Left winger Jake DeBrusk and defenseman Filip Hronek recently surfaced in the rumor mill as trade candidates. DeBrusk seems more likely to move given his reluctance to be part of a rebuilding club at this stage of his career. However, the right-shooting Hronek could fetch a better return if he's willing to waive his no-movement clause.

Meanwhile, Montreal Canadiens right winger Brendan Gallagher recently indicated his openness to a trade to Vancouver.

The Canadiens permitted Gallagher's agent, Gerry Johansson, to speak with other clubs to facilitate a trade. On Monday, Rick Dhaliwal of the Donnie & Dhali podcast reported that Johansson indicated the Canucks were interested in his client, but there were lots of moving parts.
