I think if he is not on their playoff roster he can. In any event they probably told to look for something because he was not in their plans. Did he also finish with the AHL team?
According to the AHL website he's still on the Gulls' playoff roster and it looks like they're still playing.
I think you're right when you say that the Ducks organization must have given him permission to look for a new opportunity for next year.

This happens quite often. I recall back in 2015, Vancouver Canucks prospect Peter Andersson signed a contract with Orebro in Sweden in March, still during the AHL regular season, and he continued to play the rest of the season and throughout the playoffs as well. I found it a little odd, but sometimes I think it's more of an "agreement to terms" until their actual contract expires (in NHL/AHL cases, June 30th) to sign a new contract elsewhere.

I'd assume that the date has to do with when UFAs can talk to other clubs. Since he wouldn't be able to sign with another club until July 1, I think the idea he has to "sign" by June 25th shouldn't be taken quite so literally. The point of the deadline is to allow him to gauge interest from other NHL clubs, I would assume to see if anyone's willing to give him a shot of making their team. Even if it were a strict deadline where he has to put pen to paper by that date, the Flyers could trade him (as a pending UFA) to another club for future considerations.

UFA F Tom Kostopoulos, whom I have listed on the UFA charts on account of him being one of the Top 10 highest-scoring forwards in the AHL without an NHL deal, has signed another AHL deal, re-signing with Wilkes-Barre of the AHL for another season.

Sullivan gots to go!
according to eliteprospects.com, Ejdsell has signed with HV 71 of the SHL.
He was playing there no matter what, he's 21 and hasn't played above Allsvenskan, he isn't going to jump straight to the NHL
...The exact same Swedish article that said Ejdsell chose the Preds also said this:
"he may join a higher profile team next season — SHL club HV71, the reigning playoff champ — and spend another year playing abroad, then join the Preds later."
