NHL Rumors and Speculation

  • There’s some interest among the NHL in Vancouver Canucks forward Tyler Motte. In addition to him, teams have been asking about the availability of defenceman Nate Schmidt.
  • The Colorado Avalanche might’ve been the team that had interest in Buffalo Sabres goaltender Jonas Johansson.
  • There’s some speculation that the Winnipeg Jets could trade for hometown boy, Travis Hamonic.
  • The Calgary Flames have been in talks with the Nashville Predators in an attempt to address their need for a right-handed shooter.
  • The Carolina Hurricanes, Colorado Avalanche, and Washington Capitals are rumoured to be in the market for a goaltender as of late.
  • The Detroit Red Wings are considering “all options” but Dylan Larkin is considered “untouchable” as expected.
  • It might not be something that happens until the off-season, but Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins makes sense for the Edmonton Oilers long-term for the Edmonton Oilers.
  • The Toronto Maple Leafs have been rumoured to be in on Filip Forsberg, Mattias Ekholm, Mikael Granlund, Eric Staal, and Marc Staal in the last week.
  • The inconsistent Philadelphia Flyers’ plans for the trade deadline will depend upon their play in their next seven games against Washington, the Rangers and Islanders.
  • On Jack Eichel: “I don’t think he’s going anywhere right now.”
  • “As for trades, the Sabres are wide open for business. They are listening on just about everything they’ve got. I think they’re considering a “with Eichel” future and a “non-Eichel” future, but I don’t think that’s imminent, especially now with the injury. If they decide to go that way (non-Eichel), it’ll be around the draft.”
