This is not a countdown of the 10 best but rather a list of players slated to have the biggest impact.

Anaheim, CA

The Anaheim Ducks went 27-50-5 in 2023-24, finishing with the third-worst record in the league. Despite improving from 23 wins in 2022-23 to 27 victories last campaign, the Ducks lost 50 games in regulation for the first time in franchise history. The Ducks will look to turn the page and take meaningful steps forward in 2024-25. The team has a new look following an offseason branding change that it hopes will usher in a revised attitude. Players will wear the updated logo and uniforms when preseason action begins in late September.

Earlier this week, we looked at some of the best contracts in the NHL based on recent performance and how they project to age in the coming years. Today, we’ll be flipping course and looking at some of the worst contracts based on recent performance and how they could age. Let’s get right into it.

The 2024 offseason definitely looks like a busy one. Plenty of moves to talk about, and we also notice some shifts in the NHL power rankings. Check them out below. This shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone, as the Panthers remain the No. 1 ranked team in the month of August too. People might say they almost lost to the Oilers in the Stanley Cup Final, but that doesn’t mean anything. There’s no reason why the current champion shouldn’t be the top team during the offseason. Sam Reinhart will play for Florida in 2025, which was a huge signing. Dmitry Kulikov will also stay, thus making sure this defense won’t undergo big changes.

Garlic, thyme, and parsley are stirred in for flavor, followed by seasoning with salt and pepper. The dish is garnished with additional parsley and served warm, making for a savory, aromatic side. Here's what you'll need to make it:

The preliminary round continued in the 2024 Hlinka Gretzky Cup, with a couple of teams in “must-win” games after playing just one game apiece. The United States and Finland faced off as 0-1 teams in Group B. On the flip side, Czechia was trying to ride the momentum from their 2-1 victory over the United States on Aug. 5.

The rebuild rankings following the 2024 NHL Trade Deadline were tough to evaluate. There was a lot of movement and a handful of fringe teams that made it difficult to put them on the list to begin with. The Vancouver Canucks graduated from the rankings as a team that was in contention for the Stanley Cup. The Ottawa Senators made their return. The Philadelphia Flyers weren’t on the list as they looked competitive at the deadline (that was fool’s gold) and by the end of the season, it was clear they were a rebuilder.

General manager (GM) Danny Briere of the Philadelphia Flyers stated that he does not view prospect Matvei Michkov as the savior of his team’s franchise. He might be telling the truth and perhaps he plans to make a blockbuster deal someday to land the 19-year-old a superstar to play next to. But if he’s lying? That’s somewhat justified.
