NHL Rumour Report: Calm before the trade deadline storm: latest rumours


Market action is already picking up, but there's a lot more percolating beneath the surface.

- Quick rumblings blog as we kick off what shapes up to be a crazy weekend in the NHL rumour mill.

  
- Hampus Lindholm: Very likely traded although not 100%. Boston, St. Louis, Carolina, LA, Toronto, Edmonton kicking tires.

- Marc-Andre Fleury: Sounds quiet. I don't know if he's moving. Washington and Toronto with lukewarm interest. Thomas Greiss may be one of the only big name goalies moved by Monday.
 
- Andrew Copp: Likely moving even though the Jets are trying to sneak into a wildcard spot. Boston and Colorado among the contenders.
 
- Alex Radulov: Rangers kicking tires. He's had a horrible year, could use a fresh start.

- Mark Giordano: Toronto, Boston and St. Louis in contention. Toronto believed to be a frontrunner if the price comes down.
 
- Conor Garland: 50/50 he's traded. Kings, Penguins, Bruins all frontrunners.

- Jordan Binnington: A seemingly crazy trade rumour surfaced the other day suggesting he was being shopped. More rumours today corroborating this. I don't know if he's moved by Monday, but the Blues want to move out money to do something huge.

- A lot of chatter around what the Red Wings might do on Monday. Hard to pin down so far, but there's a sense that they're up to something big.

- Vegas unsure on Lehner injury timetable and expected to add some kind of goaltending before the deadline, but it's not expected to be Fleury.

- So much trade rumour buzz out there that it's hard to keep up. Much more to come over the weekend.
