2 Calgary Flames Named Prime Trade Candidates

The Calgary Flames are likely going to finish dead last in the NHL this season, and general manager Craig Conroy is tasked with another fire sale. There's certainly multiple trade assets to consider for the Flames, as Daily Faceoff's Mike Gould recently mentioned to keep an eye on a couple Flames. Gould lists Morgan Frost and Zach Whitecloud as the two players most likely to be dealt this season. Frost is a pending unrestricted free agent, who is certainly going to be appealing to contending t...

NY Rangers Scouting Buffalo Sabres Goaltending

The New York Rangers are doing their due diligence around the league, as general manager Chris Drury tries to find the best solution moving forward for his goaltending. Igor Shesterkin is out for the season and even though Dylan Garand has performed well in place of Shesterkin so far this season, Drury is expected to go out and acquire a experienced goaltender to tandem with Garand moving forward.  Drury had a slew of scouts attend a recent Montreal Canadiens/Buffalo Sabres game, and many...

Maple Leafs Announce Details On Chris Tanev Injury Status

The Toronto Maple Leafs have made an announcement on the latest on Chris Tanev's status. And it's not promising. He will be out "week to week" with an upper-body injury. Leafs announce Chris Tanev is now considered “week-to-week” with an upper-body injury @TSN_Sports — Mark Masters (@markhmasters) October 15, 2026 What makes this difficult to swallow, if you're the Leafs, is that Tanev received a mere "bump" in front of the net in the first period against the Colorado Avalanche, the type of ...

Report: Kings & Jets Discussing Connor Hellebuyck Trade

But now, a report from Frank Seravalli of Sportsnet tells us that the LA Kings are seriously looking into a trade with the Winnipeg Jets for the three-time Vezina winner.

Will Smith Extension With Sharks Starting To Come Into Focus

With all the talk about Leo Carlsson, Connor Bedard, Macklin Celebrini, Cutter Gauthier and Adam Fantilli this past offseason, the one name that nobody mentioned much was San Jose Sharks' young star forward Will Smith. And if we're talking massive contract extensions, he is the next man up.  Smith was the fourth pick in that vaunted 2023 Draft Class, and he has watched as most of his big-name cohorts have gotten their new deals in place, at big bucks.  David Pagnotta tells us, on the...

Report: NY Rangers Linked To Maple Leafs' Goalie Anthony Stolarz

It's true that Anthony Stolarz did not have his best game for the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday night in Utah. A couple of soft ones got by him, allowing the Mammoth to escape with a 5-4 win. But let's be honest—that doesn't mean the Leafs are going to go looking to trade Stolarz.  Does it?  According to insider Darren Dreger , speaking on the Ray & Dregs podcast on Wednesday, the New York Rangers are eyeing Stolarz as one of the options in their tentative search for a potential goa...

Report: Larkin Will Be A Canadien 'Within An Hour' If He Approves Montreal

We've all heard the 20,000 Montreal Canadiens GMs (i.e. fans) making their pitch to get Dylan Larkin to accept a trade. The "We Want Larkin" chants were raining down at the Bell Centre when the Detroit Red Wings were in town last weekend.   Larkin admitted afterwards that it was "very interesting," and "They’re passionate fans. This is, in my opinion, the best atmosphere in hockey."  To this point, Larkin has not opened his limited approved trade list to include Montreal. But ac...

Canucks' Make Surprising Decision Waiving Aatu Raty

The Vancouver Canucks are one NHL team that has had issues reaching contender status since their last trip to the playoffs under Rick Tocchet as a fringe candidate.  Once the team dealt players like J.T. Miller back to the Rangers and Bo Horvat to the Islanders , there was a real drop-off in talent aside from Elias Pettersson.  Raty was acquired in a trade for the Canucks former captain, Horvat, forward Anthony Beauvillier, and a conditional 2023 first-round pick. Raty was considered...

Flyers Rejecting Plenty Of Trade Offers

The Philadelphia Flyers came close, but no cigar, in their attempt to register their first win of the season Tuesday night. A 3-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken leaves them at 0-5-3 after eight games, and everyone in the team's orbit is calling for major changes.  GM Danny Briere is certainly open to making trades to change up his roster, but to this point, he's rejected plenty of offers, according to insider Frank Seravalli.  Speaking on the Oilers Now podcast, Seravalli explained that ...

Major Development In Simon Edvinsson Trade Rumors

Teams around the NHL have been lining up to have a chance at pitching the Detroit Red Wings on a Simon Edvinsson trade. The latest news, however, from Wings GM Shawn Horcoff should put all that talk to rest.  Shawn Horcoff: “I have zero interest in trading Simon Edvinsson” — Max Bultman (@m_bultman) October 14, 2026  I have zero interest in trading Simon Edvinsson. Not something I'm entertaining. We want to sign him. This emphatic statement shutting down trade talks comes despite the...

4 Maple Leafs' Trade Targets To Replace Chris Tanev

The Toronto Maple Leafs are thin on their blueline, after defensive defenceman Chris Tanev recently went down with an upper-body injury. Considering Tanev's health history, there's some cause for concern in Toronto, and general manager John Chayka is going to have to trade for some help if Tanev is expected to miss a couple of months. So far, no word on confirmed timelines, but again, it didn't look good. Chayka has been wheeling and dealing since he took over this past offseason, and it's obv...

