Flyers Defensemen May Be Out The Door Before We Know It
The Flames, Kings, and Golden Knights are all ahead of the Edmonton Oilers in the standings, which puts them in a difficult position in the tough Pacific Division and just outside of a playoff spot.
The Blackhawks, on the other hand, are in their first year of a multi-year rebuild and aren't bothered by their position at the bottom of the NHL standings.
The two teams could team up in a trade to fulfill each other's needs, but the Philadelphia Flyers, who may move a�defenseman who has been healthy scratched as of late, may also be included. The Oilers would also welcome a draft pick or two, and the Blackhawks would be happy to offload a�veteran defensemen like Jake McCabe or Connor Murphy so that their younger players can play more often.
According to Elliotte Friedman's most recent report, Jake McCabe of the Chicago Blackhawks and Justin Braun of the Philadelphia Flyers are the front-runners for the Oilers' blueline. McCabe is on a very favourable contract at under $4 million year, which the Oilers would love to have. Justin Braun also holds a cheap one-million dollar annual salary and is a reliant right-handed shot defensemen.
