Islanders begin Kyle Palmieri ‘trade talks’: 5 landing spots
New Jersey Devils
Trade rumors have been the hot topic around the NHL, but Jack Hughes’ injury news was the major headline on Wednesday. The star forward will miss the remainder of the season following shoulder surgery. New Jersey could either see this as a warning not to buy, or it could look to be even more aggressive to replace the 23-year-old. Palmieri is beloved by Devils fans after six years with the organization. He could add a boost to New Jersey’s lineup and so could center Brock Nelson if the Islanders would prefer to move both in the same deal.
