Alexandre Carrier likely on the move

Michael Gallagher: As of yesterday is sounded like the Nashville Predators and defenseman Alexandre Carrier were far apart on a contract extension. Think that the Predators will trade Carrier today.

Michael Gallagher: There is still a good chance that the Predators keep Carrier for the rest of the season.

“However, I’m just not buying the whole “a pick doesn’t help them in the short term” excuse for not trading him There’s no guarantee he re-signs in the offseason, so why risk losing him for nothing? If NSH makes the playoffs, Spencer Stastney is more than capable of filling his spot”

Renaud Lavoie: The Predators could keep Carrier past the deadline.

Getting a pick won’t help the @PredsNHL in the short term and with the team success right now, it’s probable that he won’t be move. No final decision yet but we’ll see.”

Plenty of interest in Alexander Barabanov

Sheng Peng: As of yesterday there was plenty of interest in San Jose Sharks pending UFA forward Alexander Barabanov.
