Recent Stanley Cup champions Alex Killorn, J.T. Compher and Patrick Kane are among the top players to watch when NHL free agency begins Saturday. The crop of available forwards also includes longtime Chicago captain Jonathan Toews. Veterans Frederik Andersen and Tristan Jarry headline an unusually intriguing class of free agent goaltenders. 2018 Cup champion Dmitry Orlov is the best defenseman available after an impressive showing with Boston following the trade deadline.
