There is plenty of NHL trade chatter around new Montreal Canadiens alternate captain and defenceman Joel Edmundson, but don’t expect Edmundson to be traded anytime soon.

CGY: Instead of signing former Pittsburgh Penguins centre Evan Rodrigues, the Calgary Flames had to settle on handing a PTO to journeyman forward Cody Eakin.

VAN: Vancouver Canucks captain Bo Horvat talked a lot with the media Monday but said nothing about his contract status. Why does it feel like Horvat, like his teammate J.T. Miller was for so long, will be the subject of NHL trade rumours soon?

National Hockey Now

BOS: Boston Bruins centre and captain Patrice Bergeron is ready to help new Bruins forward and linemate Pavel Zacha adjust while Brad Marchand is out of the lineup.

So don’t expect the Islanders to get busy on the NHL trade or free agent markets anytime soon.

PHI: The Philadelphia Flyers announced their rookie camp schedule and that it will start Thursday.

WSH: Could a Carl Hagelin comeback actually take place for the Washington Capitals?
