Bob McKenzie via twitter: Each team will play: 4 games vs. two Divisional opponents (8); 5 games vs. two divisional opponents (10); 3 games vs 10 Conference rivals (30).

Daniel Tolensky via twitter: Hypothetically, if the Predators traded Shea Weber after 6 years and he retired with 1 year left, the Predators would get a $32.9 million salary cap hit for 2025-26.
Bruce Garrioch via twitter: NHL teams are not allowed to use player images on their sites until the CBA gets ratified. Could face a fine a they do.
