A major offseason shift in NHL free agency has left some teams holding onto key players despite market expectations. The Seattle Kraken has retained a restricted free agent, defying predictions of a potential trade or departure. Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Flyers show no immediate interest in pursuing pending free agents, focusing instead on their existing roster. The Vancouver Canucks have also kept a forward under contract, surprising observers who anticipated a possible move.

Shane Wright is still with the Kraken. The Flyers aren't really looking at PTOs. Is it a surprise that Jake DeBrusk is still with the Canucks?
