• Andy Jassy says AI will eliminate some Amazon jobs — but create more in at least 2 areas</p>

<p>Amazon's CEO, Andy Jassy, says AI technologies will create jobs in AI and robotics.REUTERS/Brendan McDermid -</p>

<p>Amazon's CEO, Andy Jassy, says AI will transform jobs at the company.</p>

<p>The tech will create new jobs in robotics and AI, despite automating some existing roles, he said.</p>

<p>Amazon has 500 open robotics roles on LinkedIn.</p>

<p>AI isn't all doom and gloom for jobs, said Amazon's Andy Jassy.</p>

<p>In an interview with CNBC published on Monday, the Amazon CEO deemed AI "the most transformative technology in our lifetime." He said that it would change things not only for Amazon customers but also for its employees.</p>

<p>Jassy said that AI technologies would create jobs in at least two areas of the company.</p>

<p>"With every technical transformation, there will be fewer people doing some of the jobs that the technology actually starts to automate," he said. "Are there going to be other jobs? We're going to hire more people in AI and more people in robotics, and there are going to be other jobs that the technology wants you to go higher that we'll hire over time too."</p>

<p>Jassy said that AI agents, which do tasks like coding, research, analytics, and spreadsheet work, would also change the nature of every employee's job.</p>

<p>"They won't have to do as much rote work," he said. "Every single person gets to start every task at a more advanced starting spot."</p>

<p>On LinkedIn, Amazon has added at least 500 open roles worldwide with the keyword "robotics" in the job title in the past month. Roles span internships to senior applied scientist positions.</p>

<p>The Amazon robotics senior applied scientist job description includes tasks like "developing machine-learning capabilities and infrastructure for robotic perception and motion" and "building visualization tools for analyzing and debugging robot behavior."</p>

<p>Jassy's comments came in response to a question about his June 17 memo, which outlined how AI would change the company's workforce.</p>

<p>"It's hard to know exactly where this nets out over time, but in the next few years, we expect that this will reduce our total corporate workforce as we get efficiency gains from using AI extensively across the company," he wrote.</p>

<p>Some Amazon employees were not happy with Jassy's message. In internal Slack channels, some called for leadership to share in the fallout, while others saw it as a layoff warning, Business Insider reported.</p>

<p>"There is nothing more motivating on a Tuesday than reading that your job will be replaced by AI in a few years," one person wrote in Slack.</p>

<p>Amazon employs about 1.5 million workers, according to its website, and has cut almost 28,000 jobs since the start of 2022, per Layoffs.fyi.</p>

<p>From Jassy's memo and Monday's interview, it is unclear which or how many Amazon employees would be affected by AI-driven job changes.</p>

<p>Other tech CEOs have raised the alarm on AI-related job cuts, especially for white-collar and entry-level roles.</p>

<p>In April, Micha Kaufman, the CEO and founder of the freelance-job site Fiverr, wrote in an email to employees that: "It does not matter if you are a programmer, designer, project manager, data scientist, lawyer, customer support rep, salesperson, or a finance person — AI is coming for you."</p>

<p>In late May, Anthropic's CEO, Dario Amodei, suggested AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs.</p>

<p>"We, as the producers of this technology, have a duty and an obligation to be honest about what is coming," Amodei told Axios in an interview. "I don't think this is on people's radar."</p>

Senate Republicans seek support for Trump’s big bill in overnight session

<p>-

• Senate Republicans seek support for Trump's big bill in overnight session</p>

<p>LISA MASCARO, MARY CLARE JALONICK and MATT BROWN July 1, 2025 at 1:50 AM</p>

<p>1 / 4Congress Tax CutsSenate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., is followed by reporters as he walks from the chamber to his office as Republicans begin a final push to advance President Donald Trump's tax breaks and spending cuts package, at the Capitol in Washington, Monday, June 30, 2025. (AP Photo/Manuel Balce Ceneta)</p>

<p>WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate is slogging through an overnight session that has dragged into Tuesday, with Republican leaders buying time as they search for ways to secure support for President Donald Trump's big bill of tax breaks and spending cuts while fending off proposed amendments, mostly from Democrats trying to defeat the package.</p>

<p>An endgame was not immediately in sight. Senate Majority Leader John Thune of South Dakota is working for a last-minute agreement between those in his party worried the bill's reductions to Medicaid will leave millions without care and his most conservative flank, which wants even steeper cuts to hold down deficits ballooning with the tax cuts.</p>

