Reports: Sabres & Blues Still Talking Trade—Now For Defenseman
We know that the Buffalo Sabres were knee-deep in Robert Thomas discussions with the St. Louis Blues on Tuesday. That much has been confirmed. As has the fact that the idea of the Sabres landing Thomas has now been put to bed. Not happening. However, that doesn't mean that the Sabres and Blues are done talking. Several reports suggest that Buffalo is still eyeing a right-shot defenseman from St. Louis, and that just could be Colton Parayko. As others have reported, keep an eye on Buffalo...
Maple Leafs' Chris Tanev Out for Season
The Toronto Maple Leafs will be without their best defensive defenceman for the rest of this season, as Chris Tanev has undergone core muscle surgery. Tanev is expected to make a full recovery in time for training camp in September. Tanev has been out for the majority of the season with multiple injuries. Back on November 1, the Leafs blueliner was stretchered off the ice and taken to hospital during a game in Philadelphia. Tanev missed multiple games and returned to the lineup in late Decembe...
New York Islanders Reject Vancouver Canucks Trade Offer
Trade talks around the NHL are wild at the moment, and two teams smack dab in the middle of it all are the New York Islanders and Vancouver Canucks. The Canucks have been busy moving Tyler Myers to the Dallas Stars, and have also had Conor Garland and Brock Boeser involved in trade offers. While Boeser has been linked to landing with the Bruins, the Canucks offered Garland to the Islanders for one of their best prospects. Vancouver wanted one of Kashawn Aitcheson or Cole Eiserman in return for...
Kiefer Sherwood Signs Big Extension With Sharks
Pending UFA Kiefer Sherwood was a big trade acquisition for the San Jose Sharks back in January. But the team reportedly had some "sticker shock" once they sat down with the player's camp to talk extension. The two sides have now worked all that out, and Sherwood is on board with a new, rich, five-year extension in San Jose. Kiefer Sherwood locks in 5 more years with the Sharks 🦈 🔒 pic.twitter.com/O6znNl1Vsl — Spittin' Chiclets (@spittinchiclets) March 4, 2026 The contract will pay the physica...
NHL Trade: Tyler Myers Finally Agrees to Trade
He's been held out of the Vancouver Canucks lineup for a week now, pondering his future with trade offers on the table. Finally, Tyler Myers has agreed to a deal sending him to the Dallas Stars.

Nazem Kadri Has Already Invoked No-Trade List
One of the top names on the market this week is Calgary Flames center Nazem Kadri. The gritty, edgy two-way center is the ultimate playoff trade addition, given his Stanley Cup pedigree and feisty play. He is ready to move on to a contender, but he has some say in the matter. His full no-move clause has reverted to a 13-team no-trade list this season, and word is he's already used it, according to insider Elliotte Friedman on NHL Network Radio : The one thing I've heard about Kadri is, h...
Next 3 Predators On Trade Block After Smith & McCarron Dealt
As of Wednesday morning, the Nashville Predators have been the most active team this week as we steam toward Friday's trade deadline. They shipped out two pending unrestricted free agents on Tuesday, sending Cole Smith to the Vegas Golden Knights, and Michael McCarron to the Minnesota Wild. Will they remain this active as the week progresses? While most hockey fans are salivating about the big names like Steven Stamkos, Ryan O'Reilly and/or Jonathan Marchessault potentially being next on the b...
NHLTR: Maple Leafs Trade Talks Involve 5 Players
Toronto Maple Leafs remain a team to watch heading into Friday's trade deadline, as general manager Brad Treliving is involved in multiple trade conversations. The Leafs are sellers ahead of this season's trade deadline, which is a situation they had no interest in being in at the start of the year. After a disappointing year, Treliving is trying to retool on the fly and has several players who could be on the move before Friday afternoon. Bobby McMann and Scott Laughton are the two who teams ...
Insider: Florida Panthers Confirmed Sellers Ahead of Trade Deadline
Florida Panthers general manager Bill Zito is listening to trade offers ahead of Friday's deadline, as the organization has decided to be sellers ahead of the trade deadline. TSN's Pierre LeBrun reports the Panthers have a couple of pending free-agents who teams are interested in, and a move, or two, could be coming within the next 48 hours. The Panthers lost again last night and my understanding is they've made the decision to be sellers as far as listening on pending UFAs, which most notably...
Flyers set High Price for Rasmus Ristolainen, Frontrunner Named
He's missed plenty of time this season, but Rasmus Ristolainen is back as a top-pairing Philadelphia Flyers defenseman, and he's proving to be a serious commodity at this trade deadline. The right-shot blueliner has been terrific in his time back in the lineup the past couple of months and is logging massive ice-time for Philly, culminating in a 27-minute workhorse effort in a win over Toronto Monday night. The Flyers will be charging a high price, though, for any team looking to t...
New Jersey Devils in advanced trade talks on RHD Simon Nemec
The New Jersey Devils are involved in trade talks surrounding right-handed defenceman Simon Nemec. TSN's Pierre LeBrun was first on the case and had this to share on Wednesday: Going to be interesting to see what happens on the Simon Nemec front. Devils are taking calls on the second overall pick from '22. No shortage of teams checking in. New Jersey happy to keep him, but if there's a deal that upgrades their forwards in a real way, they're going to… — Pierre LeBrun (@PierreVLeBrun) March 4, ...
NHLTR: Edmonton Oilers trading Andrew Mangiapane
The Andrew Mangiapane sweepstakes will be coming to an end over the next 48 hours, as the Edmonton Oilers are engaged in advanced trade talks around the struggling winger. Mangiapane was recently sent down by the Oilers to the AHL, and only played one shift, just to ensure he 'played' in one game, and is now eligible to be traded. The Oilers want to acquire a third-line center and have interest in Nic Roy and Scott Laughton off the Toronto Maple Leafs, but need to move Mangiapane first, to cle...
NHL Rumors: Sabres Backing Out of Trade Talks for Robert Thomas
The Buffalo Sabres - St. Louis Blues Robert Thomas trade buzz that dominated deadline chatter on Tuesday appears to have completely collapsed. After pushing aggressively to land the St. Louis Blues’ top centre, the Buffalo Sabres reportedly walked away from negotiations once the full asking price became clear. Sabres Blues Robert Thomas trade talks fall apart According to TSN insider Darren Dreger , the Sabres and Blues pushed negotiations as far as they could before hitting a wall.&...
TRADE: Golden Knights & Predators Complete Deal
The Nashville Predators and Vegas Golden Knights linked up on a late-night deal that sent bottom-six forward Cole Smith to the desert. Predators Golden Knights trade adds grit in Vegas Vegas landed Smith for a 2028 third-round pick and defense prospect Christoffer Sedoff.

