    Vazquez reached base four times Friday, his first three-hit game since April. The veteran catcher now has three of his five home runs this season in the month of July. Vazquez is still splitting work with Ryan Jeffers, but he's gotten the upper hand recently as he's started 10 of the last 18 Twins games. The 33-year-old is hitting .280/.321/.507 with four homers over his last 75 at-bats and could be a name to watch down the stretch.

    1d ago

    Bordeleau signed a one-year, two-way contract with the Sharks on Thursday, per PuckPedia.

    Bordeleau's contract matches his qualifying offer, so he'll come with a $874,125 cap hit if he plays in the NHL. The 22-year-old had six goals and 11 points in 27 contests with the Sharks in 2023-24. He also provided 11 goals and 25 points across 35 outings with AHL San Jose.

  • Oliver Wahlstrom NYI RW
    Islanders' Oliver Wahlstrom: Signs one-year contract
    1d ago

    Wahlstrom penned a one-year contract with the Islanders on Thursday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.

    Wahlstrom and the Islanders avoided arbitration, agreeing to the one-year deal. Wahlstrom has been a huge disappointment since he was drafted 11th overall in 2018. He managed to score just a pair of goals and six points in 32 regular-season games in 2023-24, as he was a healthy scratch in 24 consecutive games, before seeing action in the regular-season finale versus Pittsburgh. Wahlstrom is expected to see bottom-six minutes in 2024-25, which will hamper his fantasy value.

Konecny had 33 goals and 68 points in 76 regular-season appearances last season -- both career highs. The 27-year-old will see first-line time, as well as first-unit power-play action in 2024-25, and could hit the 35-goal and 75-point mark, if he manages to remain healthy.
