Ken Holland has mused about it. The problem with the Wings is they're just getting started with a rebuild, and giving up multiple firsts would cut if off at the ankles.

I could see the Knights taking a shot. They have loads of picks and prospects and can afford to give up some picks.

The Flyers seem to be getting impatient. Ditto for the Panthers.

As for the targets, there's no point making an offer that the team will have no trouble matching. So the Flames, Avs, Canucks, and Hurricanes are safe. The Leafs, Jets, and Lightning, however, are vulnerable.

So I could see the Wings taking a run at Connor. Or the Flyers at Marner.
