The Buffalo Sabres are enduring a challenging season, now on an 11-game winless streak after a heavy loss to the Montreal Canadiens. Trade discussions are heating up, particularly surrounding center Dylan Cozens, who has struggled despite a previous career-best season.

Rumors suggest interest from the Nashville Predators and potential deals involving the Vancouver Canucks. Meanwhile, the New York Islanders may also face tough decisions as they consider trading aging players to improve their future prospects.
