Two Teams On Dylan Larkin's 3-Team List Appear To Be OUT
The Dylan Larkin drama continues to play out in Detroit, but of his three-team trade list, it appears that only one is a realistic destination at this point, while the other two are OUT. That seems to be the case, according to Minnesota Wild insider Michael Russo, speaking on The Sheet this week. Two teams are out on Dylan Larkin, but Minnesota is still interested. 👀 According to Michael Russo on The Sheet, the Vegas Golden Knights and Florida Panthers currently don’t have interest in La...
Video: Ottawa Senators Rejected Multiple Draft-Day Trade Offers
The Ottawa Senators have been a team to watch this offseason, as they've flipped their team on it's head, trading captain Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers. Tkachuk reportedly wasn't the same in the dressing room once he returned from winning a gold medal with Team USA, and many Senators felt this was coming at some point this summer. General manager Steve Staios had to move on, and the Tkachuk deal wasn't the only trade discussed by Ottawa this offseason. At the NHL Draft in June, Staios ...
Free-Agent Michael Bunting Linked To 3 Teams
The NHL's free-agent market still has a few proven forwards among those available, and Michael Bunting is one of the best wingers left on the open market. The free-agent winger has yet to sign a contract for next season, despite being linked to several teams throughout the summer. Bunting's a pest, he plays an in-your-face style of game, he's not afraid to muck it up in the dirty areas of the ice, and he's shown in the past he has finishing abilities around the front of the net. Last season, B...
Blue Jackets & Golden Knights Linked To Offseason Trade
Keep an eye on the offseason trade market, as while action has slowed down of late for NHL transactions, it sounds like there could be a deal brewing between the Vegas Golden Knights and Columbus Blue Jackets. The Golden Knights have been shopping goaltender Adin Hill and would love to try and land Elvis Merzlikins from the Blue Jackets in return. This trade would materialize into a bigger package than just a goalie swap, but this is the first time in the offseason that Hill's been linked to a...
Flyers Ramping Up Trade Talks With Islanders
The Philadelphia Flyers ' search for help on the blue line is leading them back to a familiar name. Per Marco D'Amico , the Flyers have "kicked tires" on New York Islanders defenseman Alexander Romanov, a player Philadelphia also pursued last offseason before he ultimately re-signed with New York. Two Bigger Misses Set This Up The renewed interest comes after Philadelphia struck out on two more prominent names in free agency. The Flyers were unable to land John Carlson, who signed with Tam...
Trade Asking Price For Flames' Zach Whitecloud

Per PuckPedia , Calgary's active blue line lists Kevin Bahl, Jake Middleton, Whitecloud, Simon Nemec, Zayne Parekh, Yan Kuznetsov, Brayden Pachal, and Joel Hanley, with prospect Hunter Brzustewicz pushing for a spot on top of that.

3 Veterans Ducks Could Lose To Pay Their Next Big Contract
The Anaheim Ducks have a bill coming due, and it may cost them some familiar faces to pay it. Per Andre Leal of The Hockey News , three Ducks forwards could become salary-cap casualties as Anaheim clears room for restricted free agent Cutter Gauthier's next contract: Alex Killorn, Chris Kreider, and Frank Vatrano. The Numbers Gauthier, 21, is coming off a breakout season and could command between $14 million and $15 million annually on his next deal, a massive commitment for a team still b...
Kirill Marchenko's Future Depends On One Factor, per NHL Insider
Kirill Marchenko's future in Columbus is very much up in the air at this point. Ever since it was reported that Marchenko is unlikely to re-sign next summer as a restricted free agent, rumors have been circulating about the player wanting out, though both sides have pushed back on that. He has just one season remaining on his three-year, $3.85 million AAV deal. There's currently no talk of an extension. The Blue Jackets are facing some major upcoming financial commitments to other young core p...

Report: Montreal Canadiens Mulling Over Multiple Trade Offers
The Montreal Canadiens continue to tinker with their roster ahead of training camp next month, and there's a very good chance we see a trade involving one of their rugged defenceman. The Canadiens continue to take calls on restricted free-agent blueliner Arber Xhekaj. The 24-year-old is without a contract and brings a very dynamic skill set to the table, as he's willing and able to play a very physical game, and is one of the more intimidating presences in the NHL. Anthony Di Marco: Re Arber X...

