Paljon asiaa siirtotakarajaan liittyen:
- Meanwhile, New Jersey has been eyeing a second-plus for
Sami Vatanen, who needs to get healthy.
- Tampa outbid Boston for Coleman, but Edmonton made a real push. A couple of teams said they heard he was the guy the Oilers would give up a first-rounder for.
- If the Coleman trade showed the rest of the NHL anything, it’s that the Devils may not really want to part with
Kyle Palmieri — but, if you make the right offer, they will do so. You also have to think that trade didn’t hurt Tom Fitzgerald’s long-term position in Jersey.
- This is good news for the Rangers, who continue to both negotiate with and generate the market for
Chris Kreider. Teams I think are interested: Boston, Colorado, New York Islanders and St. Louis (there could be more, obviously).
- It might come down to
Nolan Patrick’s health, but I think Philadelphia is considering
Jeff Carter.
- I do think Colorado checked out
Corey Crawford. But
Robin Lehner’s future ties into Chicago’s decision.
- Carolina, meanwhile, has had a lot of interest in Lehner, and has that extra first-rounder.
- It is rare that top-six centres become available, but Florida’s
Vincent Trocheck is generating attention. Age 26, two more years at under $5 million — teams can handle that. Won’t be inexpensive.
