FREE AGENT CLASSIFICATIONS (Courtesy of NHL.com)
Group 2 (Restricted Free Agents) - Subject to compensation and right to match. The players listed below have been tendered a qualifying offer by their respective Clubs and are subject to draft-choice compensation and right to match. The draft choice compensation scale is based on compensation offered by the new Club:

OFFER COMPENSATION
$1,020,348 or below - None
Over $1,020,348 to $1,545,981 - Third-round choice
Over $1,545,981 to $3,091,963 - Second-round choice
Over $3,091,963 to $4,637,944 - First-round and third-round choice
Over $4,637,944 to $6,183,925 - First-round, second-round and third-round choice
Over $6,183,925 to $7,729,907 - Two first-round choices, one second- and one third-round choice
Over $7,729,907 - Four first-round choices

Group 3 (Unrestricted Free Agents) - The following players have qualified for Group 3 Free Agency (age 27 or older or with at least seven Accrued Seasons) and are Unrestricted Free Agents.

Group 6 (Unrestricted Free Agents) - The following players qualify for unrestricted free agency, having met the requirements for Group 6 free agency. These players, whose contracts have expired, are age 25 or older, have completed three or more professional seasons, and (i) in the case of a player other than a goaltender, have played less than 80 NHL games (regular-season and playoff), or (ii) in the case of a goaltender, have played less than 28 NHL games (regular-season and playoff).

Unrestricted Free Agents - The players marked (UFA) were not tendered a qualifying offer and are therefore Unrestricted Free Agents not subject to a right to match or draft choice compensation.
