Kyle Okposo will have no shortage of options as an unrestricted free agent.
With the free-agent contact window now open, at least five teams have already expressed interest in the winger's services, a source told Arthur Staple of Newsday.
That list of clubs reportedly includes the Winnipeg Jets, St. Louis Blues, Los Angeles Kings, Minnesota Wild, and Detroit Red Wings.
Okposo is set to officially hit the open market July 1 after eight seasons with the New York Islanders, who drafted him seventh overall in 2007.
