More trade candidates
Rory Boylen of Sportsnet: Looking at some players who could be traded this offseason.
Alex DeBrincat – Chicago Blackhawks – A year left on his contract and is two years away from being a UFA.
J.T. Miller – Vancouver Canucks – If they can’t extend at a reasonable price they could move him. Could be a draft day trade.
Conor Garland – Vancouver Canucks – If they don’t trade Brock Boeser (article written before he re-signed) or J.T. Miller, he’s their next best trade asset. Four years left at $4.95 million. Tanner Pearson is another trade candidate.
John Gibson – Anaheim Ducks – Has five years left at $6.4 million and a 10-team no-trade list.
Mackenzie Blackwood – New Jersey Devils – The Devils are looking for an upgrade in net.

Martin Necas – Carolina Hurricanes – A pending RFA.
Jakob Chychrun – Arizona Coyotes – Three years left at $4.6 million and will be plenty of interest. Pending RFA Lawson Crouse is another trade candidate.
Tyson Barrie – Edmonton Oilers – They could use some cap space and open up a roster spot for some younger players.
Pavel Zacha – New Jersey Devils – Pending RFA and is their third-line center.
Jeff Petry – Montreal Canadiens – Three years left at $6.25 million and a 15-team no-trade clause.
