Start Here.
On Jonathan Drouin...
Drouin is skating and while it appears he may still be a few weeks away from contact it now is apparent he WILL be back a few weeks prior to the deadline and teams are very interested. Colorado has always believed in reuniting Drouin with his juniors linemate MacKinnon They were deadly in juniors and had unreal chemistry...The Avs have the ability to make a few moves here. Calgary also really likes Drouin and ALMOST got him before Tampa moved him to Montreal.
On Tyler Toffoli...
This is another target for the Flames. The Islanders, Oilers, Bruins and Flyers have some hope of landing this experiences playoff performer with an edge...
On Andreas Athanasiou....
The Streaking Jackets are unquestionably the buyers with the largest credit limit. They need additional scoring to take the pressure off... they aren't alone on Athanasiou, although I am hearing Edmonton is not interested any more...Holland had him in Detroit...
On Hoffman...
Mike Hoffman may be the biggest fish availalble and he is hot right now. 10 points in his last 8 games. This is Lou's target on the Island, but a trade in conference will take some doing. Vancouver has special interest in Hoffman too...I am told there is a connection to someone on the team? Anyone else able to figure out who exactly?
On JG Pageau...
This is Edmonton's main target as of now...and it makes sense.. Centers are tough to find and Pageau's speed and creativity are All-Star level...
