The Fan Hockey Show (Oct 28): Elliotte on goalies...
• He thinks Buffalo is less likely to trade Luukkonen with Lyon's injury.
• When asked who the next goalie to be traded would be, Elliotte says Vejmekla is interesting and Binnington is absolutely on the list.
• He says he thinks the Rangers took a look at Ville Husso
• Doesn't think Seattle is crazy about trading Grubauer.
• Toronto is currently tight to the "projected offseason cap" so they are going to have challenges acquiring anyone that is signed passed this season.
• There are a lot of teams checking in on Simon Edvinsson but Detroit still wants to sign him. Pierre LeBrun thinks San Jose is an intriguing fit and Darren Dreger mentions Nashville.
• Nashville is looking to get younger and add skill, Nic Hague and Brady Skjei's names are currently out there.
• Seattle is looking to add scoring, preferably a top line winger. Shane Wright's name is still out there.
INSIDER TRADING…
- Cap constraints could challenge Leafs
- Sharks a possible fit for Edvinsson?
- Predators, Kraken looking to add

- Pending UFA Lehkonen off to a scorching start

Pretty interesting to hear the Red Wings are scouting Montreal again with all the “will Larkin add Montreal to his trade list” talk out there.

Here is Dylan Larkin’s 10 team trade list.
A potential trade to Minnesota is all the rage right now, but where do you think he actually gets traded to?

Chris Johnston Show (Oct 26): CJ says New Jersey was able to get Hellebuyck because they had the player (Mercer), the goalie (Daws) and the futures.
He says Carolina wasn’t offering a player better than Dawson Mercer.
32 Thoughts (Oct 26): Some notes on the Hellebuyck trade...
• On the timing, Elliotte was told the situation had a chance to get bad, especially if both sides started talking to the media, and nobody wanted that.
• He says that was as much a factor as anything in why the trade happened when it did.
• Florida's trade offer in June was different than what Winnipeg wanted now because to their current goaltending situation. The Jets needed a goalie in return at that time. For a time this was Hellebuyck's #1 choice.
• Buffalo trade talks stalled over Winnipeg not wanting to flip their 8th overall pick for Buffalo's 4th overall pick. He says he's personally never heard Ryan McLeod's name involved.
• Utah was involved at one point but Elliotte doesn't know what they offered but knows Vejmelka wouldn't go to Winnipeg. He says this rumour was very interesting.
• Carolina wasn't trading Stankoven, Jarvis or Blake. They were very aggressive on trying to acquire a player from another team to flip to Winnipeg.

32 Thoughts (Oct 26): Ivan Miroshnichenko has been given permission to talk to other teams. Elliotte says there has been quite a bit of interest in him and Washington isn't going to put him on waivers because they know he will get claimed.

I’m seeing everything from New Jersey robbed Winnipeg in the Hellebuyck trade to how could Winnipeg have done better.
I guess that means it was a good trade for both sides? 🤷🏻♂️

At press conference going on right now, #NJDevils GM Sunny Mehta said the Hellebuyck talks really heated up the last couple days. Sounded like they were on the periphery for a while paying attention and then decided to move on it.
