<p>All the players are currently restricted free agents with their respective clubs, and have opted to use their rights for salary arbitration to attempt to get a deal to their liking. The dates for their arbitration hearings will be announced at a later date, as teams still have a second and final window for teams to elect for salary arbitration, which closes on Saturday at 5 p.m. EST. Once they have their hearing schedule, the player and team will then meet before a neutral arbitrator unless they come to an agreement beforehand.</p>



<p>Players who elect for salary arbitration are not eligible for offer sheets from other teams.</p><div class="injected-ad injected-video" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="0" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="137"></div>

<p>Necas, 25, is an RFA after the expiration of his two-year contract with a $3 million cap hit, and has a qualifying offer of $3.5 million. He’s coming off a season that was a slight step back from his 71-point season in 2022-23, where he had 24 goals and 29 assists for 53 points in 77 games with the Canes, along with 4 goals and 5 assists for 9 points in 11 playoff games. He has also been the subject of trade rumours as it appears that the Hurricanes don’t plan on having him play next season with the team, but may want to re-sign him to make him a more attractive asset.</p><div class="injected-ad" data-nn-ad-tech-injection-count="1" data-nn-ad-tech-max-gap="130" data-nn-ad-tech-current-gap="187"></div>



<p>Luukkonen, 25, is an RFA after the expiration of his two-year deal with an $837,500 cap hit, and has a qualifying offer of $971,250. He’s coming off a career year where he cemented himself as the starting goalie with the Sabres with a 27-22-4 record, .910% save percentage, 5 shutouts in 54 games, as well as 22.46 goals saved above expected that was the sixth-best in the league.</p>



<p>Lindgren, 26, is an RFA after the expiration of his three-year contract with a $3 million cap hit, and has a qualifying offer of $3.6 million. Production-wise, his 2023-24 season was on par with how he’s performed throughout his career, with 3 goals and 14 assists for 17 points in 76 games, as well as 3 assists in 16 playoff games.</p>
