The NHL Trade Bait Tracker has been updated after Ryan O’Reilly was traded by the St. Louis Blues to the Toronto Maple Leafs. The March 3 Trade Deadline is just a little over two weeks away and more moves are expected in advance of that date.
Jakob Chychrun remains at the top of the list as he continues to be scratched for trade-related purposes. The same is happening in Columbus with Blue Jackets defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov. Both players will remain out until a deal is made or the deadline passes. Expectations are that this trend will continue as more sellers look to protect trade assets from injury.
