Pavel Zacha's name has been floating around the rumor mill yet again with the off-season now here. The Fourth Period's David Pagnotta recently reported that the Boston Bruins are continuing "to take calls on" Zacha.

With Zacha being one of the Bruins' top forwards, trading him would come with some serious risk. However, with Boston reportedly hearing offers for him, let's go over three teams who could make sense as potential landing spots for the 28-year-old.

Calgary Flames

The Flames could make a lot of sense as a suitor for Zacha. It is no secret that they are looking for help down the middle, and Zacha would provide them with just that. However, he would also still boost their top six if he played on the wing.

With the Flames being a team on the rise, they also could like Zacha because of his contract. The 2015 first-round pick has an affordable $4.75 million cap hit until the end of the 2026-27 season, so he would be more than a one-year rental for them if acquired.

The Flames also have a very appealing trade candidate in defenseman Rasmus Andersson. It would take more than just Zacha for the Bruins to get him, though, of course.

Bruins Rumors: 4 Players Boston Could Trade This Summer The <a href="https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins">Boston Bruins </a>blew up their roster at the 2025 NHL trade deadline. Brad Marchand, Brandon Carlo, Charlie Coyle, and Trent Frederic were among the players the Bruins moved as a result of their terrible 2024-25 season. 

Vancouver Canucks

The Canucks are another team that stands out as a potential landing spot for Zacha if the Bruins end up moving him. After trading J.T. Miller this season, it is apparent that the Canucks would benefit by adding another center. This will be even more of the case if the Canucks end up losing Pius Suter this off-season through free agency.

When looking at Vancouver's forward group, Zacha could provide them with an upgrade at the second-line center spot over Filip Chytil. Furthermore, he would give them an option for both their power play and penalty kill. With all of this, it would be understandable if the Canucks had a player like Zacha on their radar.

Minnesota Wild

The Wild could be another club to watch when it comes to Zacha. It is apparent that they could use another top-six forward, and Zacha would give them just that if acquired. This will be especially so if the Wild end up dealing top trade candidate Marco Rossi before the season starts.

With Zacha being a versatile player, he could slot very nicely at left wing on the Wild's second line with Joel Eriksson Ek and Matt Boldy if acquired. However, he also would help the Wild if he played center, as it is one of the weaker positions on their depth chart.
