Quinn Hughes is eventually getting traded from the Vancouver Canucks, and while all the attention has been on the New Jersey Devils, and rightfully so considering both his brothers play there, one team that's gained a ton of traction of late as a prime destination is the Philadelphia Flyers. According to hockey insider Frank Seravalli, who is very dialed in on Flyers transactions, reports that the team is very interested in Hughes, and could make sense as a trade partner. “I think they’r...

The V ancouver Canucks are third-last in the NHL and have two wins in their past 10 games. Along with injuries, this is a team that has it tough and looks to be on the path to selling some pieces, maybe even major ones, by the trade deadline. Among the players generating a lot of interest is Kiefer Sherwood, who leads the Canucks in goals with 12 and is tied in second amongst forwards with 16 points. This is a player who leads the league in hits as well, as he already has 106 hits in 26 games....

A big development on Saturday night, as Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman reported the Edmonton Oilers are open to making a goaltending trade, but aren't going to make a move they consider to be a 'lateral' trade.

The Toronto Maple Leafs are still looking to switch a few things up on their roster and the Nashville Predators are headed into full seller mode with how things have gone over the past two seasons. This sets up a possibility of a trade involving the two teams. According to Elliotte Friedman, "I'm hearing that there is interest from the Leafs in a Michael Bunting reunion. Not sure what gets it done, but I believe Maccelli may be part of the return." Bunting is in the final year of his three-yea...

The Philadelphia Flyers are off to a solid start to the season, at 13-7-3. But in the red-hot Metropolitan Division, that's only good for a three-way tie for 4th place going into play on Saturday. But the Flyers want more, as noted by Kevin Kurz of The Athletic : " We can safely assume that if the Flyers are going to move their rebuild forward, they need to do it with a big trade or two." So does that mean that anyone on the roster is on the table in trade talks for someone like Quinn Hughes? ...

New York Islanders forward Kyle Palmieri has reached legend status. The veteran forward went into the boards awkwardly on Friday night against the Philadelphia Flyers, ended up tearing his ACL on the play, meanwhile was able to get to his feet, make a nice pass, which lead to an Islanders goal. It's a brutal blow for the Islanders, who are surprising a ton of people this year being in the mix for a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. Per the team release: Kyle Palmieri will get surgery to ...

Blake Coleman knows his name is out there. The 33 year old winger has one year left at a $4.9 million cap hit, a 10 team trade list, and has arguably been Calgary’s most reliable forward during a miserable start that has them near the bottom of the standings. If general manager Craig Conroy decides to sell, Coleman could be one of the first names made available.

The Vancouver Canucks are in sell mode— specifically on their pending unrestricted free agents —as we learned earlier this week. One of those is Kiefer Sherwood, whose name we've heard on the rumor mill all season.

That's a 40-goal pace for the hard-hitting forward, who set his previous best last season with 19 goals. But given that ma...

The Toronto Maple Leafs didn't appear to like the game that Brandon Carlo played once he got to the team and finished out the season. He was a trade deadline acquisition from the Boston Bruins and they overpaid considering how the other side has turned out for Boston and how the Maple Leafs aren't happy with the result on their end. This led to the Maple Leafs attempting to trade Carlo in multiple different ways in the offseason. According to Nick Kypreos, "There's a strong suggestion Toronto ...

The only issue is, Stamkos owns a full no-movement clause, and has all the say in the matter, and he's apparently not interested in very many teams outside of Nashville. Rumor has it, Stamkos would prefer to stay in Nashville and work himself out of this hole with his current teammates, or, he'd like to return to the Tampa Bay Lightning. Yes, it was quit...
