final rosters
Johnson looked like he was headed towards a contract, but then no news today.
Dermott was in a similar boat, with the coach even praising him just today. SIGNED October 8
Possible they will continue to stick around on a PTO until the timing is right, and then sign.
Devils fans, help me out. I can't find any news on Welinski or Zboril - surely I must have missed something obvious???
Islanders suck at sharing any sort of news (thanks, Lou) and I had to get most of their information from scouring beat reporters and Bridgeport transactions, but I can't find any news on Kudashov. Martin was realistically never going to get a contract - just a favour from Lou, so I imagine this PTO is complete, but again, Islanders suck at reporting.
The Leafs somehow are maybe even worse at reporting. Like, this off-season has been shit. Hasn't been that way the past few years, but this year they shared very little. That said, we know enough about Clifford. He is on an AHL deal and was a very, very long shot to get a contract from the jump, but is really only floating around because he got injured. Once due diligence has been done he will be released from his PTO and report to the Marlies (though I guarantee the Leafs won't say jack about it)

| Andy Welinski | New Jersey Devils |
| Jakub Zboril | New Jersey Devils |

Ducks Assign Five Players to AHL San Diego, Release Katchouk from PTO | Anaheim Ducks
The Ducks have reduced the club's 2024 Training Camp roster to 37 players (21 forwards, 11 defensemen and five goaltenders). The Ducks assigned five players to the San Diego Gulls, Anaheim’s primary development affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL), and released one player from a...

I was missing him from my list too for a while, but he just got lost in the shuffle pretty early on
