2015/2016 Trade Speculation and Rumors

[sureLoss]

John Shannon @JSportsnet
Hearing St Louis wants a first rounder badly. Do they move a core piece to do it? Backe? Oshie? Steen? #NHLDraft

Elliotte Friedman @FriedgeHNIC
This morning, mentioned LA interested in Lucic but couldn't make it work. Understand LA/BOS revisiting it this afternoon. We'll see.

#15 for Oshie? Then package our 2nds/3rd etc to get into the 1st round again?

@CraigCustance: There's a gap in early contract talks between Jets & Byfuglien. Have to wonder if they'd move him rather than let him play out final year.

I'm curious why some people are big on Oshie.

The guy is 28 and has scored over 20 goals once in his career. Seems like a high price for a aging second tier winger. Isn't he basically a slightly younger Lee Stempniak?

If the Flames can get him to sign he'd be perfect for the defense!

I'd be afraid that big buff would eat Johnny during practice or something.

Teams are kicking tires on Byfuglien but Jets preference is to keep him.

Or he might throw Johnny's track suit into the shower while Johnny is still in it.

Have you watched him? Kid plays with a ton of heart. Hustles, hits, lays it all out there. One of the types of guys who brings a lot more to the table than just his offensive stats.

I'd love Oshie or Backes.

There is sure to be some more moves coming now after the Hamilton trade. I'm guessing Wideman goes somewhere.

[sureLoss]

The Mayor John Hoven @mayorNHL
#LAKings trade is close. Will also change "move up" plans.

[jg13]

I wonder if teams are into Wideman right now.

Giordano - Brodie
Russell - Hamilton

We shouldn't keep Wideman if he's going to be on the 3rd pairing. We should be trying to cash in.

Sounds like Lucic to Kings is close

Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Kings remain interested in Lucic. Asking price is steep. Multiple prospects.

If true, this just solidifies that Los Angeles seems to put a very low emphasis on speed.

[Ashasx]

Wow. Bruins would have 13th, 14th, and 15th picks.

Have a feeling there's a good chance Canes could deal Skinner. If so, it likely would be a hockey trade involving another forward.

Skinner for Raymond?

[OILFAN #81]

Haha a league scout just said Bruins are in on Patrick Sharp. That makes a ton of sense......

Per a Shawn Hutcheon tweet

I really have a feeling Treliving isn't done yet today.
