NHL Rumour Report: Top 10 Trade Deadline Targets & Rumoured Landing Spots


The top ten big names generating plenty of rumour buzz as we inch towards the NHL trade deadline.




10. Ben Chiarot, MTL (D)
All but guaranteed to be on the move, Chiarot has generated plenty of interest from teams looking for a physical blueliner.
Rumoured landing spots: FLA, BOS, NYR, STL, TOR, LA, CAR, CGY +

9. Mark Giordano, SEA (D)
With the Kraken looking for futures this deadline, Giordano has one foot out the door. The veteran blueliner is looking for his first Cup.
Rumoured landing spots: CGY + 




8. Hampus Lindholm, ANH (D)
Anaheim wants to resign him, but if that doesn't happen soon, he'll be a top trade target for many teams.
Rumoured landing spots: EDM, TOR +

7. Brock Boeser, VAN (F)
No stranger to the rumour mill, Boeser is generating plenty of buzz this deadline. Will this be the year he finally moves?
Rumoured landing spots: NJ +




6. Tomas Hertl, SJ (F)
Rumblings suggest Hertl is eager to test free agency this summer, which means he's probably getting dealt if an extension can't be hammered out quickly here.
Rumoured landing spots: Unknown

5. Marc-Andre Fleury, CHI (G)
Fleury will ultimately make this call, but it still feels more likely than not he's dealt. He's only got a few more cracks at another Cup. 
Rumoured landing spots: WAS, COL, VGK, EDM, TOR, BOS +




4. John Klingberg, DAL (D)
Klingberg wants out, but will the Stars grant his wish? It seemed like a foregone conclusion last month, but Klingberg could end up staying in Dallas for the stretch drive.
Rumoured landing spots: FLA, CAR, TOR, NYR +

3. JT Miller, VAN (F)
Does Vancouver want to move him? It depends who you ask. A lot of teams are calling anyways. 
Rumoured landing spots: MIN, TOR, COL, NYR +

2. Jakob Chychrun, AZ (D)
The biggest name on the blueline this deadline, Chychrun will be a hot commodity. Although many are puzzled why he's on the market, the Coyotes seem intent on moving him.
Rumoured landing spots: FLA, VAN, BOS, NYR, LA, TOR +

1. Claude Giroux, PHI (F)
It's clear that the longtime captain is on the trade block, but only preliminary trade discussions have taken place so far. The Avalanche have long been rumoured as a frontrunner, and the Panthers remain a strong contender as well.
Rumoured landing spots: COL, MIN, STL, FLA, CAR, TOR, CGY, TB, NYR +
