NHL Rumour Report: Trade Deadline Rumours (UPDATED)


Follow along for the latest NHL trade deadline rumour updates!


Sunday 11:35 PM ET: Habs forward Artturi Lehkonen generating a lot of trade buzz today, but asking price is very high - includes a 1st round pick. The Kings and Rangers are possibilities.

Sunday 11:25 PM ET: Viktor Olofsson trade sounding unlikely before tomorrow, but the Sabres are open to offers. Could be an offseason deal instead.

Sunday 11:05 PM ET: Still keeping a close eye on Tyler Bertuzzi. Still lots of smoke that 'something is up' with Bertuzzi and the Red Wings. But GM Steve Yzerman is notoriously good at keeping trade rumblings from getting out.

Sunday 11:00 PM ET: The big wildcard tomorrow is Jakob Chychrun. The Coyotes are still listening, but this could spill over into the offseason if they don't get blown away by an offer. Kings, Blue Jackets, Blues and Hurricanes could figure heavily into things tomorrow.

Sunday 10:25 PM ET: Add Dallas to the Nick Leddy mix. Pittsburgh is also rumoured.

Sunday 10:20 PM ET: With the Jets looking like sellers, there's a bit of buzz around pending UFA center Paul Stastny. Boston could be a fit.

- Sunday 10:00 PM ET: The Kraken aren't done after dealing Mark Giordano. Joonas Donskoi, Jeremy Lauzon and Carson Soucy all likely to move.


- Sunday 9:10 PM ET: Lots of buzz around the Blue Jackets. Fielding offers on Max Domi and Joonas Korpisalo. As a darkhorse trade candidate, Vladislav Gavrikov is generating some interest, but Columbus is only doing that for a big haul similar to the return for Ben Chiarot.

- Sunday 7:00 PM ET: The Bruins are trying to trade Jake DeBrusk. Although many wondered if Boston would hold onto him for a playoff run, it sounds like they are trying to get something done before the deadline. No guarantees, but with the forward market a little thin Boston is looking to capitalize.

- Sunday 6:10 PM ET: Still no deal between Nick Paul and the Sens, and there' a pretty good chance that the Sens starting shopping him soon. The Rangers, Oilers, Bruins, and Avalanche are among the interested teams.

- Sunday 6:05 PM ET: The Mark Giordano trade to Toronto is now complete. Word around the league is that this was very much a family decision; Giordano is from the area. And if it works out in Toronto, there's mutual interest in a short term extension.

- Sunday 4:15 PM ET: The Fleury situation is fairly fluid, but right now it doesn't feel like he's getting traded. Minnesota and Washington are waiting to hear if Fleury is willing to join either teas - but it's not looking likely. A team like Pittsburgh or Vegas could probably convince him to move, but neither of those scenarios seem likely at this point.

- Sunday 3:50 PM ET: Max Domi trade traction is picking up. Rangers, Capitals, Avalanche, Bruins in contention.

- Sunday 2:00 PM ET: The Coyotes are expected to trade Johan Larsson before the deadline.

Sunday 1:40 PM ET: Andy Greene and Cal Clutterbuck both sitting tonight for the Isles, and both likely traded before the deadline.

- Sunday 1:30 PM ET: James Reimer trade buzz is picking up steam. The veteran Sharks netminder has another year left on his deal. The Leafs had interest, but I don't think they're the frontrunner/most interested team. Capitals, Golden Knights, Wild and Devils among teams shopping for goalies.

- Sunday 1:20 PM ET:  Leafs defenseman Travis Dermott is all but guaranteed to move before the deadline. The Canucks are one of the rumoured landing spots. Toronto has kicked tires on Tyler Motte, Luke Schenn and Jaroslav Halak. Is there a fit?

- Sunday 1:05 PM ET: The Tyler Bertuzzi rumblings continue to swirl. Teams called on him last trade deadline as well. Bertuzzi himself has denied wanting out. Teams, such as the Penguins, are calling anyways.
