The NHL free agent frenzy for the 2023 offseason is in full swing, with several notable signings and trades taking place within the first few hours. Teams are making significant moves to strengthen their rosters, fill gaps left by departures, and stay within the NHL salary cap.

Matt Duchene, recently bought out by the Nashville Predators, quickly found a new home with the Dallas Stars, signing a one-year deal worth $3 million. The Predators, on the other hand, secured the services of center Ryan O'Reilly on a four-year contract worth $18 million. Max Domi and Tyler Bertuzzi also inked deals with the Maple Leafs.

In the defensive realm, Dmitry Orlov, a sought-after defenseman, signed a two-year, $15.5 million contract with the Carolina Hurricanes. Other notable NHL signings include Martin Fehervary with the Washington Capitals and Travis Hamonic with the Ottawa Senators.

NHL trade rumors have been swirling around, with Alex DeBrincat and Connor Hellebuyck reportedly on the trading block. The Florida Panthers made a trade, sending Anthony Duclair to the San Jose Sharks for Steven Lorentz and a NHL draft pick.

The Montreal Canadiens also engaged in trade activity, sending Joel Edmundson to the Washington Capitals in exchange for draft picks. The Dallas Stars traded Colin Miller to the New Jersey Devils for a fifth-round pick.
