Description
I thought this would be a fun project with CF community involvement. Neither thelineup nor numbered list necessarily represent a depth chart, just the overall top UFAs. So please, share your thoughts about where these top UFAs will land this offseason and I will continue to update this description. I will make estimated guests on some of these, looking at teams that some of these players I think fit best with. I will include my top pick as well 2 other runner-up/dark horse candidate teams per player. Please feel free to include players that are not in the lineup, such as Dustin Byfuglien, Carl Söderberg, etc.

As a quick note on the UFA list, as is becoming a trend in the UFA market, the talent dips quite heavily after the first dozen, especially at the center position. Anyway let's get started.

(1) Alex Pietroangelo: resigns with St. Louis Blues - other candidates: Colorado, Winnipeg

(2) Taylor Hall: signs with Calgary Flames - other candidates: Montreal, Columbus

(3) Torey Krug: resigns with Boston Bruins - other candidates: Vegas, Chicago

(4) Mike Hoffman: signs with Dallas Stars - other candidates: Edmonton, Nashville

(5) Chris Tanev: signs with Toronto Maple Leafs - other candidates: Colorado, Winnipeg

(6) Evgeni Dadonov - resigns with Florida Panthers - other candidates: Arizona, Washington

(7) Tyson Barrie: signs with Vegas Golden Knights - other candidates: Dallas, New Jersey

(8) Braden Holtby: signs with New Jersey Devils - other candidates: Washington, Vancouver

(9) Jacob Markstrom: resigns with Vancouver Canucks - other candidates: New Jersey, Carolina

(10) Tyler Toffoli: signs with Edmonton Oilers - other candidates: Vancouver, Carolina

(11) Carl Soderberg: signs with Edmonton Oilers - other candidates: San Jose, Florida

Tanev should be resign with Vancouver IMO
Barrie to VGK doubt they have the capspace for that + they already have Theodore Schmidt Martinez McNabb
Holtby probably CGY CAR
Toffoli should be Vancouver Edmonton Carolina

Toffoli and Hoffman seem unlikely for oilers hard to see how oilers can hand any term out with Nuge yam Larsson needing extensions few others but those notable ones leaves me thinking free agency ain’t a thing for this team

If VAN can't ship out some bad contracts then I only see them signing one of Markstrom, Tanev or Toffoli. They don't have the cap space for even two of them.

If they trade a 2020 1st + Eriksson they'll have the cap space to sign 2 of them. Trade Stetcher + Benn and you'll be good I think
