NHL Rumors: Simmonds, Bruins, Islanders, Stars, Ducks, Oilers and Penguins

Wayne Simmonds
On Wayne Simmonds

Pierre LeBrun: Reminder that Wayne Simmonds has a 12-team no-trade list “I’m not sure it will be a huge issue, although some teams from the No list have showed interest. So we’ll see how that plays out.”

On the Bruins and Islanders

Darren Dreger: Watch the Boston Bruins and New York Islanders today. The Islanders could be a sleeper.

The Bruins are in on Mark Stone, Wayne Simmonds and Tyler Toffoli.

Stars plan may have changed with Zuccarello injury

Pierre LeBrun: Mats Zuccarello‘s injury has put the Stars back working the phones looking at several options. They may not be done now.

Sean Shapiro: The Stars could be back being a player now.

Quick rumor hits

David Pagnotta: Quick hits from late last night.

– 4-5 teams remain in mix for ANA Henrique
– LA, TOR have a few things cooking, but just lead to 1 or none
– NYI, BOS pushing for top6 F, circled back on Stone (gut says too pricey)
– NYR hasn’t tabled Hayes offer

Ducks willing to move another defenseman

Darren Dreger: The Anaheim Ducks will be looking to trade pending UFA Michael Del Zotto.

Two Oilers defenseman on the block

Ryan Rishaug: The Edmonton Oilers may be looking to move right-handed defensemen Alex Petrovic and Matt Benning. Petrovic is a pending free agent and Benning has another year left at $1.9 million.

Penguins don’t have a lot of cap space and assets

Dan Kingerski of Pittsburgh Hockey Now: The Pittsburgh Penguins don’t have a lot of salary cap space and they are running low on tradeable assets.

It’s looking like today could be a quiet day for the Penguins and their fans.

The Pens don’t have their second or third round draft picks, so technically they couldn’t have even been in on Gustav Nyquist, Ryan Dzingel and Ben Lovejoy at the prices they went for.

The Penguins could use some blueline help if they can somehow manage to find a willing partner.