Predators' Ryan O'Reilly exits game with cut near eye
A very scary scene on Tuesday night as Nashville Predators forward Ryan O'Reilly had to leave the game after being cut near his eye. The Predators were playing the Columbus Blue Jackets Tuesday night and O'Reilly was struck near his left eye with a stick, very close to be severely harmful. The Preds forward was hit with Charlie Coyle's errant stick off a faceoff midway through the third period, and he did not return. "For those who are concerned about Ryan O'Reilly, we expect that he is ...
Maple Leafs & Wild Emerging as Trade Partners
The Toronto Maple Leafs and Minnesota Wild are becoming more and more plausible trade partners as Friday's deadline creeps closer.

Maple Leafs Wild trade partners for Scott Laughton Laughton feels like the best fit if Minnesota wants a dependable middle of t...
Breaking Trade: Michael McCarron Heads To Central Division Rival For Playoff Run
Michael McCarron is one of the biggest names (as in, 6-foot-6, 232 pounds) available this week for teams looking for a massive, rugged presence in their bottom-six heading into the playoffs. The Nashville Predators pulled the pending UFA from their lineup Tuesday night, and we learned shortly after that he has been traded to the Minnesota Wild. TRADE ALERT: #MNWild acquire Michael McCarron from #Preds for 2028 2nd round pick, per @RussoHockey — NHL News (@PuckReportNHL) March 4, 20...
Oilers Now Focusing On One Need Heading to Trade Deadline
The Edmonton Oilers went out and addressed their blueline with a trade for Connor Murphy a few days back. Now it's time to focus on the top-nine, and their focus, according to TSN insider Pierre LeBrun , is a physical third-line center. But first, he says, they need to separate themselves from Andrew Mangiapane and his $3.6M cap hit (currently residing in the AHL after he went unclaimed on waivers on the weekend). They spent a lot of time Tuesday, I'm told, trying to find a landing spot ...

Western Team Circling Back On Canadiens' Patrik Laine
It was just one week ago that we learned of a major suitor for Patrik Laine dropping out of talks with the Montreal Canadiens on a possible trade. But things have changed for the Los Angeles Kings since then. And it sounds like they're back in. Trade talk surrounding #GoHabsGo winger Patrik Laine has picked up a little more, and I’m told the #GoKingsGo are circling back on him. Other teams in the mix, too. We’ll see if Montreal retains 50% of his $8.7M AAV, but expectations remain high t...
Islanders & Canucks in Serious Discussions For Trade
One team that many of us may be sleeping on as we approach Friday's deadline is the New York Islanders . There haven't been a lot of rumors about who they might be chasing. But we do know that GM Mathieu Darche wants to reward his team for the unexpected playoff-bound season they're having. According to Vancouver Canucks insider Rick Dhaliwal , we should all be keeping an eye on the Islanders. He says that Conor Garland is on their radar. Dhaliwal: Keep an eye on the Isles. T...
Jake DeBrusk Says He's Open To a Trade... In So Many Words
How do you ask for a trade, without asking for one? When rumors starting floating around last week about Jake DeBrusk being a trade candidate, Vancouver Canucks insiders sniffed around and concluded that DeBrusk had NOT asked for a trade. He apparently wanted to see through whatever rebuild the Canucks were undertaking. But then he said this in the Vancouver Province on Tuesday, per Ben Kuzma : I think a rebuild is hard for every player, but at the same point it’s a great opportuni...

Two Top Young Canadiens Players Blues Are Eyeing in a Robert Thomas Trade
The Montreal Canadiens seem to be the team most often cited in rumors surrounding St. Louis Blues ' star center Robert Thomas. But as insider Pierre LeBrun said on TSN today , "I was told as of last night, the price is still astronomical... As it should be! 26-year-old No. 1 centers on a decent contract don't come around very often. I think St. Louis is well within its rights to ask for the moon for Robert Thomas." It's being said that Blues GM Doug Armstrong is asking for the equivalent...
NHL Trade Rumors: Surprising Team Emerging In Dougie Hamilton Trade Talks
The New Jersey Devils are expected to trade defenceman Dougie Hamilton before Friday's trade deadline and while the Carolina Hurricanes, Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs have been heavily linked the past few weeks, it turns out there's a new team that could surprise, and come out on top.
