Fritz will turn 26 before the contract kicks in, so I put him in the Free Agency thread instead of Prospects.

What will they do with him once Willie is sacked? Send him to their non-existent ECHL affiliate?

Did a little housekeeping in the first few posts.

Added Jonathan-Ismael Diaby to the UFA list as his contract with Nashville was terminated.

Moved the following players who have been inactive for the better part of at least the last 2 seasons to the Retired list: Chris Pronger, Cody McCormick, Joe Vitale, Andrew Ference, Marc Savard, Pascal Dupuis and Stephane Robidas.

Moved the following players to the European Signings list as they have contracts for next year, per Elite Prospects: David Wolf, Shawn Lalonde, Magnus Nygren, Kirill Petrov and Nikita Filatov. Also, assumed that Pavel Datsyuk would be playing there and moved him, as well.

I see both Rodin and Froese as RFA's, not UFA's, on CapFriendly.

I see both Rodin and Froese as RFA's, not UFA's, on CapFriendly.

Both Rodin and Froese on their profiles are listed as UFA at the end of their 2016-17 contracts.

Make sure you're looking at the right contracts, CapFriendly lists them from most recent deal to oldest, I've accidentally checked the wrong contract before, myself.

Also Zach Trotman is listed as an UFA, too, now.

This tweet from CapFriendly back in February should come in handy:

Per Elite Prospects RFA Tim Bozon, who played this past season for Springfield of the AHL while under contract to Florida, has signed with Kloten of the NLA.

 

[Teemu]

 

[Magic Mittens]

As long as he's able to play like his rookie season after his injury, that's a great signing

Per Elite Prospects UFA F Sergei Andronov, who played this past season with CSKA Moskva of the KHL while property of the St. Louis Blues, has re-signed with CSKA Moskva.

That's kind of a weird date, no?
Pretty much means he has to re-sign with Philly (or Philly has to let his rights go).
