On Vincent Trocheck and the way aggressive the Recent York Rangers will likely be<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Vince Z. Mercogliano<\/strong><\/a>: Recent York Rangers GM Chris Drury<\/a> on where they’re by way of possibly trading forward Vincent Trocheck<\/a> and the way aggressive they might be this offseason, exploring more trade opportunities.<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, I feel when you take a look at it, they\u2019re form of two different cycles within the season, right? The trade deadline, there\u2019s limited buyers, there\u2019s limited cap space. It\u2019s not the offseason. The rosters aren\u2019t being reshuffled or retooled across the league. So going into the offseason, as I said, we\u2019re going to review and try every thing inside the roster, inside the organization. We\u2019re at all times going to attempt to make the very best moves we will for the short-term and long-term health of the organization.\u201d<\/p>\n

Has Brady Tkachuk Played his Last Game with the Ottawa Senators?<\/a><\/p>\n

The Maple Leafs may have a call to make with Matias Maccelli<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Luke Fox of Sportsnet<\/strong><\/a>: Toronto Maple Leafs forward Matias Maccelli<\/a> is a pending RFA, and the following GM will need to come to a decision whether to send the 25-year-old a $4.11 million qualifying offer or else he could turn into a UFA. He wants \u201cto remain in Toronto.\u201d<\/p>\n

He put up 14 goals and 25 assists in 70 games, mostly within the top-six. He\u2019s on the smallish side, together with Max Domi<\/a> and Nick Robertson, is inconsistent and struggles defensively. Maccelli is arbitration eligible, together with Robertson, Jacob Quillan<\/a>, and Ryan Tverberg<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Canucks haven\u2019t asked to talk to Lawrence Gillman yet<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rick Dhaliwal<\/strong><\/a>: As of Friday morning, the Vancouver Canucks hadn\u2019t asked the Columbus Blue Jackets about Lawrence Gillman.<\/p>\n

The Chicago Blackhawks watched Caleb Malhotra so much, and a scenario that would see the Canucks again a Malhotra but lose one<\/strong><\/h2>\n

NHL Rumour Report<\/strong><\/a>: Jeff Marek on the Sekeres & Price show last week on the Chicago Blackhawks and the 2026 NHL Draft: \u201cI feel Chicago has had lots of eyeballs on Caleb Malhotra\u2026all season long.\u201d<\/p>\n

Francesco Aquilini Hopes to call a Vancouver Canucks GM by the Draft Lottery?<\/a><\/p>\n

Taj<\/strong><\/a>: \u201cBased on reporting from Drancer and now Mason\u2019s tweet.<\/p>\n

If Canucks get the third pick, they probably won\u2019t hire Manny due to Caleb. So in the event that they lose the two lotteries they’d also lose Malhotra.<\/p>\n

Most Canucks thing ever.\u201d<\/p>\n
