BST Non-Free-Agent Scorecard ’20

Please remember that This Summer Is Weird and we’re posting this much “earlier” in the “league year” than normal. There is still a 2020 Playoff still to come as we type. Some free-agency issues are still to be determined. Bear with us. Thanks.
Jan. 9: No promises this will be updated further as the new season approaches.

Usual disclaimers apply: This isn’t a true depth chart; it more or less keeps guys where they finished, except for newcomers and non-AHL-eligibles. As things come into sharper focus, I may rearrange. Forward positions aren’t strict. There could (will probably) be swing on the margins and within positions.

*-Unsigned restricted free agent, pending a qualifying offer. Italics: AHL contract. Blue: added since July 1.

As of 12/11 (Timashov trade), 41 NHL contracts for 2020-21 (3 G, 13 D, 25 F) (including unsigned and pending RFAs, 43* (3 G, 13 D, 27 F)).
