Nothing concrete in place at this time. Still lots of moving parts
The Boston Bruins have been named as a potential destination for Lindholm to land if he were traded. If traded this would be the first time in a very long time that a player was traded and then flipped just weeks later.
Reports have said that the Pittsburgh Penguins would like to wrap up a Guentzel trade in the next 24 hours.
The #Penguins are hoping to have a trade in place for Jake Guentzel by tomorrow evening. Per, Darren Dreger.
