Elliotte Friedman stated that Mark Stone would \u201cfollow a similar path.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Analysis: Dorion would need time to find a suitor if either or both reject the potential deals. Both Duchene and Stone would be enticing options to a contending team. However, both players are cornerstones to a Senators club trying to rebuild. The asking price will be high if Dorion can\u2019t get Stone or Duchene to sign a long-term deal.<\/p>\n<h2>Chicago Blackhawks<\/h2>\n<p><em>Rumour: Scott Powers of The Athletic reported that a team source said that <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/krugema01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Marcus Kruger<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/kunitch01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chris Kunitz<\/a><\/strong> and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/m\/martian01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Andreas Martinsen<\/a> <\/strong>are available for trades.<\/em><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Some pregame reading: 20 thoughts on the Blackhawks  <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/kHuRajZYcn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/t.co\/kHuRajZYcn<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Scott Powers (@ByScottPowers) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ByScottPowers\/status\/1087033124368932865?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">January 20, 2019<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Analysis: Kruger is the mostly like to be traded, but he does have a modified no-trade clause of seven teams that are off-limits. Kunitz has a full no-trade clause while Martinsen has already passed through waivers.<\/p>\n<p>General manager Stan Bowman would love to clear more cap space to accelerate the Hawk\u2019s rebuild. Chicago has already cleared space, but would like have more money available for potential free agents. Both Kruger and Kunitz make $3 million and have contracts that expire at the end of the season.<\/p>\n<h2>Boston Bruins<\/h2>\n<p><em>Rumour: Joe Haggerty of NBC Sports Boston reports that the Bruins <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcsports.com\/boston\/bruins\/bruins-may-target-blues-brayden-schenn-or-vladimir-tarasenko-trade\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">might be looking<\/a> at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/blues\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">St. Louis Blues<\/a> forwards <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/s\/schenbr01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Brayden Schenn<\/a> <\/strong>and <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/t\/tarasvl01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Vladimir Tarasenko<\/a><\/strong>. Speculation has ramped up because the Blues\u2019 scouting staff has been spotted a recent Bruins games.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Analysis: Schenn has versatility of playing either the wing or forward spot. He\u2019s a hard-nosed player that would fit in with the Bruins.<\/p>\n<p>Tarasenko would be a major score for Boston and give them a high-scorer that would allow them to keep pace with the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/maple-leafs\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Toronto Maple Leafs<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/lightning\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tampa Bay Lightning<\/a> in the playoffs.

Schenn would fetch at least a first-round pick and a prospect or two. Boston would have to give up a lot more to land Tarasenko in a blockbuster deal.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/hockey\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2017\/11\/Duchene.png\" alt=\"\">STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN &#8211; NOVEMBER 10: Matt Duchene #95 of Ottawa Senators enters the ice for warmup ahead of the 2017 SAP NHL Global Series match between Ottawa Senators and Colorado Avalanche at Ericsson Globe on November 10, 2017 in Stockholm, Sweden.
