Flyers after acquiring two D have gotten calls from a few teams on LHD Shayne Gostisbehere. I think they would rather keep him but are listening. I believe Montreal is among those teams who have inquired.

Joonas Donskoi’s camp have informed the Sharks they’re going to talk to other teams once the UFA speaking period opens Sunday while not closing the door on SJ. But also feels like might be time for a fresh start for him.

Not getting caught up in semantics of “shopped” vs. “listening” — been there, done that, circa June, 2016 — but P.K. Subban’s name is out there floating around in the trade-sphere. NSH believed to be looking to clear cap space for either UFA shopping (Duchene?) or Josi extension.

Still possible that Tampa moves Ryan Callahan’s contract this summer. Less pressure to do so now because he can go on LTI in the fall. But it’s not ideal because that would likely mean Bolts performance bonuses earned in 19-20 (Sergachev, Cirelli, Joseph, etc) carry over to 20-21

Panthers still trying to move James Reimer. Has two more years left on his contract at a 3.4 cap hit / 3.1 in real cash. If there’s no takers, potential buyout candidate before June 30 buyout window closes

TRADE BAIT: The latest on Tyson Barrie, as the #Avs continue to listen to offers on the 59-point defenceman.

Barrie would be a heck of a way for the #Canucks to make a splash at the #NHLDraft:

Hearing that Carolina is shopping Justin Faulk today after this morning's meeting with the player's camp did not go particularly great regarding a possible extension. He's got one year left on his deal at a $4.83 M cap hit but $6 million in real cash

It sounds like Kasperi Kapanen and the #leafs are getting closer on an extension.

TRADE: The Lightning have traded forward J.T. Miller to Vancouver for a conditional first-round pick in 2020, a third-round selection in 2019 and goaltender Marek Mazanec. Should the Canucks not make the playoffs in 2019-20, the first-round selection will move to the 2021 draft.

Told that there won’t be any deal between Columbus and Matt Duchene before the UFA speaking period opens Sunday. Fair to say Nashville is the front runner.

David Poile says pending UFA Wayne Simmonds won’t be coming back to Nashville. Headed to market. Still hopes to try and find a place for pending UFA Brian Boyle.

8 years, 5.9m AAV. Glad to have him back. Not thrilled at the price.

Veteran Mike Smith has conducted his phone interviews with all the participants in this year’s game of goalie musical chairs. Door isn’t completely closed on returning to #Flames, but I think #Canes are a team to watch for Smith.