<p>Thune declared at one point they were in the "homestretch" as he dashed through the halls at the Capitol, only to backtrack a short time later, suggesting any progress was "elusive."</p>

<p>At the same time House Speaker Mike Johnson has signaled more potential problems ahead, warning the Senate package could run into trouble when it is sent back to the House for a final round of voting, as skeptical lawmakers are being called back to Washington ahead of Trump's Fourth of July deadline.</p>

<p>"I have prevailed upon my Senate colleagues to please, please, please keep it as close to the House product as possible," said Johnson, the Louisiana Republican. House Republicans had already passed their version last month.</p>

<p>It's a pivotal moment for the Republicans, who have control of Congress and are racing to wrap up work with just days to go before Trump's holiday deadline Friday. The 940-page "One Big Beautiful Bill Act," as it's formally titled, has consumed Congress as its shared priority with the president.</p>

<p>In a midnight social media post urging them on, Trump called the bill "perhaps the greatest and most important of its kind." Vice President JD Vance summed up his own series of posts, simply imploring senators to "Pass the bill."</p>

<p>The GOP leaders have no room to spare, with narrow majorities in both chambers. Thune can lose no more than three Republican senators, and already two — Sen. Thom Tillis of North Carolina, who warns people will lose access to Medicaid health care, and Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky, who opposes raising the debt limit — have indicated opposition. Tillis abruptly announced over the weekend he would not seek reelection after Trump threatened to campaign against him.</p>

<p>Attention quickly turned to key senators, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Susan Collins of Maine, who have also raised concerns about health care cuts, but also a loose coalition of four conservative GOP senators pushing for even steeper reductions.</p>

<p>And on social media, billionaire Elon Musk was again lashing out at Republicans as "the PORKY PIG PARTY!!" for including a provision that would raise the nation's debt limit by $5 trillion, which is needed to allow continued borrowing to pay the bills.</p>

<p>Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of New York said his side was working to show "how awful this is."</p>

<p>"Republicans are in shambles because they know the bill is so unpopular," Schumer said as he walked the halls.</p>

<p>A new analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office found 11.8 million more Americans would become uninsured by 2034 if the bill became law. The CBO said the package would increase the deficit by nearly $3.3 trillion over the decade.</p>

<p>Senators to watch</p>

<p>Few Republicans appear fully satisfied as the final package emerges, in either the House or Senate.</p>

<p>Tillis said it is a betrayal of the president's promises not to kick people off health care, especially if rural hospitals close.</p>

<p>Collins had proposed bolstering the $25 billion proposed rural hospital fund to $50 billion, but her amendment failed. And Murkowski was trying to secure provisions to spare people in her state from some health care and food stamp cuts while also working to beef up federal reimbursements to Alaska's hospitals. They have not said how they would vote for the final package.</p>

<p>"Radio silence," Murkowski said when asked.</p>

<p>At the same time, conservative Senate Republicans proposing steeper health care cuts, including Rick Scott of Florida, Mike Lee of Utah, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming, filed into Thune's office for a near-midnight meeting.</p>

<p>The Senate has spent some 18 hours churning through more than two dozen amendments in what is called a vote-a-rama, a typically laborious process that went on longer than usual as negotiations happen on and off the chamber floor. The White House legislative team also was at the Capitol.</p>

<p>A few of the amendments — to strike parts of the bill that would limit Medicaid funds to rural hospitals or shift the costs of food stamp benefits to the states — were winning support from a few Republicans, though almost none were passing.</p>

<p>Sen. Mike Crapo, the GOP chairman of the Finance Committee, dismissed the dire predictions of health care cuts as Democrats trafficking in what he called the "politics of fear."</p>

<p>What's in the big bill</p>

<p>All told, the Senate bill includes $4.5 trillion in tax cuts, according to the latest CBO analysis, making permanent Trump's 2017 rates, which would expire at the end of the year if Congress fails to act, while adding the new ones he campaigned on, including no taxes on tips.</p>

<p>The Senate package would roll back billions of dollars in green energy tax credits, which Democrats warn will wipe out wind and solar investments nationwide. It would impose $1.2 trillion in cuts, largely to Medicaid and food stamps, by imposing work requirements on able-bodied people, including some parents and older Americans, making sign-up eligibility more stringent and changing federal reimbursements to states.</p>

