NHL Rumors: As The Pietrangelo Turns

THN: Matt Larkin discusses some possible landing spots for the St. Louis Blues defenseman. Those prominently include Toronto and Edmonton for starters. Both are in dire need for blueliners but they are not the only teams in need of a top pairing defenseman.

Toronto can offer an enticing package but cannot really afford to pay Pietrangelo after this year. They can wait for him to recover from his hand injury. It is a classic win now move for them. Pittsburgh needed Pietrangelo yesterday considering the battle they are in for a playoff spot. They arguably may not have the pieces to pull off such a deal.
