Blackhawks sign G Spencer Knight to 3-year, $17.5M extension - ESPN

Blackhawks sign G Spencer Knight to 3-year, $17.5M extension - ESPN

Spencer Knight signs a three-year, $17.5 million extension with the Chicago Blackhawks, locking in the 24-year-old as the team’s goalie of the future after a March trade that sent Seth Jones to Florida. Knight projects as the core of Chicago’s rebuild, with Arvid Söderblom in the wings and Petr Mrazek departed. Knight went 5-8-2 in 15 appearances for Chicago post-trade, carrying a career 49-33-9 record with five shutouts as the Blackhawks chart a path back toward respectability.

With Knight locked in long-term, how should fantasy managers price him in standard leagues this season given the Blackhawks' defensive play and Söderblom's role?Which players on Chicago should fantasy managers target to complement Knight’s development and maximize overall team value?What risk factors should fantasy owners monitor as Chicago builds around Knight?Which late-season indicators would indicate Knight is ready to be a true No. 1 in fantasy leagues?

Blackhawks solidify goaltending future, sign Spencer Knight to extension - NBC Sports

Blackhawks solidify goaltending future, sign Spencer Knight to extension - NBC Sports

Spencer Knight signed a three-year, $17.5 million extension with the Chicago Blackhawks, locking in a potential long-term starter as Chicago rebuilds. The 24-year-old arrived in March in a swap that sent Seth Jones to Florida for Knight and a first-round pick, signaling Knight as the crease anchor while Arvid Söderblom adds depth and Petr Mrazek departs. Knight’s size, athleticism and calm presence give Chicago a clear path to a stabilized goalie core over the next several seasons.

Given Knight's four-year extension, how should fantasy managers price his value in redraft and dynasty formats for 2025-26 and beyond?How does Petr Mrazek's departure affect Knight's workload and the structure of Chicago's crease in 2024-25?What impact will Blashill's first season have on Knight's development and fantasy upside?Does Knight's Florida background inform his readiness to lead Chicago's crease?

Kirill Kaprizov Contract Talks Ongoing. Is he Looking for 20% of the Cap? - NHL Rumors

Kirill Kaprizov Contract Talks Ongoing. Is he Looking for 20% of the Cap? - NHL Rumors

Kirill Kaprizov reportedly rejected an eight-year, $16 million cap-hit offer, aiming for about $18–$19 million per year (roughly 20% of the cap) with a no-movement clause. The Wild insist talks are ongoing and won’t publicly air trade interests. The cap trajectory could rise toward $170 million in coming years, potentially normalizing long-term deals. Potential suitors include the New York Rangers, Carolina Hurricanes, Tampa Bay Lightning, and Chicago Blackhawks.

If Kaprizov's demand keeps him off the ice this season, what is the likely impact on his fantasy value?Which Wild players should be targeted in drafts if Kaprizov returns to form soon?How should you adjust strategy if the cap continues to rise?What market signals should fantasy managers monitor as Kaprizov negotiates?

Perry out 6-8 weeks for Kings after knee surgery | Pro Hockey News

Corey Perry will miss the start of the season for the Los Angeles Kings after knee surgery, sidelining him for 6-8 weeks and likely leaving him out through the opening month. Perry signed a one-year deal on July 1 after a 30-point season with the Edmonton Oilers and a playoff resume that includes five Cup Final appearances. The Kings open the season on Oct. 7 against the Colorado Avalanche, placing immediate pressure on LAK’s forward depth and shaping early fantasy projections as Perry works back to form.

Given Perry's injury timeline, who should fantasy managers target to fill the wing depth on LAK during his absence?How should Perry's absence influence LAK's early-season power play strategy from a fantasy standpoint?What is the broader fantasy takeaway from Perry's Cup Final trajectory for players on lesser-known franchises like Edmonton or Chicago?Which metrics most indicate a healthy return for Perry in fantasy terms after his knee surgery?