<p>Additionally, the bill would provide a $350 billion infusion for border and national security, including for deportations, some of it paid for with new fees charged to immigrants.</p>

<p>Democrats fighting all day and night</p>

<p>Unable to stop the march toward passage, the Democrats as the minority party in Congress are using the tools at their disposal to delay and drag out the process.</p>

<p>Democrats forced a full reading of the text, which took 16 hours, and they have a stream of amendments.</p>

<p>Sen. Patty Murray of Washington, the ranking Democrat on the Appropriations Committee, raised particular concern at the start of debate late Sunday about the accounting method being used by the Republicans, which says the tax breaks from Trump's first term are now "current policy" and the cost of extending them should not be counted toward deficits.</p>

<p>She said that kind of "magic math" won't fly with Americans trying to balance their own household books.</p>

Greenland has a message for the rest of the world: Come visit

<p>-

• Greenland has a message for the rest of the world: Come visit</p>

<p>KWIYEON HA July 1, 2025 at 9:02 AM</p>

<p>1 / 5EU-Greenland-TourismTourists on a whale watching boat tour take photos at sea near Nuuk, Greenland, Tuesday, June 17, 2025. (AP Photo/Kwiyeon Ha)</p>

<p>NUUK, Greenland (AP) — Greenland has a message for the rest of the world: We're waiting for you.</p>

<p>"Come visit Greenland," said Nukartaa Andreassen, who works for a water taxi company in the capital city, Nuuk. "Learn about it, learn about us. We love to have you. We love to tell our stories and our culture."</p>

<p>The mineral-rich Arctic island is open for tourism. Whale-watching tours, excursions to the iconic puffin island and guided charters through remote settlements are just the beginning of what Greenland has to offer visitors. Locals want to show what makes the island unique beyond a recent diplomatic dustup with U.S. President Donald Trump.</p>

<p>"Our goal and mission is to present and be the ambassadors of Greenland," said Casper Frank Møller, the chief executive of Nuuk-based tour guide company Raw Arctic, "and to show what beauty you can experience while you're here."</p>

<p>The tourism industry is expected to see a boom this year following the launch of a new route between Nuuk and Newark, New Jersey. The inaugural flight June 14 was the first direct travel from the U.S. to Greenland by an American airline.</p>

<p>Traveling to Greenland</p>

<p>Before the direct flight, air passengers departing from the U.S. needed a layover in Iceland or Denmark to reach Greenland. The change benefited travelers like Doug Jenzen, an American tourist who was on the United Airlines plane from New Jersey.</p>

<p>"I came with the purpose of exploring some of the natural sites around the world's largest island, hoping to support things like ecotourism and sustainable travel while supporting the local economy," Jenzen said.</p>

<p>Cruise ships can already dock on the island but they bring less money to businesses catering to tourists because passengers sleep and usually eat on board.</p>

<p>Some 150,000 tourists visited Greenland in 2024, according to Naaja Nathanielsen, Greenland's business minister.</p>

<p>"We really want to grow the tourism sector. It's a very good fit for many in Greenland," Nathanielsen added. "Tourism is about good vibes. It's about sharing culture, sharing history. It's about storytelling. And as Inuit, that's very much part of our heritage."</p>

<p>The Trump effect</p>

<p>Greenland gained worldwide attention when Trump earlier this year announced he wanted to take control of the semiautonomous Danish territory, through a purchase or possibly by force.</p>

<p>Denmark, a NATO ally, and Greenland have said the island is not for sale and condemned reports of the U.S. gathering intelligence there.</p>

<p>Despite the diplomatic tension, Frank Møller of Raw Arctic sees an upside.</p>

<p>"It has kind of put Greenland on the world map. And it's definitely a situation that Raw Arctic has used to our advantage," he said.</p>

<p>Still, beefing up the tourism industry should happen at a pace that prioritizes the voices and comfort levels of the roughly 56,000 people on the island, he added.</p>

<p>Andreassen, of Nuuk Water Taxi, agreed.</p>

<p>"It's very important for me to tell my own story. Because I always feel like when I meet new people, I always introduce a whole Greenland," she said. "It's important for me to show our own culture, our own nature. Not by television, not by other people from other countries."</p>

<p>'Unforgettable moment'</p>

<p>In June, Pinar Saatci, a 59-year-old Turkish tourist, saw several whales breach the ocean surface during a boat tour.</p>

