    • The New Jersey Devils signed D Jeremy Groleau to a three-year Entry Level Contract (ELC). Groleau spent the last three seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) with the Chicoutimi Sagueneens. In those three seasons, Groleau would play 164 games and register eight goals and 23 assists. He also added one goal and one assist in 29 career playoff games. Groleau was a participant, under a Amateur Tryout agreement, in the Devils Prospect Challenge over the summer in Buffalo, New York.

     

    • Hockey in Seattle may be one step closer to reality. The Seattle Key Council approved lease agreements which will allow a demolition of KeyArena in downtown Seattle. This demolition will make way for a new facility that could host a future NHL expansion franchise. If there is to be a new NHL franchise, the earliest that could come is December at the NHL Board of Governors meetings. If Seattle is granted an expansion franchise, the earliest that team would begin play is in the 2020-2021 or 2021-2022 campaign, with an expansion fee of $650 million. The Vegas Golden Knights expansion fee was set at $500 million.
