The St. Louis Blues acquire Mathieu Joseph

St. Louis Blues: The Ottawa Senators trade forward Mathieu Joseph and a 2025 third-round pick to the Blues for future considerations.

Shawn Simpson: “Joseph was a nice guy and good vibe guy with the Sens. But he wasn’t a leader like Paul. They’ve had to work to replace the leadership of Paul and Brown. So many mistakes by Dorion.”

The Ottawa Senators sign Shane Pinto

Ottawa Senators: The Senators sign Shane Pinto to a two-year contract worth $7.5 million – a $3.75 million cap hit.

Bruce Garrioch: “Once the #Sens moved Joseph, they told the agent let’s get a 2-year deal done. Postmedia has reported the two sides were talking about a five or six-year contract in the 5M range. Senators weren’t willing to go there. June 19 I reported the two sides were talking bridge.”

The St. Louis Blues acquire Radek Faksa

St. Louis Blues: The Dallas Stars trade forward Radek Faksa to the Blues for future consideration.

Bruce LeVine: “Radek Faksa was a quality person and always fun to talk with in the room. At age 11 he moved 90 miles away from his home because hockey was the best path to a better life. He and his family will be missed. Best of luck on your next chapter.”

NHL Rumors: Mitch Marner, Martin Necas, and Jacob Trouba

The Anaheim Ducks acquire a defenseman from the Seattle Kraken

Seattle Kraken: The Kraken trade defenseman Brian Dumoulin to the Anaheim Ducks for a 2026 fourth-round pick.

Geoff Baker: “Trading Brian Dumoulin for a draft pick helps the #SEAKraken shed $3.15M in salary for next season, allowing them to accommodate yesterday’s FA signings plus upcoming Matty Beniers and Eeli Tolvanen contracts.”