<p>"It's very exciting to be here, at the other part of the world, so far away from home," she said. "It's a very exciting and unforgettable moment."</p>

<p>Risskov Rejser has visited Greenland several times through her travel company for Danish travelers. But she is worried about the impact of a tourist invasion.</p>

<p>"For me, the worst thing would be if mass tourism starts and people come here, and sort of look upon the Greenland people as if they were a living museum," she said. "It has to be done in a respectful way and you have to consider what the consequences are."</p>

Asian shares are mostly higher, tracking US rally into record heights

<p>-

• Asian shares are mostly higher, tracking US rally into record heights</p>

<p>TERESA CEROJANO July 1, 2025 at 6:41 AM</p>

<p>1 / 5Japan Financial MarketsA person walks under the intense sun near an electronic stock board displaying Japan's Nikkei index at a securities firm Tuesday, July 1, 2025, in Tokyo. (AP Photo/Eugene Hoshiko)</p>

<p>MANILA, Philippines (AP) — Asian shares are mostly higher after U.S. stocks added to their records with the close of a second straight winning month.</p>

<p>U.S. futures and oil prices were lower.</p>

<p>Japan's Nikkei 225 fell 1.2% to 40,003.24 despite positive results of the central bank's quarterly Tankan survey of large manufacturers, which showed an better than expected improvement in business sentiment.</p>

<p>The Shanghai Composite index added 0.2% to 3,451.69 after China's official manufacturing purchasing managers index, or PMI, rose to a three-month high of 49.7 in June while the PMI for services and other non-manufacturing businesses also rose to a three-month high of 50.5.</p>

<p>Hong Kong's stock market was closed on Tuesday.</p>

<p>South Korea's KOSPI Composite Index surged 1.5% to 3,117.17 after the government reported that exports bounced back in June, helped by strong demand for semiconductors, ships and health products.</p>

<p>"Automobile and automotive parts exports also gained. Strong electric vehicle exports to the EU and solid used-car exports partially offset the decline of U.S. exports. However, we expect auto exports to remain soft due to tariffs and increased production in the U.S.," Min Joo Kang of ING Economics said in a report.</p>

<p>Australia's S&P/ASX 200 edged up 0.1% to 8,550.80.</p>

<p>The PSEi in Manila, Philippines, rose 0.2%.</p>

<p>On Monday, Wall Street resumed its upward climb.</p>

<p>The S&P 500 rose 0.5% to 6,204.95. It has staged a stunning recovery from its springtime sell-off of roughly 20%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 0.6% to 44,094.77, and the Nasdaq composite gained 0.5% to 20,369.73.</p>

<p>Stocks got a boost after Canada said it would rescind a planned tax on U.S. technology firms and trade talks with the United States resumed. On Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump had said he was suspending those talks to retaliate for the tax, calling it "a direct and blatant attack on our country."</p>

<p>U.S. stocks have bounced back on hopes that Trump will reach deals with other countries to lower his painful high tariffs and avert trade wars that could stifle the economy and send inflation higher.</p>

<p>Many of Trump's announced tariffs have been postponed and are due to kick back into effect on July 9.</p>

<p>The U.S. stock market recovery could raise the risk Trump will resume escalating tariffs, similar to what happened in 2018-2019, according to strategists at Deutsche Bank led by Parag Thatte and Binky Chadha.</p>

<p>On Wall Street, Oracle's 4% rise was one of the strongest forces lifting the S&P 500. CEO Safra Catz said the tech giant "is off to a strong start" in its fiscal year and that it signed multiple large cloud services agreements, including one that could contribute over $30 billion in annual revenue two fiscal years from now.</p>

<p>GMS' stock jumped 11.7% after the supplier of specialty building products said it agreed to sell itself to a Home Depot subsidiary in a deal that would pay $110.00 per share in cash. That would give it a total value of roughly $5.5 billion, including debt.</p>

<p>Less than two weeks ago, another company, QXO, said it was offering to buy GMS for $95.20 per share in cash. After the announcement of the Home Depot bid, QXO's stock rose 3.9%, and Home Depot's stock slipped 0.6%.</p>

<p>Hewlett Packard Enterprise rallied 11.1% and Juniper Networks climbed 8.4% after saying they had reached an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice that could clear the way for their merger go through, subject to court approval. HPE is trying to buy Juniper in a $14 billion deal.</p>