NHL Trade Rumors: Wild & Red Wings Continue To Discuss Dylan Larkin Trade

Minnesota Wild general manager Bill Guerin would love to get his hands on Detroit Red Wings forward Dylan Larkin. Trade talks have been ongoing for weeks, and there's certainly some speculation brewing that the two sides are getting closer to the finish line. Larkin asked out months ago and management sat on their hands. Steve Yzerman has since been fired from his GM post, and Shawn Horcoff has taken over, and has been given permission to move Larkin in the right deal. Ownership must approve t...

Blue Jackets Head Coach Slams His 'Embarrassing' Hockey Team

The Columbus Blue Jackets are a mess, and head coach Rick Bowness is once again fed up. The fiery bench boss didn't mince any words after his team lost 7-3 to the Florida Panthers on Tuesday night. The Blue Jackets were absolutely dominated throughout the entire game, which included a natural hat-trick from Brady Tkachuk. Bowness spoke after the game and ripped his team into shreds. “You have to hope, you got to believe that performance tonight will embarrass them enough to stop this, right?” ...

Report: Alex DeBrincat & Red Wings Agree To Massive 7-Year Extension

This one seemingly comes out of nowhere. A silver lining in a dark cloud of a season. Detroit Red Wings sniper Alex DeBrincat has reportedly agreed to terms on a massive new seven-year extension worth about $13 million annually.  Despite Detroit’s tough 5-4 overtime loss to New Jersey, there appears to be an important off-ice victory for the Red Wings. Word is team and Alex DeBrincat closing in on approximately 7 x $13M extension They needed some good news and are about to get it. — El...

Report: Maple Leafs doing 'due diligence' as they contemplate trade

The Toronto Maple Leafs aren't going to rush into a trade for another defenceman just because their best defensive defenceman went down with injury. According to TSN's Pierre LeBrun, the Maple Leafs are doing some internal due diligence on potential replacements for Chris Tanev, who went down Saturday night with an upper-body injury against the Colorado Avalanche. Tanev appeared in just 11 games last season due to concussion, spine, and core-muscle injuries, and now have no timeline on when Ta...

'Real Possibility' The Hughes Brothers Link Up In NEITHER New Jersey OR Minnesota

The Minnesota Wild are six games into the new season (and doing just fine, thank you, at 4-1-1), but a Quinn Hughes extension is nowhere in sight. The pending unrestricted free agent defenseman is in no rush to sign an extension in Minnesota for now, and despite the strong start, it's still got many Wild fans uncomfortable.  The most talked-about holdup is that Hughes wants to play with his brothers, Jack and Luke, and everyone seems to think they'll hook up together to play with the New ...

7 Best-Fit Trade Destinations Listed For Simon Edvinsson

With reports that about a third of the league would be interested in trading for Simon Edvinsson, there are plenty of rumors surrounding the Detroit Red Wings' unsigned restricted free agent. And undoubtedly, if you asked fans in the 31 other NHL markets, the number would be even higher.  The top-pairing D-man and the Wings are still far apart in contract talks, and the 23-year-old has said that he 'prefers' to be traded at this point. We learned today that he's at least returning to Nort...

Hurricanes Get Shocking News On Captain Jordan Staal

The Carolina Hurricanes have been dealt a tough break with the shocking news that captain and Conn Smythe Trophy winner Jordan Staal will miss the next one to two months. Oh no.

Latest Flyers Rumor Indicates Konecny Could Be On The Way Out

The knives are out in Philadelphia as the Flyers are off to the worst start in the NHL, and there's no sign of relief. And while certain trade candidates have emerged, it appears that the one player who has garnered the most frustration around the team is longtime Flyer Travis Konecny.  According to a ruthless report from sources to  Daily Faceoff's Anthony Di Marco , Konecny has certainly fallen out of favor in Philly.  Speaking with sources Monday, there is a growing sense of ...

NHL Trade Rumors: Sabres pushing for 3-way trade with Jets, Rangers

The NHL's goalie market is an interesting place, as Connor Hellebuyck continues to sit around waiting for a trade to materialize, meanwhile in New York, the Rangers lost Igor Shesterkin for the season. In Buffalo, the Sabres have been trying for months to acquire Hellebuyck, but there's been some speculation that a big hold up in talks is that Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen has the Jets on his no-trade clause, which covers five teams.  What's come up in the last few days? It sounds like UPL doesn't...

3 Philadelphia Flyers' Trade Candidates As Roster Changes Coming

The Philadelphia Flyers are the worst team in hockey, and there's certainly going to be some drastic changes made to their roster. Word is, head coach Rick Tocchett is safe, and general manager Daniel Briere is going to turn to his roster to advance in trade talks to see how he can make some adjustments, and more importantly, some upgrades. The Flyers enter Tuesday's action with a 0-5-2 record, being outscored 28-8, and it doesn't appear any help is on the way anytime soon. Here's three Flyers...
