Eklund: Brayden Point could be moved...

C'mon now

i just don't see that happening.

Finally a rumor that makes sense. Hearing hes going to Arizona for OEL and a first. Arizona is in "win now" mode and need their #1 center.

Palat 5.3
Gourde 5.1
Johnson 5
Killorn 4.5

5.5 cap space. Something needs to go or he's not signing and who can blame him

Unless Larkin is coming back a trade to Detroit isn't happening.

Heard Point to buffalo for Risto, Mittlestad.

I’ve been known to lie, but doing what I can to get clicks

Is that before or after AZ trades for Patrick Kane?

Slow day? Eeeek from a source? OK you mean Reddit? Give it up, clicks for clicks. Throw enough at the wall and voila. EK finally has a scoop. Wonder why with all your connections no nibbles for contributing to Sportsnet, TSN or Athletic? Wonder why? Because Lebrun et al have the goods on your scammy sources.

Yeah now do the cap space with Callahan on LTIR.

Point isn’t going anywhere.

He turned down discussions with MTL because he wants to stay in Tampa.

I don't think you're serious, nonetheless I would make that trade in a heartbeat...but I don't think Buffalo has the cap space.

It's Point to Oilers for Nugent Hopkins and Puljjarvvi.

He’s not going to the Habs. He didn’t want to sign an offer sheet with them, so I doubt they be able to sign him as he’ll still be an RFA. And by not signing their potential offer sheet, clearly he doesn’t want to be a Hab anyways. Cool Rumor Ek

Drouin for Sergachev

That will work well. Point and Patrick Kane make up 2/3 of a Fantastic first line!!!

It's going to be a three-way trade - with a sign-and-trade for Point.

Right after Brian Burke gets Marek Svatos for the Leafs.

Larkin > Point (Who’s value has been inflated by superstars)

Sooooooo it ain’t happenin’.

Maybe he turned down discussions with MTL because he didn't want to go to MTL.

Which, to be quite honest, is probably the reaction of 80% of FAs (or RFAs) that Montreal persues...

I guarantee that nobody wants to move two firsts+ in comp. Point likely turned down the exact same deal MTL offered Aho because he believes he's worth more. He is correct, but you can't offer any higher without relinquishing 2 firsts. Montreal will keep offering that Aho contract, I doubt they'll get any bites.

Ek may have a Point here.

My sources are saying Point for Malkin so he can be the man.

3 way trade

Avs get Marner
Tampa gets Rantanen
Leafs get Point

Then Bergevin offer sheets all 3
