The NHL trade deadline is fast approaching, and teams like the Pittsburgh Penguins and Vegas Golden Knights are generating buzz. Analysts Justin Bourne and Luke Gazdic discuss the Penguins' strategy, suggesting their veteran stars Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, and Kris Letang will push management to make moves rather than rebuild. They believe the Penguins may seek trades to bolster their playoff chances despite currently being on the edge of the race.
Gazdic notes the Golden Knights, atop their division, are also intriguing as they might have plans to add significant talent. The Vancouver Canucks, with players like J.T. Miller and Elias Pettersson, are under scrutiny as their situation unfolds amid trade rumors, especially with Miller's dissatisfaction. These teams are must-watch as the deadline approaches.
