NHL Trade Alert

DFO Insiders (Nov 4): Update on Detroit… • Sounds like there has been more activity on Edvinsson lately. • San Jose’s interest has picked up and Misa’s name has been popping up. Dave says Detroit would need more but San Jose would be comfortable doing a 1 for 1 trade. • The guys discuss other young San Jose players, Pagnotta says Will Smith isn’t going anywhere. • Nashville and St. Louis haven’t walked away from this. • Larkin has settled in on his 10 team list.

Saturday Headlines (Nov 7): Notes from Elliotte… • Pittsburgh wants to get younger, faster and make opportunities for their young players. • Chicago has become very active. They own some 1sts and 2nds from other teams that are available and are getting asked about young players and prospects. • Montreal is operating under the impression that Michael Hage and Alexander Zharovsky will be available to them at the end of their seasons. • There is noise around Jordan Binnington. He is a UFA and has a 10 team no trade list.

When asked if Kucherov’s trade request is a negotiation ploy, Elliotte says all the information he’s gathered tells him that if Kucherov says something then he means it.

The Fan Hockey Show (Nov 6): Elliotte says there are some teams out there whose seasons are getting to a point where they might have to make a move. He says "Do we see a team that kind of makes a trade where they're like, we didn't think we'd be in this position this year and we got to do something."

The Chris Johnston Show (Nov 2): CJ says Buffalo has made Detroit a pretty big offer for Dylan Larkin recently but he isn’t willing to go there at this time.

I listened to the @HockeyAgent1 interview on @thesheethockey again from yesterday. There is a ton of interesting information in that one. Go check it out, it’s a must listen!

32 Thoughts (Nov 5): Rumour Recap... • Teams are under the impression right now that Nikita Kucherov won't sign anywhere until July 1st. • Elliotte heard last weekend that Dylan Larkin was considering changing his list but that hasn't happened yet.

DFO Insiders (Nov 4): @HockeyAgent1 with some updates on his clients… • He says they are working with Washington to look for a new home for Ivan miroshnichenko. There’s no deadline, they are just looking for the right opportunity • Pavel Mintyukov’s priority was to stay in Anaheim. • Evander Kane is close to signing in Russia.

DFO Insider (Nov 4): Notes on Nikita Kucherov… • Pagnotta doesn’t see a scenario where Tampa moves Kucherov unless the wheels completely fall off this season. • Jeff Marek adds that the way Tampa worded the press release, saying no intention of trading him, leaves the door open in case things change later in the season. • He thinks they’d be happy to keep him then let him go in the offseason like they did with Stamkos.

The Fan Hockey Show (Nov 4): Elliotte thinks that if Kucherov gets traded, he is going to look for the best fit and how he would fit on the powerplay.
