Kings Rumors: 3 Free-Agent Destination for Viktor Arvidsson


Viktor Arvidsson spent most of this season sidelined due to injury. However, when healthy, he was quite impactful, and he should get a lot of interest around the NHL this offseason because of it. Let's go over three teams who could look to sign him if he hits the market now. 

Calgary Flames: The Calgary Flames are expected to make some additions to their roster this offseason, as they are not in a full-on rebuild. There is no question that they could use another sniper in their top six, so a player like Arvidsson could grab their attention. 

Chicago Blackhawks: The Chicago Blackhawks need to start adding some weapons for Connor Bedard to work with. Given the fact that Arvidsson has five seasons with at least 20 goals and two with at least 30, there's no question that he would be a great player for Chicago to add for Bedard. 

Montreal Canadiens: The Montreal Canadiens are expected to add to their forward group this summer. They want to be better in 2023-24, and a player like Arvidsson could make sense for them because of it. He would provide a nice jolt to their top six and power play if signed.