<p>Bank stocks were also solid after the Federal Reserve said on Friday that they are financially strong enough to survive a downturn in the economy. JPMorgan Chase climbed 1%, and Citigroup gained 0.9%.</p>

<p>In the bond market, Treasury yields fell ahead of several major economic reports later in the week. The highlight will be Thursday's jobs report. It's often the most anticipated economic data of each month, and it will come a day earlier than usual because of Friday's Fourth of July holiday.</p>

<p>In other dealings early Tuesday, benchmark U.S. crude oil lost 37 cents to $64.74 per barrel, while Brent crude, the international standard, fell 35 cents per barrel to $66.39.</p>

<p>The U.S. dollar dipped to 143.86 Japanese yen from 144.04 yen. The euro rose to $1.1792 from $1.1789.</p>

NHL trade tracker: Maple Leafs deal Mitch Marner, plus other moves

<p>-

• NHL trade tracker: Maple Leafs deal Mitch Marner, plus other moves</p>

<p>Mike Brehm, USA TODAY June 30, 2025 at 10:25 PM</p>

<p>NHL free agency is just around the corner on July 1.</p>

<p>But there are also trades to be made as NHL teams acquire or move players to improve their immediate future or get their salary cap situation under control.</p>

<p>The Toronto Maple Leafs and Golden Knights pulled off a big trade on June 30, sending the rights to Mitch Marner to Vegas, which will sign him to an eight-year, $96 million deal, according to reports. The Golden Knights are sending forward Nicolas Roy to the Maple Leafs.</p>

<p>The Detroit Red Wings made their second trade in several days, sending forward Vladimir Tarasenko to the Minnesota Wild on June 30. They earlier acquired goalie John Gibson from the Anaheim Ducks.</p>

<p>Trades will pick up with free agency approaching. Tracking the latest NHL deals:</p>

<p>June 30: Golden Knights acquire Mitch Marner from Maple Leafs</p>

<p>The sign-and-trade deal allows Marner to sign an eight-year deal and lands them the top free agent in the 2025 class. Toronto was going to lose Marner for nothing in free agency, so they did well to get a roster player. Roy is signed through 2027 at a $3 million cap hit.</p>

<p>June 30: Red Wings trade Vladimir Tarasenko to Wild</p>

<p>Tarasenko has won two Stanley Cup titles, but he disappointed with 33 points in his lone season in Detroit, while averaging less than 15 minutes a game. He has another year on his contract at $4.75 million, so the Wild get secondary scoring at a reasonable price. Detroit gets future considerations in the deal.</p>

<p>June 30: Maple Leafs acquire Matias Maccelli from Mammoth</p>

<p>The Mammoth get a conditional 2027 third round pick in return. Maccelli, 24, gets a fresh start after dropping to 18 points in 55 games this past season. But he can provide secondary scoring for Toronto after totaling 106 points over the two seasons before that. If he gets 51 points this season and the Maple Leafs make the playoffs, the third rounder becomes a 2029 second-round pick.</p>

<p>June 30: Predators-Golden Knights trade</p>

<p>The Nashville Predators acquire defenseman Nicolas Hague and a conditional third-round pick from the Golden Knights in exchange for forward Colton Sissons and defenseman Jeremy Lauzon. Nashville will retain 50% of Sissons' salary. If Vegas wins two rounds in the 2026 playoffs, the Golden Knights will move a second-round pick instead.</p>

<p>June 28: Red Wings acquire John Gibson from Ducks</p>

<p>The Detroit Red Wings acquire goalie John Gibson from the Anaheim Ducks for goalie Petr Mrazek, a 2027 second- round pick and a 2026 fourth-round pick. Gibson had been mentioned in trade rumors for years and the Red Wings have needed better goaltending for years. Lukas Dostal has emerged as a No. 1 goalie in Anaheim and needs a new contract as a restricted free agent. Mrazek is a better fit financially at $4.25 million than Gibson at $6.4 million. Gibson, who will get more playing time in Detroit, had a solid season with a 2.77 goals-against average and .911 save percentage, a little better than how Cam Talbot and Alex Lyon performed.</p>

<p>June 28: Senators acquire Jordan Spence from Kings</p>

<p>Spence's ice time had dropped, particularly in the playoffs, so the trade gives him more opportunity. The defenseman is only 24. Los Angeles had drafted a defenseman, London's Henry Brzustewicz, in the first round. The Kings receive a 2025 third round pick and a 2026 sixth-rounder.</p>

