Ross Colton Lands on the Trade Radar as Summer Squeeze Builds

Ross Colton is the kind of player front offices start circling when the offseason gets tight and the cap math turns ugly. He brings enough bite and value to matter, but that also makes him exactly the sort of name that can surface in trade chatter when teams need to shuffle pieces without blowing up the whole room. The rumor mill always gets louder when a useful middle-six forward shows up on a list like this, and that usually means somebody, somewhere, is already doing the spreadsheet dance.
