A centerman the Oilers might be considering

“Well, simply some things to watch on as we get to within 6 weeks of the trade due date Ron. I think Edmonton is among the groups, and I believe there’s more than one, that has interest in Arizona center Nick Bjugstad.
It’s a simple agreement for a great deal of groups to manage, $900K. He’s got 11 objectives this year, 10 are even strength, one is short-handed.
And what someone else mentioned to me is, the NHL lead this year in shootout objectives is 4, he’s got 3, and those are points you require to enter the playoffs.
I believe the Oilers are among the groups thinking about Bjugstad.
What will the Kraken choose to do with Carson Soucy?
Sportsnet: Jeff Marek on 32 Thoughts on Seattle Kraken defenseman Carson Soucy.

“And you understand Elliotte, a number of other names to watch on prior to the NHL trade due date of March 3rd. We go to Seattle and take a look at Carson Soucy. Bottom-pairing defenseman, left-hand shot. An extremely sensible cap hit of $2.7 million. His agreement ends at the end of this season. He’s a pending unlimited complimentary representative.
So far there’s been no conversation in between Jerry Johansson, his representative, or Ron Francis basic supervisor of the Seattle Kraken.
And that’s the choice. Do they let him possibly stroll for absolutely nothing or do they keep him for a prolonged playoff run? We’ll see what occurs there.
(Marek most likely indicated to state to they keep him for their playoff run and possibly lose him for absolutely nothing or do they get a property for him at the due date)
Teams have an interest in Anton Khudobin, however his cap hit is high
Sportsnet: Jeff Marek on 32 Thoughts on Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin.

“Anton Khudobin. Teams that are searching for some goaltending depth for the playoffs. Some groups are interested. We can all remember him taking Dallas to the Final in the bubble naturally.
Some groups have actually called. He’s playing AHL Texas today, the farm group for the Dallas Stars. Had a truly great season. He’s healthy. We’re questioning perhaps he might be on the relocation also.
$3.75 million is the agreement. That may be a sticking point here Ron, however all things can get rubbed here with the house group.
