Is there a proposal sheet threat for Detroit Red Wings defenseman Simon Edvinsson?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Red Wings Prospects<\/strong><\/a>: (video clip of Jeff Marek on The Sheet with Jeff Marek) The offer sheet threat on Simon Edvinsson<\/a> is real.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do think the specter of a proposal sheet for c, by the best way, is sort of real. I might imagine that between Adam Fantilli<\/a>\u00a0and Connor Bedard<\/a>, the possibility of a proposal sheet rests mainly with the player in Columbus, not a lot in Chicago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Jamie Drysdale\u2019s price went up<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Brandon J. Sommermann<\/strong><\/a>: On Philadelphia Flyers RFA defenseman Jamie Drysdale<\/a>: \u201cseems like some progress has been made but recent deals within the defense market has made price go up. Still either side expect multi-year deal for Drysdale to get done before arbitration. But AAV could get to mid-$6M range now.\u201d<\/p>\n

NHL Rumors: Montreal Canadiens Make a Move When It\u2019s Least Expected?<\/a><\/p>\n

The remainder of the Philadelphia Flyers\u2019 offseason could possibly be quiet<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Bill Meltzer<\/strong><\/a>: The rest of the Philadelphia Flyers offseason could possibly be quiet, unless a trade starts to develop under the radar. They likely won\u2019t immediately be targeting one other potential first-line center.<\/p>\n

\u201c1) Matvei Michkov<\/a> is an RFA next summer. An extension might be needed.<\/p>\n

2) As with Beckett Sennecke<\/a> in Anaheim, Porter Martone<\/a> is eligible for a proactive extension next summer, taking effect for 2028-29.<\/p>\n

3) The general predominant focus likely shifts back to young players developing more.<\/p>\n

4) I do think the Flyers could seek a stopgap PP defenseman for third pair at 5-on-5 and PP duty. The choice is hoping someone like Jiricek is prepared and might handle it. (I\u2019m not very comfortable with that).<\/p>\n
