Speculation: Where does Ekblad sign as a free agent?

Pretty sure the writing was on the wall when Seth Jones was acquired with the length of his contract and cost to replace Ekblad. It was the long term solution. I could see him overpaid to Anaheim in the 8-9.5 range.

Carolina. He can be Slavins partner for the next 4-5 years.

Next year, Makar is the only major RHD set to hit UFA, but I highly doubt he’ll leave the Avalanche.

Makar isn’t a UFA for another two seasons.

July 1st, 2027.

I think he’ll end up in the West. Too much $$ for the Panthers and too difficult (literally and emotionally) to play against the Panthers in the East.

Oh yes, he'd be an emotional wreck if he had to play against his former team.

What a load of tripe.