Insider Explains What Really Drove Brady Tkachuk Out Of Ottawa
Brady Tkachuk's exit from Ottawa this offseason didn't come out of nowhere, but even those closest to him say they didn't see it coming. Speaking on DLLS Stars , the show's host spoke on the strangeness of it. "This team went through, I was just saying this, it almost went through like what the Buffalo Sabres went through, except for less, because the playoff drought wasn't 14 years... And now you have Brady Tkachuk gone. What happened? Why did they feel, other, obviously, Tkachuk said he was ...
Insider Predicts Connor Hellebuyck Trade To Atlantic Division Team
The Connor Hellebuyck trade speculation is far from dead, but two big voices in the conversation aren't reading the situation the same way right now. On NHL Network, EJ Hradek made his position clear. "I'm of the mind he's going to get traded. I'm of the mind I think he's going to get traded to Buffalo," Hradek said. "But as you like to say, Elliotte, there's no pressure right now, right? Like we're in early August, so I think they're bickering about what the price is. As we get closer, maybe ...

Stanley Cup Champion Dustin Byfuglien's Joke At A Fishing Tournament
Dustin Byfuglien , a one-time Stanley Cup champion, made a stunning admission this week. The now-retired tough-guy played for three teams (Atlanta Thrashers, Winnipeg Jets, and Chicago Blackhawks ) during his NHL career and won a Stanley Cup with the Blackhawks during their dynastic run beginning in 2009-10. Byfuglien was never known for his scoring abilities, but came close to 20-goal seasons multiple times, and never put up more than 40+ points during an NHL season. "...
Patrik Laine Is NOT A Fit For Maple Leafs: NHL Analyst
Word began to spread last week that unsigned free agent Patrik Laine still had five teams with potential interest in bringing him in. One of those five that was listed by Herb Zurkowsky of the Montreal Gazette , happened to be the Toronto Maple Leafs . But would the oft-injured former Montreal Canadien be a reasonable fit for Toronto? Not according to TSN hockey analyst Frankie Corrado . As he explained on First Up on Tuesday morning, there might be a team out there that says,...

Cale Makar Extension Questions Emerge
The NHL's salary structure has broken into new dizzying heights this summer, thanks to the Leo Carlsson $18 million offer sheet and subsequent matching by the Anaheim Ducks. We have since seen an $18.8 million AAV deal signed by Macklin Celebrini. So who's next to break the mold and set a new high for an NHL contract? It certainly could be Cale Makar, the Colorado Avalanche 's dynamic defenseman and annual Norris Trophy candidate. He's been eligible to sign an extension since July 1st, b...
3 Maple Leafs Most Likely To Be Traded
Toronto Maple Leafs general manager John Chayka is known as being someone who loves to wheel and deal, and early on in his tenure as Leafs GM, he's shown that narrative is 100% accurate. Chayka's made some significant changes to the Maple Leafs roster in three short months, and while for now it appears their team is set heading into training camp, expect to see Chayka active during the season, tinkering with his lineup via trade. Here's three Maple Leafs who are most likely to be traded this s...
Detroit Red Wings Reject Multiple Trade Offers
The Detroit Red Wings are putting their feet in the sand and standing still, holding firm on their trade demands for captain Dylan Larkin. The trade talks have been ongoing since the end of last season, and frankly, they haven't been very close to a deal at all so far this summer. Despite not having a general manager, the Red Wings management team continues to have Larkin's name in trade dialogue, but have recently been telling teams they won't settle for less than a top-line, proven, NHL-tale...
3 Los Angeles Kings Most Likely To Be Traded
The Los Angeles Kings are a team to watch heading into next season. The Kings are expected to sit in the middle, and aren't necessarily a contending team in 2026-27, so they could be a very important team come trade deadline time. The Kings are without Anze Kopitar this season, as the franchise great announced his retirement. The Kings haven't really done a good enough job replacing Kopitar up front, and with several question marks throughout their lineup, it could be a long season in southern...

Insider Says Dallas Still Believes In Zach Werenski Deal
Zach Werenski already said no to the Dallas Stars once. According to at least one insider, that isn't the end of the story. Asked by Keith Kavanaugh whether he thinks a Stars deal for Werenski is off the table, Jeff Marek's answer was: 'Nope, I don't.' How This Started The reigning Norris Trophy winner informed the Columbus Blue Jackets he wouldn't sign another contract with the team once his current deal expires after 2027-28.
