With a deadline of 5:00pm ET today, the NHLPA has announced the list of 22 restricted free agents who have filed for salary arbitration. 

In alphabetical order, by player's last name, the list is as follows:

  • Morgan Barron (Winnipeg Jets)
  • Will Borgen (Seattle Kraken)
  • Noah Cates (Philadelphia Flyers)
  • Ross Colton (Colorado Avalanche)
  • Brandon Duhaime (Minnesota Wild)
  • Vince Dunn (Seattle Kraken)
  • Cale Fleury (Seattle Kraken
  • Trent Frederic (Boston Bruins)

The Boston Bruins, Minnesota Wild and Seattle Kraken lead the way with three players each on the list. 

Clubs still have until July 6 at 5 p.m. ET to elect for salary arbitration with players, if they so choose. 

As always, both the player and the team will present a salary figure for the upcoming season to a neutral third party—the arbitrator. The two sides will argue their case, and the arbitrator will make a decision on one or the other's figure. 

The two sides can still agree to sign a new deal on their own right up until the scheduled hearing time; Salary arbitration hearings will be held from July 20 to Aug. 4.
