Hockey Trade Rumors

If the Edmonton Oilers and the New York Rangers are talking trade, it’s unlikely the Broadway Blueshirts would surrender left-winger Chris Kreider unless Nail Yakupov is in play.

A source close to the Rangers said the six-foot-three, 230-pound Kreider, a playoff star out of Boston College in 2012 but a disappointment last season under John Tortorella, might be the best Rangers forward right now.

Red Wings will need to trim one more player.

Jordin Tootoo appears to be the most susceptible.

Ilya Bryzgalov’s camp tryout with the Las Vegas Wranglers is over and now he continues to wait for an NHL opportunity.
