The Sharks haven’t talked about sitting anyone

Corey Masisak: San Jose Sharks coach David Quinn said that he hadn’t spoken to GM Mike Grier about sitting players down for ‘trade-related reasons.’

Quinn added that both Timo Meier and Erik Karlsson are under contract next season and they don’t have to trade them at the deadline.

Could the Flames consider trading MacKenzie Weegar? The Senators are interested

David Pagnotta of the Fourth Period: Things have not gone as planned for the Calgary Flames this season. Many key players are underperforming, and there has been some talk of coach Darryl Sutter‘s effectiveness. GM Brad Treliving is working the phones.

A source confirmed that the Flames have spoken with the Vancouver Canucks about Brock Boeser who has two years left at $6.65 million.

Don’t get the sense that the Flames are in on Jakob Chychrun. The Flames have denied that they’ve had recent talks with the St. Louis Blues about defenseman Colton Parayko (seven years left at $6.5 million).

The Flames have denied it, but believes they considered trading defenseman MacKenzie Weegar. Multiple league sources haven’t heard his name out there. Sources say the Ottawa Senators showed interest in Weegar.

NHL Rumors: Edmonton Oilers, Vancouver Canucks, Boston Bruins, and the Calgary Flames

Weeger is from around Ottawa and his full no-trade clause doesn’t kick in until July 1st, as does his eight-year, $50 million contract, The Senators are okay with that if they can move out Nikita Zaitsev‘s $4.5 million.

Reported that Senators GM Pierre Dorion would attach a second-round pick to take Zaitsev’s contract. Potential landing spots include Anaheim Ducks, Arizona Coyotes and San Jose Sharks, but they’d need to move a defenseman first.
