Vancouver Canucks defenseman Carson Soucy is available
Rick Dhaliwal: Vancouver Canucks defenseman Carson Soucy has a full no-trade clause this season and a 12-team no-trade clause next season.
Soucy has been pushed down the depth chart after the Canucks acquired Marcus Pettersson. Defenseman Elias Pettersson has also played well on the left side.
Pierre LeBrun: Canucks defenseman Carson Soucy is available, but get the sense that he still wants to try and make it work with the Canucks.
His agent and the Canucks have talked about working together about a potential trade if that’s the route they want to go down leading up to the March 7th trade deadline.

The ‘Hall of Fame’ Division – Erik Karlsson and Kris Letang.
- Nobody will likely be interested in Karlsson’s contract but the Penguins should be willing to talk. Don’t think Letang will be traded or that he’d be willing to waive his NMC, but he might get some interest.
