Some roster changes could help shake things up. Last Summer, Henrique inked a five year, $29.5 million contract extension. The deal includes a modified no-trade clause and activates next summer. Consequently, now is the time to\u00a0move him if that&#8217;s\u00a0Anaheim&#8217;s plan. Teams are reportedly looking at the Ducks &#8220;middle-roster&#8221; players, which suggests Henrique may be generating interest.<\/p>\n<h2>Los Angeles Kings<\/h2>\n<p><em>Rumour:<\/em> David Pagnotta tweeted that <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hockey-reference.com\/players\/k\/kovalil01.html?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ilya Kovalchuk<\/a><\/strong> is open to waiving his no-movement clause for the right situation.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Ilya Kovalchuk is willing to waive his NMC for the right situation.

With multiple clubs expressing interest, the<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/islanders\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> New York Islanders<\/a> stand out among the crowd. Certainly, Isles general manager Lou Lamoriello is searching for a versatile winger. Kovalchuk could fill the need for secondary scoring that the Isles are seeking. Pagnotta reports that the Kings would be willing to retain some of the winger&#8217;s contract, which is currently a $6.25 million cap hit for three years. The Islanders would most likely expect to cut that in half, settling at around $3.125 million.<\/p>\n<p>Another team that could be looking for some scoring on the wings is the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonhockey.com\/nhl-teams\/bruins\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Boston Bruins<\/a>.

Because his contract doesn&#8217;t contain any trade protection, the market is a little more open for him. The Flyers are deep defensively, which makes him a removable piece.
