The NHL Trade Bait Tracker is updated to reflect all the movement post NHL Draft and Free Agency. There’s still plenty of buzz around some players, however the biggest trade piece has yet to be moved in Jack Eichel.
Right behind the Sabres disgruntled center is Vladimir Tarasenko, who was told by the Blues to prepare as if he’s coming back to St. Louis.
Here’s the list of top names still out there. We will continually provide updates until the season starts.
