The 2025 NHL draft included 224 prospects finding new homes, and the weekend included trades for Noah Dobson, Charlie Coyle and John Gibson. On Monday, a slew of re-signings, and the trade of Mitch Marner, took several big names off the free agent big board.

The NHL's free agency period has begun and here's where every major name has signed so far after the first day.

The NHL Players' Association announced that 11 players have filed for salary arbitration. Hearings will be held from July 20 to Aug. 4, though both sides usually reach an agreement beforehand.

NHL free agency doesn't open until noon on Tuesday, July 1, but general managers decided to get a lot of their work done early. According to reports, Mitch Marner is heading to the Vegas Golden Knights in a trade and will get an eight-year, $96 million contract. Nicolas Roy will go to the Toronto Maple Leafs in the trade.

Mitch Marner was the biggest name in 2025, and he was wrapped up before free agency began with the Maple Leafs sending Marner to the Golden Knights in a sign-and-trade. Here’s a list of every signing in free agency thus far.