<p>June 28: Sabres, Penguins swap defensemen</p>

<p>The Buffalo Sabres acquire defensemen Conor Timmins and Isaac Belliveau from the Pittsburgh Penguins for defenseman Connor Clifton and a 2025 second-round pick.. The Sabres are changing up their defense after earlier acquiring Michael Kesselring. Clifton is entering the final year of his contract. Timmins is four years younger.</p>

<p>Also: The Washington Capitals acquire defenseman Declan Chisholm and a 2025 sixth-round pick from the Minnesota Wild for defenseman Chase Priskie and a 2025 third-rounder.</p>

<p>June 27: Blue Jackets acquire Charlie Coyle, Miles Wood from Avalanche</p>

<p>The Avalanche get back 20-year-old forward Gavin Brindley, a third-round selection (77th overall) in the 2025 NHL Draft and a conditional 2027 second-rounder. This move helps the Blue Jackets' depth. Wood has a lot of speed and kills penalties. Coyle, acquired by the Avalanche at the trade deadline, had 25 goals two seasons ago. The Avalanche clear cap space.</p>

<p>June 27: Canadiens acquire Noah Dobson from Islanders</p>

<p>Dobson, a restricted free agent, signed an eight-year, $76 million extension as part of the deal, according to Friedman. Dobson, a skilled offensive defenseman, had 70 points two seasons ago and joins a Montreal blue line that features rookie of the year Lane Hutson. Islanders general manager Mathieu Darche gets two picks in the middle of the first round. Could he use the 16th and 17th picks as part of a package to move up in the draft? He didn't, drafting Victor Eklund and Kashawn Aitcheson. Heineman, whom the Islanders acquired from the Canadiens as part of the deal, is known for his speed and two-way ability.</p>

<p>June 26: Mammoth acquire JJ Peterka from Sabres</p>

<p>The Utah Mammoth will be aggressive this offseason as they head into their second season in Salt Lake City. Peterka is coming off a career-best 68 points and totaled 55 goals the past two seasons. The 23-year-old was a restricted free agent and signed a five-year deal with the Mammoth after the trade.</p>

<p>The Sabres, who need to adjust their roster to try to end a 14-season playoff drought, get back defenseman Michael Kesselring and forward Josh Doan. Kesselring, 25, had a career-best 29 points as he got more ice time because of injuries on the Utah blue line. Doan, 23, is the son of former Arizona Coyotes captain Shane Doan. He has another year left on his contract.</p>

<p>June 26: Panthers acquire Daniil Tarasov from the Blue Jackets</p>

<p>The Panthers give up a 2025 fifth-round pick for Tarasov, 26, a restricted free agent who became available with Jet Greaves emerging in Columbus. Current backup Vitek Vanecek is a pending unrestricted free agent. Tarasov has a career 3.44 goals-against average but those numbers should come down while playing behind a better Panthers defense. Sergei Bobrovsky will be 37 next season and has a year left on his contract. General Bill Zito potentially has found his future No. 1 goalie.</p>

<p>Also: The Seattle Kraken acquired two-way center Frederick Gaudreau from the Minnesota Wild for a 2025 fourth-round pick. ... In a free agency move, the Dallas Stars re-signed captain Jamie Benn for one year at $1 million, plus an additional $3 million in potential performance bonuses</p>

<p>June 25: Oilers trade Evander Kane to Canucks</p>

<p>This was a salary cap move, saving more than $5 million with the Oilers needing to re-sign defenseman Evan Bouchard. The Oilers get back a fourth-round pick. Kane, a Vancouver native, adds help on the wing with the Canucks expected to lose Brock Boeser to free agency.</p>

<p>June 23: Flyers acquire Trevor Zegras from Ducks</p>

<p>Zegras wanted to play center and the Ducks didn't have room for him there in their top six. The Flyers land a creative forward who has scored several lacrosse-style goals but also has dealt recently with injuries. The Ducks get back center Ryan Poehling, who wins faceoffs and kills penalties, two areas where Anaheim needed improvement. They also receive a 2025 second-round pick and a 2026 fourth-rounder.</p>

<p>Also: The Seattle Kraken acquired two-way center Frederick Gaudreau from the Minnesota Wild for a 2025 fourth-round pick.</p>

<p>June 25: Oilers trade Evander Kane to Canucks</p>
