Jeff Marek's new blog "Rink Fries" lists players he has heard mentioned in trade talks around the league. Couple of CP favorites on the list this week, including Giordano, Gallagher, Toffoli and Foresberg:
Quote:
Mark Giordano: With Seattle looking more and more like a traditional expansion team I think we’re all wondering what the play is for Giordano here? The believed ask by GM Ron Francis to stay away from him at the expansion draft was a first and a third. Too rich for Calgary. But you wonder if Giordano’s thinking about a shot at the Stanley Cup and the Kraken are looking at their roster and wonder who they had to flip to lurch their program ahead.

Quote:
Brendan Gallagher: Has mused openly about not being interested in sticking around for a rebuild. He’s a heart a soul player (with great underlying numbers so both camps go home happy here), would be tough to part with, but teams dream about having this type of player in the mix.

Quote:
Tyler Toffoli: Much like Gallagher, if the Habs go the tear down and rebuild model does Toffoli want to be part of it at this stage of his career? This is not what he signed up for when he joined the Habs.

Quote:
Filip Forsberg: For me, so much of Nashville’s future is about the decision GM David Poile makes on Forsberg. Trade him and we're looking at some type of rebuild (competitive or otherwise), keep him and they’re going for it again.
