NHL Rumors: Some Teams Could Still be Looking to Make Some Moves

The dog days of summer are here, but there five teams that could still be looking to make a move or two this offseason.

There are a few teams that might still be looking to make moves this offseason

Adam Proteau of The Hockey News: We’ve hit the month of August, and things around the NHL have slowed down. There are some teams that could still be looking to take care of some business.

Calgary Flames – There is still speculation as to what the Flames will do with defenseman Rasmus Andersson. The Flames want to compete, but trading Andersson would set them back. They can’t compete with the top team, so collecting future assets may be not be a bad thing.

Edmonton Oilers – Will the Oilers go another year with Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard? There is also the Connor McDavid extension stuff. The Oilers have just over $200,000 in cap space, and the top UFA goalies are Alexandar Georgiev, Ilya Samsonov, and James Reimer. They may have to wait until the trade deadline.

Minnesota Wild – It’s speculated that RFA forward Marco Rossi doesn’t fit into the Wild’s long-term plans. They could do a one- or two-year deal and see if that changes anything.

NHL Rumors: The Wild and Kaprizov to Talk this Month, and Destinations for Jack Roslovic

Montreal Canadiens – The Canadiens can put Carey Price and his $10.5 million cap on the LTIR and can have $4.57 million in projected cap space to play with. They want to make the playoffs this year, so they’ll likely use that cap space sometime between now and the trade deadline.

Toronto Maple Leafs – (after the re-signing of Nick Roberston the Leafs now have just over $1 million on projected cap space). It’s hard to see where Robertson fits in the Leafs roster. They may look to trade him. There’s still some room to possibly bring someone in on PTO, like they did last year with Max Pacioretty.

Nick Robertson’s future with the Toronto Maple Leafs is still in question

Chris Johnston of The Athletic: So the Toronto Maple Leafs settled before salary arbitration with Nick Robertson on a one-year deal at $1.825 million. Despite the signing, his future with the Maple Leafs is still in question.

Robertson asked for a trade last summer, and his playing time was cut to just three of 13 games in the playoffs. The Leafs could be looking to move salary out, and he could be a piece that joins David Kampf and Calle Jarnkrok.

NHL Rumors: Carter Hart and Erik Karlsson

The 23-year-old does still have an offensive upside if he can gain the coaches’ trust. He needs to play better on the other side of the puck and make better puck decisions.
