Think they're more an offseason team to watch, given they still have that glut of defensemen.
Zac
6:48
What metro team makes the most moves (playoff team)
Gavin Lee
6:48
Between now and the deadline? I'll say the Blue Jackets.
Non playoff, probably the Rangers.
Ron Duguay
6:49
Hey, Gavin.  Aside from the Rangers 3 UFA that are always discussed, any chance that they deal a player with term left like Vesey or Fast, or <fingers crossed> one of the other veteran defensemen?  Thanks.
Gavin Lee
6:49
Yes, I've thought all season that Vesey is a good candidate for trade. He never seems to get mentioned as you note.
6:50
Don't think Staal or Smith, who you are probably referring to, get moved.

There are normally around 40 trades in the last week, so far this week only 3.  Are there going to be 37 trades in 3 days?
Gavin Lee
6:50
Very possibly. Lots of minor moves will go down this weekend and on Monday to bump that number.
Jon
6:51
Duchene for Tolvanen and a 2019 1st?
Gavin Lee
6:52
You would imagine that if Nashville lands one of the big names, Tolvanen will have to be involved.
Pawtucket
6:52
Who will the first goalie traded? And to whom?
Gavin Lee
6:52
First goalie traded when? We've already seen several move.
6:53
There's a chance that Howard, Miller, Anderson could all go as veteran backups
I'd watch for Vegas in the goalie market.
Zac
6:53
Are you surprised DSP made it through waivers?
Gavin Lee
6:54
Not really. He hasn't been very good.
Al
6:54
Silfverberg deal, good/bad? Do the ducks make any impactful deadline deals now?
Gavin Lee
6:54
I really don't understand it, to be perfectly honest.
6:55
I like Silfverberg as a player, but there's no reason that team needed to lock him in.
ATX King
6:55
Can the Kings land another 1st?
Gavin Lee
6:56
Yes. Toffoli or Martinez could land it from the right team. It would probably be late though.
Ron Duguay
6:56
Have the Senators played the market horribly by waiting this late to deal their stars, or do they have deals lined up in case Stone and Dzingel do not re-sign?
Gavin Lee
6:56
There never seems to be a downside to waiting.
6:57
Deadline deals are still big, and if they were actually trying to re-sign them they needed the time.
Ray
6:57
As a Houston sports fan kind of hoping to land a team at some point...what do you think the odds are of a team ever relocating here? And what potential teams, do you think?
Gavin Lee
6:58
I would think it's up there among the top contenders for any relocation.
That said, the NHL fights long and hard before allowing that to happen
6:59
The usual suspects--Ottawa, Florida come to mind--would be the most likely right now, but I'd still say it's unlikely overall.
Back to back
6:59
Are the pens done or does gmjr have another deal in the works
Gavin Lee
6:59
He certainly doesn't sound like he's pushing for one.
7:00
But don't ever trust Jim Rutherford around trade season.
Paul
7:00
If the B's went big....Stone or Panarin.  Could they do it without including Debrusk or McAvoy?
Gavin Lee
7:00
There's definitely a way they could do it, yes.
But it would cost several assets.
7:01
After already using Donato and spending so heavily last season, I still don't think they're going to do it.
Jim
7:01
What would it take for the bruins to add Dzingel?
Gavin Lee
7:01
This however could be a more reasonable add.
I'm not convinced that Dzingel would cost a first rounder, so something like a second and mid-tier prospect isn't out of the question.

Heard Hoffman is available, is his value bad after the Ottawa tweets issue last year
