NHL trade market activity
Overview
During the 2026-27 season, several NHL teams have begun evaluating roster needs and potential trade targets. Early reports indicated that the Chicago Blackhawks were seeking wingers, while the Los Angeles Kings, Buffalo, and Calgary Flames were looking to bolster offense or forward depth.
By November, the trade market entered a holding pattern as general managers reportedly waited for decisions from the Detroit Red Wings regarding Dylan Larkin and Simon Edvinsson. Discussions expanded to include goaltenders, with St. Louis Blues goalie Jordan Binnington being linked to the New York Rangers and Edmonton Oilers. While some analysts suggested the Oilers pursue Binnington or Juuse Saros, others questioned the logic of such moves due to performance and contract factors. In Edmonton, goaltenders Devon Levi and Tristan Jarry have recently provided stability in the net.
Following a 4-13-1 start to the season, the Chicago Blackhawks are reportedly looking to accelerate their rebuild. According to insider Elliotte Friedman, the team is fielding inquiries regarding prospects and players capable of playing center. To acquire proven talent, Chicago may utilize various assets, including their own first-round pick, first-round picks from the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers, and multiple second-round picks. Other players mentioned in trade discussions include Jordan Greenway and Teuvo Teravainen.
