Adam Kimelman: Scouts listed to attend last night’s Sabres-Flyers game include the Chicago Blackhawks (2), Calgary Flames, Pittsburgh Penguins, Toronto Maple Leafs, Minnesota Wild, Montreal Canadiens, Buffalo Sabres, Winnipeg Jets, Carolina Hurricanes, Los Angeles Kings, and Detroit Red Wings.
Jim Matheson: Winnipeg Jets defenseman Josh Morrissey is a perfect comparable for Edmonton Oilers pending RFA defenseman Darnell Nurse. Morrissey carries a $6.16 million salary cap hit. They play close to the same amount of minutes and are close in points. Nurse’s agent could be looking at Jacob Trouba‘s $8 million per season deal.
