Some late evening chatter:
- Belief Sabres inquired about Knies
- Penguins, Blackhawks, Mammoth among other teams interested in Robertson
- Teams calling Flames on Frost, Whitecloud
- Oilers have discussed Nurse talks, and goalie search today
- Some teams curious about DeBrincat
As I’ve reported, #Leafs are seeking another Top 10 pick in 2026 #NHLDraft.
Sources say Toronto and Dallas had talks about Stars potentially flipping No. 7 overall from #SeaKraken in a deal for Matthew Knies to help replace Jason Robertson.
All part of Thursday’s shrapnel.
The Flames are trying to move Connor Zary. 24 year old forward has another year left on his contract at $3.775 mil. Sounds like Calgary is asking for a 2nd round pick in return.
If Drury was balls to the wall here - he’d find a way to get Knies and Robertson. Changes the team instantly. He won’t. But that’s what a winning GM / team would do here. #LGR
