The NHL season is expected to start sometime in January or February. That gives General Managers plenty of time to assess their teams from now until then to make a big trade.
There are three big names rumored to be available and to be had in the right deal. They are Patrik Laine from the Winnipeg Jets, the Wild’s Matt Dumba, and Flames Johnny Gaudreau.

Patrik Laine wanted it well known that did not ask to be traded. He did so because of all the rumors swirling around that he was available on the market.
