Though the NHL trade deadline usually lacks the intrigue of its NBA counterpart, the 2019 deadline is still shaping up to become one of the most active dealing periods in years. Sportsbooks are getting in on the fun by offering odds on the trade bait that could be changing addresses at the not-too-distant future.
BetOnline has released prop specials for five trade candidates: Artemi Panarin, Sergei Bobrovsky, Dougie Hamilton, Mark Stone and Matt Duchene. Here’s a look at the chance of every man getting dealt prior to the deadline on February 25.
Panarin and Bobrovsky
As a result of impending unrestricted free agency of Panarin and Bobrovsky, pretty much everyone and their dog in Columbus knew this was likely to be a make-or-break year to the Blue Jackets. With both Russians showing little to no interest in returning to the Jackets, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Columbus boat at least among them from town though the Blue Jackets have a 33-23-3 SU record as of February 20.
The Blue Jackets will probably be expecting a major drag for Panarin, who has 67 points in 56 games this season. The Avalanche, Islanders, Panthers, Predators and Sharks would be the likeliest suitors for the winger. Bobrovsky has struggled in his contract , but a change of scenery could assist the goaltender bounce back to his all-star caliber. Out of both, Panarin is the considerably larger trade target.
Duchene and Stone
Pretty much everything that could have gone wrong went wrong to the Ottawa Senators in the previous year, and they currently own the league’s worst album (22-32-5) as a outcome. The Duchene trade with Colorado is looking like one of the more lopsided trades lately, as the Avs own the Sens’ first-round pick in the upcoming draft. Unless Duchene is re-signed before the trade deadline, he will be on a new team for the stretch run of the effort.
Stone continues to be using the Senators organization since getting chosen in the sixth round of the 2010 NHL Entry Draft, however his time with the team could soon be coming to a conclusion. Recent reports suggest Stone has a better opportunity to re-sign with all the Senators than Duchene, but because of the seemingly constant turmoil in Ottawa, no one would blame him if he chose to sign with a different squad in the summer. If the Senators can not re-up him at the coming weeks, he could bring a great return.
Hamilton
A Boston Bruins draft choice in the 2011 draft, Hamilton is currently on his third NHL team in his seventh year in the professionals. The Carolina Hurricanes are profound on the blue line but lack scoring punch up front, and Hamilton is the only defenseman on the roster who is signed beyond this year.
There’s no lack of teams lacking defensive depth around the globe, so it wouldn’t be a shock if Hamilton is sent away for a forward before February 25.
