Pierre LeBrun of The Athletic: With just a month before the NHL trade deadline, here are where some of the major players stand. By division, it looks like this.
Metropolitan Division
Washington is one of the few teams that need little or anything except for maybe a depth piece. Pittsburgh looks to trade Alex Galchenyuk for a pick and/or depth player. A top-nine forward is still possible as Jason Zucker, Tyler Toffoli, and even Tomas Tatar are available.
The New York Islanders are looking for a top-nine forward and maybe a defenseman.
