The Kraken tried to trade for Kevin Fiala

TSN: Chris Johnston said that the Seattle Kraken were also trying to acquire Kevin Fiala from the Minnesota Wild and were in until the end. The Kraken have some cap space and are looking to make some moves.

“It’s not a problem for them and I think they’re going to commit some of it to getting a high-end forward or someone who can add to their scoring depth. When you look at the names on the free-agent list, yeah, they didn’t get Fiala, but there’s a few other appealing players. I think they’ll step forward with big offers should they come free on July 13th.”

Blackhawks looking for three pieces for Alex DeBrincat

TSN: Pierre LeBrun said that Chicago Blackhawks are listening to trade offers on Alex DeBrincat for a while now. The Blackhawks are looking for three assets for DeBrincat.

“Now, there is a pressure point here in terms of next Thursday’s first round. The Blackhawks would expect a first-round pick to likely be part of any package involving Alex DeBrincat. So, things could be coming to a head over the next seven days. Keep that in mind because the Kings were talking to Chicago about DeBrincat before turning towards Kevin Fiala and paying a little less for him.”
