Alex Galchenyuk, LW/C, Montreal Canadiens
Galchenyuk, 24, scored 30 goals in 2015-16, but hasn't come close since. He's been moved around from center to wing and from the first line to the fourth line. He will likely benefit from a change of scenery, but the Canadiens don't have to rush to move him.
Status: Signed through the 2019-20 season
Biggest strength:Creativity
Playoff experience: 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in 28 games
Three teams that make sense: Colorado Avalanche, Columbus Blue Jackets, Minnesota Wild
Mike Hoffman, LW, Ottawa Senators
It's fair to wonder if it makes sense for the Senators to trade Hoffman, who is signed for two more seasons after this one. The 28-year-old could be part of a solution in Ottawa. However, if the return is right, Hoffman, who carries a $5.187 million cap charge, could be on the move.
Status: Signed through the 2019-20 season
Biggest strength: Shot
Playoff experience: 14 points (seven goals, seven assists) in 25 games
Three teams that make sense: St. Louis Blues, Edmonton Oilers, Buffalo Sabres
Evander Kane, LW, Buffalo Sabres
Kane, 26, can be a dynamic scorer, although his production has waned in recent weeks. That might have something to do with believing he will be traded and waiting for it to happen. The Sabres reportedly want a package that includes a first-round pick in return.
Status: Can become UFA July 1
Biggest strength: Strength on the puck
Playoff experience: None
Three teams that make sense: Pittsburgh Penguins, Columbus Blue Jackets, Los Angeles Kings
