The top NHL free agents still available

The NHL free agency frenzy has given way to the serene waters of Canadian lake cottages, where many team executives are clearing their minds as training camps creep closer.

The unrestricted free agent pool is essentially a shallow creek with very few impactful free agents. But PuckPedia calculates that all but seven NHL teams have at least $1 million to spend on their rosters, while 11 teams -- ranging from the rebuilding Chicago Blackhawks to the contending Carolina Hurricanes to whatever the Pittsburgh Penguins are -- have north of $10 million of cap space.
