5 potential landing spots for Scott Laughton
Which teams could pay up to land Scott Laughton at this year’s NHL trade deadline?
© Eric Hartline-USA TODAY SportsThe NHL trade deadline is almost here and once again Philadelphia Flyers forward Scott Laughton finds himself in trade rumors. With the team out of a playoff race and a lack of centers on the trade market, this could be the perfect time for Danny Briere to get that first-round pick (or more) that the Flyers have wanted for the two-way forward.
Laughton, 30, has a $3 million cap hit through the end of the 2025-26 NHL season. He’s a valuable commodity for teams looking for a cheap, versatile forward who plays a gritty style of hockey.
But where could he land?
