Daniel Nugent-Hopkins: Edmonton Oilers GM Ken Holland said that it’s unlikely that they trade for the negotiating rights of an unrestricted free agent. It’s unclear if Zach Hyman is part of that.
Jonas Siegel: Toronto Maple Leafs GM Kyle Dubas on a Zach Hyman sign-and-trade: “We’re open to anything that can help to make our team better, so if there’s fair value to be had there we’ll certainly explore it.”
Daniel Nugent-Brown of The Athletic: If the Edmonton Oilers are able to sign Hyman to an eight-year deal, the cap hit would likely be between $5 and $5.
