Three teams very excited by Shane Pinto
Jimmy Murphy: Have heard that the Boston Bruins, Montreal Canadiens, and Recent York Islanders are ‘very interested’ in Ottawa Senators forward Shane Pinto. Those teams have shown interest in Pinto prior to now as well.
Bruce Garrioch: The Senators qualified Shane Pinto. Hearing that Pinto’s camp could also be in search of a suggestion sheet from someone.
Compensation for a $4.58 to $6.7 million AAV deal could be a first- and a third-round pick.
Bruce Garrioch: The Senators would match that.
Jacob Trouba now has a 15-team no-trade clause. Will he accept a trade to Detroit?
Darren Dreger: Recent York Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba now has a 15-team no-trade list as his no-movement clause is up. Not much change apart from that.
Larry Brooks of the NY Post: Understandably, Trouba’s feeling have been somewhat hurt after with the best way things were played out over the past week. It wouldn’t really make sense to attempt to make this tougher than it needs to be.
He carries an $8 million cap hit for 2 more years and is a projected third-pairing defenseman.
If he doesn’t approve a trade to the Detroit Red Wings, he might be sent someplace else or possibly even placed on waivers. It appears the choice has been made by the Rangers to maneuver on Trouba.
Sam Carrick off to Recent York
Andy Strickland: The Recent York Rangers might be signing forward Sam Carrick.
Kyle Hall: Three years at $1 million per season.
Sam Steel remaining in Dallas
Frank Seravalli: Sam Steel didn’t receive a qualifying offer from the Dallas Stars but heard they’re working on a one-year deal at $1.2 million.
The Calgary Flames are in search of fowards
David Pagnotta: The Calgary Flames are forwards and Anthony Mantha might be one player they’re targeting.
