from Kevin Allen of USA TODAY,
On July 1, the interview period would begin. The objective would be to have a parade of players moving from city to city for interviews. It would be similar to what goes on in the NBA, NFL and Major League Baseball when free agents, fly in, spend a day with a team, meeting the coaches and talking to other players. They see real estate agents, review the area, and talk to folks about schools. That seems much more professional than the NHL microwave approach to signing free agents.
During the interview process, teams would be free to negotiate with players all they want, but no one can sign until July 8.
