Six players who could be moved and where they could land
Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic: A look at six players who could be traded at the deadline and which playoff team could they be a good fit for.
Jakob Chychrun – Los Angeles Kings – The sides have talked on and off. It makes so much sense for the Kings.
Ryan O’Reilly – Toronto Maple Leafs – The Leafs aren’t big on trading first-round picks for rentals but this is the year to do it. He could play wing if needed.
Luke Schenn – Boston Bruins – The Bruins could look at adding some right-handed depth on their blue line, and have already talked to the Canucks about him,
John Klingberg – Seattle Kraken – The Kraken have the picks to move and he might be worth taking a flier on. The Ducks may want a first but may not get it.
Sean Monahan – Colorado Avalanche – As may go cheaper with Monahan than Bo Horvat given where they sit in the standings.
Patrick Kane – New York Rangers – The Rangers have two first-round picks. Will Kane want to play in New York with Artemi Panarin.
