Talks are progressing between the Philadelphia Flyers and the Ottawa Senators for a potential transaction, according to information from Travis Yost of TSN.
Yost, who also announced Jacob Markstrom's trade to the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday, anticipates confirmation before the draft.
Christopher Maher suggests that the Flyers could acquire a defenseman in this move, especially given recent speculation around Jakob Chychrun in Ottawa.
The trade market is particularly active during the Stanley Cup Finals.
Wednesday saw several major transactions: Barclay Goodrow was claimed off waivers by the San Jose Sharks, who then acquired Ty Dellandrea from the Dallas Stars.
Simultaneously, the Calgary Flames moved Markstrom, and the Los Angeles Kings traded Pierre-Luc Dubois to the Washington Capitals.
