As the second round of the NHL playoffs progresses, eight teams are shifting to offseason planning for the 2025-26 season. Notably, the St. Louis Blues, eliminated in a tough Game 7, showed promise after a midseason coaching change. General Manager Doug Armstrong may seek a second-line center to support declining player Brayden Schenn. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Wild are poised to exploit reduced dead cap space from Zach Parise and Ryan Suter buyouts, allowing GM Bill Guerin to make significant roster adjustments following key injuries this past season.
The Blues need to find a second-line center, as Brayden Schenn's game is declining, even though he had a solid season.
With the dead cap hits from Parise and Suter decreasing significantly, the Wild have the chance to make impactful roster changes this summer.
