It would take a big offer for the Calgary Flames to move Zach Whitecloud
Anthony Di Marco: Calgary Flames defenseman Zach Whitecloud is getting some interest, but it would be hard for the Flames to move him. They may have a specific price point though, in which they would move him.
The Ottawa Senators have been linked to Whitecloud, as they’re in the market for a right-handed defenseman.
Mason Marchment will have a market waiting to sign him if he gets to free agency
Pierre LeBrun: If Columbus Blue Jackets forward Mason Marchment hits free agency, there will be a robust market for the winger. Marchment and the Blue Jackets are keeping in touch, and the Blue Jackets could make a last-minute offer to keep him.

The door isn’t shut, but it’s looking like A.J. Greer is going to free agency
Pierre LeBrun: The door has been left open if the Florida Panthers are able to move out some salary, but it’s looking like forward A.J. Greer is going to be heading to free agency. He’s coming off a career-high 17 goals.
The Nashville Predators need to subtract before they can add
Daily Faceoff: Jeff Marek on the Nashville Predators, and how they should be looking to move out some players and rebuild.
“I think that when you go into an interview, you have to lay out what your plan for the team will be. And I think we’re all sort of of the mind that Nashville is taking this thing as far as it’s going to go.
And maybe, maybe, if everything breaks right and you’re healthy, you might be involved in a playoff race, and you might even squeeze, you know, be competitive for one round.
But really, you don’t really see a huge bright future right now for the Nashville Predators. I don’t think they want to double down on that.
NHL Rumors: Rielly, Tuch, Werenski, Drysdale, Nurse, DeBrusk, Pettersson, and Boeser
And I think this is probably one of the most exciting things here for Chris McFarland, as he takes his job over, is he can recreate it. And the first thing that you need to do is you need to subtract before you can start to add.
So I’m really wondering, how aggressive Nashville is right out of the gate in starting to rebuild this team? We’ll know soon. We’ll know soon.
